The wii fit is kind of picky, Hil. I ignore it most of the time although sometimes I will snipe back.
Come on out, River. The nice man wants to kidnap you.

I cuss the little bastard out. Regularly.

If you exercise every day it says, "That takes real dedication, I"m impressed!" But if you miss one day it says, "Too busy to work out yesterday, eh?" It doesn't seem to have any neutral statements.

I wonder if wearing an ankle brace on one ankle will mess up the signals too much. I tried it with just bare feet this time, but my ankle started hurting a bit.
I really ought to get a battery recharger. The Wii stuff seems to just eat through them.

I just spent all afternoon holding the calmest newborn I have ever met.
Newborn's are usually pretty calm. They mostly sleep. It's after all the friendly family help goes away that they start to run you ragged.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Aw, Kristin. I'm sorry. I'd totally hit the stores with you. Can you put off shopping until September?

I need to expand my fruit palate. The past few weeks, I'm pretty much just been having blackberries, cherries, and citrus. I've bought a few peaches at the farmers market, but it annoys me that they're too hard for a long time, then ripe for about an hour, and then just mush. I need something with a better shelf life. I don't think I like raspberries. Blueberries and strawberries are OK. I know I don't like plums. I like dried apricots, but I've never tried fresh. I'm sick of apples. I like mangos, but they're expensive. What else should I try?

I think the trick to peaches is to make sure you are getting local picked the day before by people who know what they are doing. Which I don't know. But I got lucky following the swarm Saturday to the vendor adverting "picked yesterday" who was giving out advice and telling people to only buy as much as they could eat in 4 days, rather that until the next FM. I've eaten 3 of the 6 peaches and each one has only gotten better.
As for other fruit, I have no clue. Except I got white apricots from TJs and I love. But I love apricots in all forms. They were big at the FM, but I already had enough.

Various kinds of melons? You could also try kiwis and pears, although the pears might have problems similar to the peaches.
