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?"....

Fun in the Sun

Tuesday, 31 July 2007 5:47 A GMT-05
I began drinking coffee when I was 11 or 12 or so.  I'm not sure I liked the stuff at first, but I was sure it was a sign of maturity.  I've been pretty much unabashedly addicted to caffeine since then, although the whole pregnancy/

Finding someone to blame

Two news television helicopters collided yesterday while excitedly covering a high speed police chase in Phoenix, Arizona.  All the 24 hour news media outlets immediately switched their hyper coverage of the chase to the new, exciting collision

Getting what you want

It's hard to get what you want.  Sometimes you really have to work at it, sweat it out, burn the midnight oil.  Luck is involved too.  That's why this lawsuit is so clever.I lived for a while next to a Cumberland Farms which w

Playing Politics

I think the Democratic hopefuls will have a smooth ride after they finally decide who among them will be the shining leader.  After all, Bush is practically doing their work for them.  Not to be outdone, some of his administration staff i

Random Notes

There so much exciting stuff in the news today I don't even know where to start.  For instance, researchers found that if you don't understand you're not supposed to drink bleach, you're likely to die young.  Those hipster

Public Service Gone Awry

Monday, 23 July 2007 1:13 P GMT-05
First we heard the terrible news that Dick "Darth Vader" Cheney was suddenly the President of the United States.   What tragedy had befallen the Bush?  Had he been kidnapped by Osama?  Had he finally had a fatal bicycling acc

Poor Excuses

This part time work thing is driving me batty.Yesterday I left my place of employment at 2:30 to go to a conference which lasted until 7:30pm.  The next two working days (Friday and Monday) I will spend at home, playing mommy.  Normally whe

Riding in the Rain

Thursday, 19 July 2007 5:41 A GMT-05
Yesterday was Ride To Work day, but nobody, aside from myself and one other hard-luck case, rode in.  It was raining, you see.Today I won't be riding in since I am going to an offsite business meeting and commuting with my boss and I rather

Even that much vaunted (but curiously inert) maternal instinct can't keep me away from the lure of salmon in Newfoundland.So I'm leaving the bundle 'o joy in the more than capable hands of her father, along with the five days of breastmil

Keeping the Freedom Fires Burning

Thursday, 5 July 2007 5:42 A GMT-05
I went into town yesterday to refill our diesel container, since field making is apparently thirsty work for the tractor.  While at the Irving gas station I was subjected to some horribly offensive country western song about being a soldier on t

Scooting Justice

Tuesday, 3 July 2007 5:32 A GMT-05
After his puppet courts got uppity and refused to save his fall guy Lewis "the Scoot Man" Libby, Bush had to take matters into his own hands.  After all, prison is stressful, especially on special celebrity types such as Paris Hilton a

[Photo Album] A Field Is Born

This is what we do in our spare time; destroy thriving forests and assert our dominion over the resulting field.Behold.It has taken us three years to get to this point;
