*Sigh* My earlier assessment that Willow wasn't in too much pain seems to have been premature. When the meds are in full swing in her system she's pretty much okay, but dissolves in to sobs otherwise. When she *is* feeling okay, it's very hard to keep her from trying (unsuccessfully) to stand on the broken leg, and I think that may be adding to ( Read more... )

A few weeks ago, I discovered that my high school graduating class had a myspace page. Now, there aren't many people from high school I'm all that interested in contacting, but when I'm super bored I wade around the friends list with a little bit of nostalgia.

I was looking into the upcoming movie "The Golden Compass" (currently being blasted in some circles for being anti-Christian), and I found that it has a pretty cute website. On it, there is a test to find your "daemon" (a kind of totem). Here's my tentative daemon - he might be slightly altered depending on everyone's response.

I love living in Athens. It's beautiful, there are nice people, and I'm (mostly) enjoying my job. More importantly, any place my husband and baby are is home. I'm just experiencing one of those moments of desperately missing my clan. It's very tough for me to realize that I can't rush over to my friends' houses at a moment's notice (or a day' ( Read more... )

Brandon, Willow, and I are officially moved into our new house. I love this house! Of course, it's a crazy mess from moving - but it's much *less* of a crazy mess thanks to Brandon's amazing housekeeping (he'll make an excellent housewife yet!). I'm still adjusting to my work schedule, which pretty much means I'm either working, sleeping, or ( Read more... )
