A thirty something tomboy gets a present from the stork: ...."We've also discovered that she will bring whatever is in her hands to her mouth. ...Mostly there's nothing in arm's reach to swallow, except mom's hair, which has been falling out in droves (another neat pregnancy trick). Do babies get hairballs?"....

This week; will it never end?
The day before I passed the time by challenging my office mate to prove to me that the sun had risen that day, which caused him so much consternation that yesterday he spent the day working from home and I had the whole
Civil Semantics
Wednesday, 29 November 2006 6:54 A GMT-05
Bush's reason for saying it isn't a civil war seems to have to do with the mistaken belief that if someone else is "fomenting" the violence (and such a big word for such a little president!), especially if that someone is named Al Qaida, it isn't rea

The Network Administrator watches a lot of movies and as a result you'd think he would know better, but apparently he still believes that movies should exactly reflect reality, especially in the realm of physics. So if set off, he'll rant on fo

We had enough time on our hands to find out what domestication would be really like if only we had time for it.
First was Turkey Day, which was very nice, with the evil weather holding off until just before we got into the car to travel to my mother

Yay! It's arrived! It's here! I'm so happy!
What?? What??
It's Wednesday!
Normally I treat Thanksgiving with some amount of anxiety, usually because either on Wednesday evening or Thursday morning we have to get into our car and

Most likely to motivate us and stimulate our over all morale, the powers that be at work declared Dress Down Day for the whole week, or at least until Wednesday--they don't care much what we wear on Thanksgiving Day. It was generous of them, ce

I know I live in a small state amidst other relatively small states but I still get miffed when it gets deleted from New England all together, especially, as I've always maintained, as Vermont clearly can't stand up on it's own without sturdy N

I am beginning to figure out why I was hired in the first place.
Three days ago, the VP of Admin mentioned casually that they were going to "swap printers" from the upstairs to the downstairs, and while they were at it, they were going to

Ugh.
It's another gloomy day, with rain and floods forecast; can't it just rain in the evenings after I've gone to bed? Trent Lott has made a comeback, all the big names are running for president in 2008, Kofi Annan once again chided world lea

It's another cloudy day with rain in the forecast, and it's been dark in the mornings again, and I don't like it. I also don't really approve of the warmer weather, though it certainly extends the life of our wood supply downstairs. It's
Easy Passage

It takes us about four and a half hours to get to New York City, barring any major traffic problems. We met up with a couple slow downs and once we even came to a standstill, but all in all it was pretty good, for New York anyway. Still,

You can pretty much spot a New Yorker instantly anywhere you go. I haven't quite pinned it down yet; it's not necessarily dress, although that can definitely be a part of it, and it's not always accent, it's mostly an attitude that only c

Sometimes my fellow modern humans surprise me.
My co-worker seems to be a fairly intelligent, liberal minded being. He's easy to get along with and he understands my sense of humor, which is crucial since my sense of humor frequently bord

Boy, you've been asleep for an awful long time. For a while there we thought you might be dead; we simply couldn't wake you.

It must be November; even the leaves from the Norway Maples (invasive) have finally fallen off.
It used to be that I could walk blissfully down the road or in the woods and notice nothing but green or appreciate a particularly startling shade of red

Hey look! Snow!
Well the good times had to end sometime. Most likely the stuff falling on my still torn up lawn won't accumulated, but still it's a sign none of us should ignore: the winter season is upon us. Pick up your toys and
Scary things in the workplace

All of the costume ideas I ever come up with end up having to do with garbage bags.
This time, the prospects were bleak; the IT Department was stodgily ignoring the pleas from the coordinators of the company Hallowe'en party to dress up, dec
