All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Even if I can't spell your name.

Heh. I was trying to figure out how to pronounce that. I think it sounds like some kind of hearing malady.

When are you back?

2 weeks.

msbelle, it's okay. Everybody skims.

I have not heard from tommyrot in a while.

I have to say I'm kind of psyched for the Stephanie Plum movie. Heigl isn't who'd I've have expected but from the trailers she seems pretty good.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Argh, aurelia. I missed it too. I'm sorry.

Though I saw Goose Island beer at the liquor store the other day, and thought of all of you. I miss Chicago.

MFN, did you see that I just said I'm coming to DC?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Man, that new Heigl movie couldn't be less me.

You are? Woot! When?

(God, I am horrible at reading the board lately. I am obviously lacking comprehension skills at the moment.)

edit: Just slogged through the backlog in F2F. The 23rd should work for me, if it's still open for you.

Cash, I love that Reece breaths on his own. GO BABY!

ita, they had to put a PICC line in for my nephew today. YIKES! Sinking a central line into a 1 lb 14 oz body. I can only shudder. It went ok, though. He's going to get medicated for a slight heart murmur. They said regular IVs wear out on those teeny veins too quickly.

I'm actually even more impressed that in a NICU they do it bedside and, at our NICU, it's a nurse who does it! Grace and Noah still have their PICC line scars, on their wrists, because their limbs were so tiny.

But yes, PICC so much better than IVs.

Today's been a day...Noah got a potty watch with several alarms that vibrate to remind him to go pee. This meant that today was accident free!

Grace was mostly accident free until I took her to OT and the 1 hour drive messed us up. Boo. But she ate a puff at OT which is exciting. This OT is a good one.

Like two posts above, Maria. ;-)

I wouldn't usually do emoticons here, but I didn't want to seem snarky.

Also: GO BABY!

Ha. I am an idiot. Who should probably just go to bed. I still have 3 annexes to translate into Spanish by Friday morning. I may have no brain at the end of it.

(I'm really embarrassed right now. I can't even explain...ugh.)

Go puff-eating Grace!

OMG, you all are getting active on another board aren't you? it will just be me in like a week!! WAHHHHH.

Sniff. And I haven't been invited!! Sad.
