I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Like he's The Goddamn Goatman!

Technically, mountain goats aren't goats. They're in between goats and antelopes, like musk oxen.

MY dept is having me buy cameras and some other offices stuff via amazon - off to use our link to get b.org $$ wheee!

Does anyone know what affiliate links actually bring in? and/or what % on a sale they give?

I stole All the Sleep yet it still was not enough. Yesterday we rode our bikes plus a kid trailer to a local coffee shop. The ride there was terrifying but quick. The ride back was awful. I walked more than half of it as it had an elevation gain of at least 750 feet in less than .75 of a mile.

I am now tired and weirdly sore (from yoga yesterday). I need more vacation.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I definitely should know those! And could find them out... Give me a minute.

Good news on the refund, msbelle!

And cool news: Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda were seen destroying poachers' snares.

Awesome.

Today is Rose's three-month birthday! To celebrate, she's graduating from sleeping in her Rock'N'Play to sleeping in her crib (which is actually a Pack'N'Play, though there is little family resemblance). She's been napping in it for almost an hour now, which is exciting, but makes me suspicious -- it shouldn't be this easy! I predict some major fussing before long, probably bedtime.

OK, off Amazon in the past year, we have earned $106.94, 4-6% of the purchase price of each item.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I have to remember to use the affiliate link.

Go Rose!!! Sleep in that crib.

Ya on refund money, msbelle.

I had maybe 4 hours sleep. I am SLAMMED at work and am forcing myself to take the occasional break to try to avoid mental overload. Gah. A year ago I was scrabbling for work, so I'm trying not to complain, but yowza. I need to get better organized. I normally work paperless, but I think I'm going to need to restart a paper notebook with lists so I don't drop any of the flaming chainsaws I have in the air.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The day isn't two hours old, and I'm failing so hard. I don't even know...
