Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I was posting during the early stages of labor for both kids. Not while pushing.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Yay, baby Rose! Congratulations Kate and Mark!

Didn't someone post *during* labor, or am I delusional?

Deena, I think?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Posting at the beginning of labor sounds right to me -- as a person who has never been in labor! But isn't there a lot of killing time at the beginning? For many people, at least?

I would love to have a mental health day today -- or at least a hide-out-in-my-office day, but I have a stupid interview! At least I'm doing the interviewing so I don't have to be that impressive, but I guess I'll change my shoes.

FWIW, my CV is only 10 pages.

Not FORTY!

Mine is forty, but I work in a research university where it is kind of hard to explain what you do in the abstract.

"What is it that you do, exactly?"

Well, I teach two hours a week. For half of the year, at least.

"And?"

And I think about things.

"Yes?"

Hard things.

"Oh?"

Uh, here is my Vita. It's all there.

Hey, so Yo Is This Racist kind of already addressed the "ethnic food" question:

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yay! Welcome baby Rose! We've long awaited your arrival.

Happy birthday, Isaac!

Babies and birthdays!

But isn't there a lot of killing time at the beginning? For many people, at least?

Yup. Posting during labor doesn't surprise me much. Posting while pushing would be crazy cakes.

We've got a nice little Buffista cohort spanning from Average White Baby to Sammy to Rose through Daisy's baby.

Matilda's in a cohort with Olivia and Dillo, and I think Noah and Grace.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Vegans of Color also looked at the ethnic food thing: [link]

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

mental health day

well the tree service people do not do evenings or saturday appts. plus it is take your kid to work day (but not for mac - 5th graders have testing) and the offices are going to be in disarray all day. plus plus - all the people I directly support are out of the office and another co-worker is out with flu. as soon as tree guy gets here and is done with what he needs me for, I am going back to bed.

ION - the house across the street from me is FOR RENT. 4br 2 bath for $1200 plus ME as a neighbor, omg I want a friend as neighbor.
