I'm studying... or trying to and need some distraction, so a la pants_of_doom, tell me something funny.

I've spent the last week or two very carefully not posting because I was sure that if I posted I'd mention something about going to BOSTON last weekend which would have ruined the surprise for Mark and Stony who both turned 30 in the last few days.

I was not ready for this! I was ready for a baby. A nice immobile baby, not a crawling, getting into everything, can't-turn-your-back-for-one-second pre-toddler. Oh, did I forget- throw things on the floor, rip pages out of books, cut himself on a can (and those little tiny fingers are really hard to bandage), roll out of bed and crawl halfway ( Read more... )
