A Great Name For a Band

"Hurley's Food Stash".

No royalties necessary if you use it.

Hey, and Shocho: I just got conked on the head by the Beta Fairy. I'm about to see if it will let me convert or if my blog is too buff to fit through the do'. Wish me luck.

A Reason For Me to Watch Heroes

But, once you're the Doctor, isn't anything a step down?

He was so good on Doctor Who. That might get me to try Heroes again.

Put Up the Tree a Little Early

I do love the tree. As we still don't know if we'll be here at home for Christmas or not, I decided to put the tree up now so we'd have plenty of time to enjoy it either way. Of course, last year, we ended up taking it down in March, but we had the "tiny baby" excuse.

This was just after I finished decorating it. I had to tear the basement apart looking for that last flat of ornaments. It had her "Baby's First Christmas" ornaments in it, as well as most of my other favorites.

Now we just have to keep the B away from it. Argh.

Best of Craigslist

The Best of Craigslist is a hit-and-miss affair. The hits, though, are really, really funny. (Some NSFW.)

Some of my favorites of what's on there right now?

Married Means MARRIED, You Moron

Don't Touch Me (Pregnancy Rant)

Tuesday Night on the CW

I'm Sick of the Ads

I'm so glad the nasty campaign ads will be gone after today. So sick of them. Of course, some of them have been really ridiculous. Here's one I found on the ad company's server. I guess they decided it wasn't fit for airing. (If it doesn't animate, click on it to view it by itself.)



As soon as the baby's up and fed, I'm off to vote, hoping to miss the post-work rush. Don't even get me started on how hard it was to find a list of all the ballot measures I would see once I'm in the booth. They rail at us for not being well-informed enough, but it took me over an hour with Google and three different sources before I found a non-partisan look at the ballot in my zip code. It's a disgrace.

How To:

How To Tell You Have a Baby:

You find popcorn, popped, in the microwave at the end of the day, long forgotten.

How To Tell You Are Sick and Have a Baby:

You don't remember if you put it in there yesterday or today.

How To Tell You Are Overtired, Sick, and Have a Baby:

You eat it.

Most Useless Item Ever

The chiming paper towel holder. But at least, for only $5.95, you can buy a two year replacement guarantee.

The one I have is so much better, isn't it? And it cost less than the replacement guarantee on the other one.

Eleven Months



In the continuing effort to turn my blog into "OMG I <3 my baby" all the time, she turned 11 months old today.

First year's nearly over. Hard to imagine that someday sooner than I realize it, I'll be asked how old she is and I'll answer in years and not months.

Happy monthday, B.
