It’s been an interesting weekend so far. Hurricane Dennis hasn’t done any damage here, but it’s dumping a lot of rain on us. I woke up yesterday, at 6:15am, to the sound of Ian moaning from his crib. When I went in to check on him, he seemed to be moaning in his sleep, so [...]
Randomness Part II
July 8, 2005
I didn’t make this up. Someone else did. I’m just telling you that there is a actually a website called Alien Loves Predator. It, well, just go see for yourself. I don’t have strong feelings about Hummers (the vehicles), but apparently this guy does. I cannot imagine devoting this much time to disliking an automobile. [...]
No Friend of Mine
July 8, 2005
When I was in the hospital, on bedrest, before the squad was born, I didn’t have many option of what to watch on TV. I had basic cable in my room, so I could get ESPN, but they didn’t offer Bravo, or HBO, or MTV or anything like that. The good news was that it [...]
I am finally the demographic.
July 8, 2005
I might have mentioned this before, but when I was home pregnant with the squad, I watched a lot of the NFL Network. I got laid off from my last job exactly two days before I found out that I was expecting. That was October 11, 2003. On November 4, 2003, the NFL Network was [...]
Priorities out of whack.
July 7, 2005
My earthlink homepage had these as the top 5 news stories as of 2:25pm on July 7, 2005. U.S. Raises Alert to Orange for Transit High-Speed Internet Use Rises 34 Percent Jolie, Pitt Taking Home Ethiopian Orphan Stocks Fall Modestly on London Attacks Four London Blasts Kill 40, Injure 700 Seriously, Angelina Jolie and Brad [...]
Randomness
July 7, 2005
I don’t know what Claudia has done to the birds, but it sounds like it’s playing “You fill up my senses”, by John Denver. That just can’t be right. (It’s actually called “Annie’s song”, I think). In case anyone was wondering if they could get up on some Pope Pez , the answer is yes. [...]
…and with the first pick of the 2005 draft, Sarah takes…
July 7, 2005
I was just checking my e-mail and I got a message from NFL.com that I can now sign up for fantasy football. Now I am excited. I’m not holding my breath that the Bucs will make the playoffs this year, but I feel confident that I can kick some butt at fantasy football. I honestly [...]
Just keep that Steelers machinery humming
July 6, 2005
I’m a football fan and all, but this freak is an extremist. (Thanks to Frank for pointing this one out). I’m thinking that if I could refrain from trying to talk Gabe into naming any of our children Gruden or John Lynch, then this guy should be able to get into a regular coffin like [...]
Daddy’s Little Girl
July 6, 2005
There is an absolute truth to the father/daughter phenomenon. When I was pregnant with the squad, the first time Gabe felt Claudia kick, he told her he would buy her a pony. This is 100% true. I have no idea why he said it. There is a chance he might have even meant it. Exhibit [...]
Gabe says I should just get over this.
July 5, 2005
So, I was watching Maisy yesterday. How can a mouse be friends with an alligator? How can they be that close to the same size? Wouldn’t the alligator eat their other friend, the chicken? Gabe says “It’s a cartoon!”, but he is also the one who pointed out that you can see all the animal’s [...]
If you say so
July 4, 2005
Look at this kid’s “Google Knows Best” entry. Ian would get along with this family. For those of you that are hockey fans, Sergei Federov’s mugshot is actually the best picture of him I have ever seen. He usually looks much more corpse-like. Gabe told me about this and it was also on The Sports [...]
