Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

My shoulder is feeling much better and I got to spend the better part of the day with a 5 month old on my lap. He ultimately fell asleep on me.

I just need something to counter the worrying pain in my left thumb. Something isn't right in the joint, and I don't want to incur more medical bills.

I'm so sorry, Consuela.

Huh. I couldn't tell it from looking in the mirror, but apparently I've lost 7 lbs. since last Sunday night. I was bracing myself for no weight loss at all given my mental tracking of food eaten vs. output. Particularly since I weighed after tonight's dinner, which included the better part of a pound of my mom's meatloaf and a 20 oz. diet soda.

For some boundary's sake... I'll start anew.

I'm working as the the lead on a writing contest sponsored by a local foreign-language paper. We are to create a guidebook for the writing. My boss says, "NO ADVICE" and wants us to use just annotated student samples. Okay. The age ranges for the competition are Grades 3-4, 5-6, 7-8, and then high school. I have samples for middle and high, but elementary samples are scarcer.

Also, I have to think about the prompts. I have one for Grades 3-4, 6-8 and high school and some ideas for 5-6. But I'm a little overwhelmed by all of this.

Noah just came in and gave me a kiss and said, "I feel like Chicago is going to win."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks -- I will.
