I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

also, does Noah have belt loops on his pants? could a watch go there?

For med taking I saw on one site them showing an adult wearing a vibrating alarm around their neck on a lanyard, option for the bigger watches?

Which kind? For Noah, his is periodic. So we set 8 alarms to go off, but they were all vibration. But we could have done a periodic countdown from the hours of 7-4 which would have been a vibration at any interval we selected.

For Grace, we originally had her using a potty sensor that would play "It's a Small World" whenever the sensor detected wetness. It went into her pull-up and would let her and us know when she went so she could learn wet. Now she has the same potty timer that sucks and makes noise that we got for Noah tonight.

The Vibralite is probably the one we will end up getting, but maybe the cassio will actually last longer and be harder to change the modes of which is an issue.

Noah has few beltloops and a lanyard would be bad. I think we may just have to have a GIANT watch face with a kid watch band?

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

I'm trying to work out how you solve that with your iPhone. Except then it would be an iPhone in the hands of someone not potty trained yet. But maybe it could have a peripheral.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh Kat, what a PITA. I remember Franny had a hard time with that too. She was fine with the potty during the days EXCEPT when she was in the car. She'd relax and then BOOM. And bed wetting at night. We kept her in pull ups for a long time and also walked her to the bath room in the middle of the night. The one thing I'll say is, it DOES end eventually. It's a pain, that's for sure, but it ends.

7 incredibly loyal dogs

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm currently watching Life on Earth. It's fascinating in and of itself, of course; but also because it's now over thirty years old, and it's interesting to see where our understanding has advanced since then. Most are relatively minor (for instance, they still have Hallucigenia, a fossil from the Burgess Shale, upside down, and the Indonesian coelocanth population was still unknown); but now we're in the episode on reptiles, and his discussion of the extinction of the dinosaurs simply rejects the possibility of a catastrophic event in favour of gradual climate change.

It was about a year or two after the series was produced that Professor Alvarez put forward his evidence of a massive asteroid impact right at the K-T boundary, and longer before the Chicxulub crater at the Yucatan peninsula was fingered as the point of impact. It's very interesting, taking a trip back to the scientific arguments before those discoveries.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I don't want to be an adult today.

Do I have to?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

What wonderful doggies! That made me cry, but the loyalty of dogs is a known crypoint for me. I cry just thinking about Jurassic Bark, for example.

Perkins, I vote no. I think you should go outside and play hopscotch!
