The downside to Cleaning All The Things is that you know they're just going to get dirty again. Weren't we supposed to have nanobots for this sort of thing by now?

I'm in full on preggo-nesting mode so my home is marginally cleaner than usual, but with the internet so readily available, Clean All The Things is frequently superceded by Buy All The Things. I should bring up D's newborn stuff from the basement so I can have a visual reminder that I already Have All The Things.

When are you due?

Right? Where are my nanobots? And I would have clean things if Some People in this house wouldn`t insist on using them all the time, eating and wearing clothes and stuff just constantly. It`s ridiculous.

Oh, man. Today's nurse was so good. She got me out of the hospital in time for me to be home for the 6am conference call. And she was completely fascinating conversationally, even though she was a bit of a wuss about getting a line in.

And no more work calls until 11! Whoot.

It was that kind of nap. That couch is awesome.

It is, kinda. Best TV commercial-inspired purchase ever.

Hopefully this is it (cue Huey Lewis and the News voice), Drew.

When are you due?

Dec 31. And since D was born in the summer, there are some things I really do need, but seriously, newborn babies just do not wear that many clothes. (I went yard-saleing today and came back with at least 5 pink fleece buntings. This is too many. I know this. And yet, there they are.)

Jessica, Sara was born on Nov. 29, so the stuff I have to send to you should be exactly right, size and season-wise. There's not much, but there's some!

Dec 31.

Fun! And I can't believe there is such a thing as too many pink fleece buntings.

Yay for good nurses, ita! They make such a difference.

Of course it is! Just not, you know, golf-ball size.

Heh. Yes. Praise the gods, not that big.

Hey, one that big would have gotten him on TV!

Glad to hear they were able to do something concrete to improve Drew's condition. I'm surprised they didn't schedule the ERCP much earlier during his previous hospitalization - Mom and Dad both had theirs within 4 days of admission this summer, and I know in Dad's case the CAT scan wasn't even able to find his gall bladder, let alone the stone.

I'm so glad to hear Drew is doing better. Yay for modern medicine!

I went to a very cool play last night, and ended up in the front row, so I got to stare at Mandy Patinkin being crazy-obsessive for a couple of hours.

Now I must vacuum and write and make cake frosting, and go to my Dad's birthday party. Oh, and buy a gift! Argh! So much for writing. Maybe later.

Have a lovely Sunday, all.
