Oh! Exciting news! There's one more great-nephew on the way right now! I just saw on FB that Tim's niece is at the hospital and is in labor with baby #2. So exciting!

And what's totally weird but I swear I'm not making up is that last night I dreamed about holding a baby and trying to teach it a basic vocabulary. (It was like a 3-month-old, so dream!me was pretty optimistic.)

Ovarial would sound nicer. Is Chomsky a good speaker?

Oh- I haven't gone (yet)- I just keep getting emails regarding Noam Chomsky's seminal-ness. Blech.

I also just added Kim Kelly to a contract. It made me laugh, but not as much as the woman whose email address is tpaine. We also have a Sharon Stone working here.

Luckily I got everything taken care of after work, so I am now the owner of a new Mazda 3!

Mazda 3s are ridiculously popular here in Australia. For the last three years it's been fighting with the Toyota Corolla for our best-selling car. (We have a Corolla.)

(We have a Corolla.)

Woo! Corolla solidarity!

Colleagues, I admit that I'm a little cranky today, but you seem to be making an extra effort to get on my bad side. I recommend you cease before I threaten to cut you.

No love,
me

Yay! Tim's niece had her baby (that was fast) -- a whopping 10 pounds, no lie. I winced when I read that.

I also have a Corolla.

I'm not going to start any new tasks now. I'm leaving on time today, dammit.

Congrats to your bro, Steph!

eta And Tim's niece!

It's 73 degrees in here and I'm freezing. What the heck is wrong with me?

Zen, that happens to me sometimes. No idea why.
