We ate in what may be the nicest restaurant in Carl-Bad.  I say this because the atmosphere elicited the comment from Carrie that it didn't "feel like" we were Carl-Bad at all.  Good food, relaxed atmosphere, I'd go back ( Read more... )

The week has rolled right along and here we are.  Took the babies in to daycare to drop off paperwork and meet the baby room staff.  Nice folks.  Carrie's pretty sad about going back to work.  But only three months or so of daycare and they'll be home every day for the summer.

Got my new bluetooth handset.  That's right, handset.  Sweet!  Also, some ( Read more... )

The experimental excursion went ok last night.  We decided to go out to Las Trancas.  As we drove over there both kids woke up and started crying like crazy, so we decided to bag it and head on home.  About 5 minutes after we passed the restaurant they both fell asleep so we turned around and went back.  Got the car seats set up on the high chairs ( Read more... )

Went in to work yesterday, was there for two hours when they evacuated the building.  A water main had broken and was flooding the downstairs.  So, two hours of work and I got the rest of the day, and today off of work.  Thanks, Snowpocalypse ( Read more... )

Got up today to winter fantabuloso-land.  Called in to the weather hotline for work and it said "2 hour delay."  Was sitting around enjoying a coffee, contemplating whether or not to call into work a few hours later when my boss called and said the site was closed, stay home.  FTW ( Read more... )

The crud faded a lot slower from me than it did from Carrie.  But I was back up to full speed by Thursday.

Which meant more DeadElf D&D on Friday.  We dungeon crawled around, bumblefucked through some traps, and killed a nest of kruthiks.  Then we learned that our ruined elf city had been put that way by devils.  So we captured and cowed a duergar ( Read more... )

The sickness stays with me still.  Tons of congestion (the painful headache-y kind) with occasional sneezing and/or coughing.  I wonder if it might be some kind of sinus infection that stemmed from catching whatever Carrie had.  Partly this comes to mind because I don't appear to have passed it on to the kids.  Still trying to mostly keep my ( Read more... )

Carrie caught some kind of cold.  I got it shortly after, around Saturday morning.  Dealing with babies while sick, unsurprisingly, not fun.  Not sure if the kids caught it, since it's pretty mild.  They've been a little extra fussy and woke up more than normal last night but nothing big ( Read more... )

The trip, all things considered, went well.  After getting backscattered, pat down, and my bag run through the x-ray twice, the flight was fine.  Dad picked me up at the airport with and we headed down toward Brookhaven, detouring briefly to the only liquor store even close to Lincoln county.  It was closed, but at least Dad had had the forethought ( Read more... )

Outta here in just a little while.  Forgot to mention that since around Sunday night the twins have been sleeping through the night even more than they were.  Typically they'll go to bed around 8 or 9 and have been sleeping till 6 or 7 all week.  I thought Sunday had been an anomaly but with it continuing, hey, maybe it'll stick.  That's not to say ( Read more... )
