So, on twitter, someone I follow retweeted some of his followers' comments about how "the earth isn't moving" and that anyone who believes the earth moves is getting lied to.

Typo,

OMG, that is super cray cray. The page with the "different Georges" is going to keep me up at night.

Bastard burglars! They took my BIL's very best saxophone, which he bought with the money his mother left him. Assholes.

And his wedding ring.

To be fair, he's more upset about the sax.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

OMG, this is my favorite thing in EVER!

Do they touch on Paul Is Dead? They had damn well better not leave out Paul Is Dead.

I can't tell if that's parody or real. Like so many places on the Internet.

I suppose you could say the earth isn't moving if you are in the proper frame of reference, but I doubt that's the point they are trying to make.

I'm sorry, Consuela.

So I just reached out to my alma mater's head of IT. Because I was her nanny back before she was that, and she's good people. I want to hook Taylor up with her if she goes there. Cause then she'll have a local surrogate mom.

I'm waiting for the Ken Lay is on and Island With Stacked Blondes site.

I mean, c'mon... even if you don't think that one was a conspiracy would ANYONE on EARTH be surprised if they found out it was?

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Oh my god.

I think I have more, but I'm in a state of wonder. Not the good Ann Patchett kind, but the completely bemused sort.

My cough has diminished, but not enough to let me sleep through the night. As a result, I keep doing stupid things -- today's stupidity? I left my wallet on my desk at work. So I picked Noah up, drove back to get my stupid wallet and then back home. Sigh.

Grace has initiated eating actual food for the past two days. She signs eat and then opens here mouth to indicated she wants to eat by mouth not by tube. Granted, in each instance, she eats exactly one cheese puff, which is the only non-pureed food she can manage. It's a start right?

Kat, that's so cool that Grace is eating by mouth! Does it feel like a big step?

We are all sick in this house. Well, M is recovering, but I am feeling pretty lousy, and Rose has had a cough/runny nose for... god, like six weeks? It waxes and wanes, but she hasn't had an entirely cough-free day in about that long. M took her to the doctor today just to rule out anything more serious, but, nope: just a cold. Poor kiddo.
