PiBaby is a year old?! Wow. That was fast! Enjoy the second year, kiddo!
Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Steven Pinker says that babies essentially teach themselves to think (with some help by parents who talk a lot to and around the baby) and "it's the most amazing intellectual feat that a human ever does in its lifetime."
Hippo birdies, Amitai!
Unrelatedly, I ran across a FoaF on Facebook named Lee Perkins, and had to double-check who that was, just in case.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It's true! Babies are awesome.
And PiBaby is a year old! We'll have to start calling him PiToddler now.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Heh. So a PiToddle is when PiToddler takes 3.14 steps....

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Happy birthday, sweet PiBoy!
And I keep being grateful that we were so lucky in that biggest-luck-of-the-draw ever
I don't know about this. Seems to me that what family you get born into, who it is that you'll be spending those crucial and amazing first few years with, may be an even bigger luck-of-the-draw. In which case, he drew a magnificent royal flush.

I had to skip a whole bunch of posts because of time, but I saw the link on 25 people who think Obama killed Breitbart. I loved the one with "They use cancer to kill a lot of people." That's some quality crazy there.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Happy Birthday PiBaby! I can't believe he is already 1!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
That's awesome because if Obama killed Breitbart with cancer, he's on the same page with Hugo Chavez.
I sound white on the phone and my business name doesn't include any of my Japanese ones, so when I traveled to disctrict offices, coworkers were often startled. I worked for a Japanese company at the time, but I wasn't one of their workers, so I got some pretty varied responses.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
ita, you did not sound exactlyhow I thought you would. I think it was the hard "t" for every "t" that surprised me. I am a very lazy pronouncer.
Jilli, your voice was deeper than I had in my mind, but height was accurate.
People rarely tell me what they were expecting me to sound like or look like, but my weight and age are consistently under guessed.
