Happy belated birthday, Casper!

In honor of Saturday being Casper's birthday, here's the video I shot of her very first real word. This was Nov. 4, 2004 (my mother's birthday, which is why I was taking photos of Casper, who was 14 months old) and I happened to catch it on film. [link]

A very clever girl, indeed!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So I rode my bike to downtown Evanston for lunch. On the way there I noticed the front wheel was crooked and wobbly. Once I parked the bike I noticed one of the nuts that holds the front wheel in place was completely loose.
So I stopped at a bike shop in downtown Evanston and they fixed it for me. Took a guy about 20 seconds and they didn't charge me.
I love it when a small crisis is quickly resolved without excess anxiety on my part.

Self reality check: am I the only one who's seeing red when she sees someone spell something she has strong feelings to wrong?
Context: I got a CouchSurfing request from a guy who claims that "You're vegetarian and into indie stuff like Afghan Wings, so we have some things in common", and therefor I should host him. Which is hey, fine, but...
Afghan Wings.
Afghan Wings.
Afgh... ahem.
Seriously. If you can't spell the name of the band I hold so dearly to my heart right, or name it's genre right, and you say you like them too, I guess we don't have that much in common after all.
I'm petty, I know. But it's just wrong, you know? And I might be petty, but I prefer to do some things, like spelling, right.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You would refuse to host a person because of a spelling mistake, really?
I mean, I like proper spelling and all, but that seems a bit harsh. And I say that only slightly because my spelling isn't perfect.

Afghan Wings.
It's Afghan Whigs, but with Paul McCartney on vocals.

Hey, they were on Conan!
I am pretty petty about spelling, too. Especially when someone is talking about their favorite things in an online profile and can't even spell the names right.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That seems like the kind of thing my fingers would just type by accident. But if it matters to you, it matters to you.
