Yes, I did. I've just been slack about answering it. Sorry.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Our wings are not tired.
No problemo - just wanted to make sure it got there. No hurry - go enjoy All of the Seafood!

Just caught up, and what a heartening ride it was, Natter today.
Missed the boat on adding to the discussion, but:
Just for the record, I am giving a lot of credit to Natter for the fact that I got dressed and left the house today.
Natter was amazing today. It made, like, everyone feel better if they needed it, or just good if they didn't need to feel better, particularly.
I asked Olivia to get me a Diet Coke from the fridge this summer and she asked, "does that make me your bitch?" Minionhood depends on the kid, I think.
Oh, my god that is priceless.
And, congratulations, KateP!

Now tagless for your comfort.
All the actors spoke whatever they were posting, never looking at each other, and also gave hilarious asides.
That's what I was thinking of! The writing would have to be top-notch to carry that through a series, though!

That sounds like an interesting play!
I went to dinner with my Supperclub friends (we go to fancy dinners once a month-ish, and call ourselves Superfantastic Supperclub). It was a place Plei recommended (Bastille) and it was very yum. We spent $160 before tip, the three of us. Wow.
And now I have to PACK. And figure out what to wear (a) to look sexy and (b) to not collapse in the heat. I'm not sure I can achieve both at once. Eek.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Best wishes for your pregnancy, Kate. I did suspect when I got your message about feeling really sick. I hope it passes quickly; the only thing that was really bad for me was brushing my teeth. I do not recommend ceasing to brush your teeth - you'll pay for it later. Literally.
I got pregnant with Casper 3 months after we moved to NC, and we moved cities while I was pregnant with her, but pregnancies and then babies do create friendships. Plus, we have the friendly people in the internets! It was great for me to be pregnant at the same time as Burrell (and our babies are EIGHT!! now).

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Oh Kate!! How exciting!! I am so thrilled for you and DH.
As for raising kids away from family, Joe and I had Em 2500 miles away from ours and while it is challenging and I definitely felt the same way you do, it was awesome and like so many others said, we created our own community through daycare and parent's groups.

Trust my rage
Kate, congratulations! And like flea mentioned, if you want to be pregnancy buddies, please email! (okay, that sounds sort of pathetic on my part but I don't have any pregnant friends at the moment and pregnancy related boards drive me insane so I'd be happy to chat any time, even if you just want to chat about feeling like crap.)
