Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

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

Norwegian Lundehunds are one of the new breeds this year. They're known for being polydactyl.

I read that as saying that they're known for being pterodactyls. Which would be quite awesome.

Oh Sue, sorry for the travel suckiness.

YAY for ita's nurse! Non-hands reiki apparently works according to my decidely not-woo-woo skeptical yoga instructor (yes. that really is a good descriptor for her. She spends a lot of time cursing in yoga class).

In other news, I wore foundation for the first time this school year and my first group of kids told me I looked really white and the next group said I looked sick. AWESOME.

Grace has surgery tomorrow and she's a ball of stress around it. Poor noodle.

Because books.

The bakery on the way to work will have fasnacht tomorrow, and I'm getting some. I wonder why it seems to be called fasnacht here more often than paczki.

Good god. Someone hold me.

I don't mind split infinitives. And I obviously have no issue with prepositions ending a sentence or conjunctions starting one. But non parallel structure makes me nutty.

Aw, man, It was almost easier when Grace was unaware of upcoming surgery, but otoh, she's so awesome now!

Maria also had travel woes due, I presume, to the storm, but she's safely in the air now.

And that dog digging in the snow? That's Loki's response to snow. Though less gleeful. But just as driven. I wish I knew what he's trying to accomplish.

She is so awesome now! Today I was on the phone at dinner and she was imitating me. When I got tired of the preadmissions crap she actually said, "Oh my god!" and rolled her eyes.

Also, Noah is loving the Harry Belafonte version of the Banana Boat Song ("what language is this in, mom?") and we have created Grace signs for it.

sara, to find the bottom of the snow, naturally.

Ahahah, oh, Gracie. Tickled the drama llama sign is still in play.

I'm not sure how I ended up with 2 such canine cats. Though Loki trumps Pumpkin in that respect. Cause she's more devious.

I can't wait to see N&G this TG. I still am sorry I didn't get to see them this year. I'm pretty sure I'll be shocked by their growth.
