Nope. Not there. Curious. Maybe I should just call Cedars.

What about searching the hospital name in your email, Kat? Would there have been someone you kept in the loop that way?

My baby has slept an hour longer than I would have predicted. Did I use the time wisely? Of course not.

Nope. I clean my email regularly. I mean like weekly.

ARGH.

I will have to call Cedars on Monday and speak to medical records and get the info that way.

I never use my extra hour wisely when Noah sleeps. And now he is awake.

And I gained a pound yesterday. All on stoopid salad. Gr.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am out of the house. All praise uncle g. The plan was for me to go to church, but I am pretty positive that would lead to lots of crying, so I think I might go on a photo walk, possibly my old upper west side stomping grounds.

Ion, I seem to have put away all my nail polish somewhere that I cannot find. I want to paint my toes, so I think I'll buy some polish today. Does anyone know if sephora still has those teeny tiny bottles?

Sara, there was a piece on npr this morning about a b'more smooothie guy at farmer's mrkt who has bike powered blenders.

“Not dead yet!”

I've actually enjoyed Twitter a whole lot more than I thought I would. Facebook is still of the debbil and with their latest shenanigans, I've actually deleted my account. Now I just have to wait the fourteen days without logging in (sneaky about that, they are) and it will be no more. If I restart one, closer to the book's release, I'll do it as a "fan" or "like" page or whatever they're calling it these days.

Only thing left after that is my blog-- I'm probably going to move my entire website over to wordpress, so I'll integrate the blog over there and be done with LiveJournal.

And I really do need to be thinking of new designs for my website. My editor thinks I should have it up by around three months before the book's release, which gives me some time, but still-- I don't want to be rushing, especially since Lewis is going to be building it for me this time and I don't want to have to kill him.

Compassionately intolerant

Sigh.

I was quoted in the Washington Post this morning. Which, considering the writer spelled both my name (seemingly a feat unto it self) AND my pet coaching business correctly, should be a good thing.

She also mentioned that I teach good pet citizen classes to help pet people get along with non-pet people in public spaces.

And yet, she ended the article with the most cynical thing I said in a very carefully worded 20 minute interview!

And, weirdly, the article somehow turned into something entirely different than what she presented as the crux.

I thought to identify myself in the comment section and maybe say something encouraging but...oh...the comments. Nevermind.

One person took the trouble to find my website (not mentioned in the article...thank god) and send me a little diatribe. So, that was nice.

Any publicity is good publicity, I guess.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm scared of the twitter. I don't need to get involved in any more things to do online!

I like twitter much more than Facebook, but given the sometimes miraculous works done on FB (namely finding a favored dog a new home), I won't give it up entirely. I rarely ever post anything personal there...or on twitter, for that matter.

As for celeb tweeters, I especially like Neil Gaiman and Stephen Fry but have unfollowed some celebs I thought would be great. (Sorry Nathan, love ya)

My favorite faux celeb is SergeGraystone from Caprica.

ION, I'm all full of devilled eggs. Blergh. Also, why do I always eat at inappropriate times on the weekend? I'm going to be starving mid-afternoon, but need to be ready to eat an early-ish dinner!

In other other news, I feel like my one geeky coworker must be fannish, so I'm trying to throw stuff out there and see what she picks up. So far, not Leverage. (The word comes up a lot at work...)
