Seeing if this'll work...Nope, didn't. I suck at putting in the blog/quizzie things.But apparently I act 24. Only 2 years off from reality. At least I don't act 80 years old.
"That kid has serious thrill issues, dude."That's what a Costco worker said to me yesterday as he watched ds *run* down the aisle and over to the next aisle at full speed. I had to keep from falling on the floor and gig…

I had some spotting today. Scared to death. Right about the same time I started spotting with the miscarriage before ds - around 10-11 weeks. Dh thinks it might be from ds landing on me the other day. I hope so. …
I just found a mistake in Finding Nemo! Yeah, we're on the second or third viewing today. It's the scene where Nemo gets flushed/drained down the dentist spittoon. The water's going clockwise. If I remember right, th…
