Yes, but Orc was unemployed last time. . .and I was commuting.

Is she doing the cute tippy-toe walk?

Heh, I did the same as you, I'm not cross-eyed, but I don't have perfect vision either. Oldest only crawled for about a week.

She is walking more of a waddle step, not on her toes.

daj59 wrote:Son finally walked at 10.5 months. We got a good amount of crawling out of him and wow, was he fast!

yeah, this one has a very fast crawl. She has to if she wants to keep up with her sister.

Why?
We had a three year old living on the block who would turn on the hose and hose people down as they walked home from the subway!

Man we really missed out growing up in suburbia where all the grown-ups worked.

tell me about it, I'm up to a boss fight too. Baby woke up and she's been falling asleep on my lap in the office.

This computer and games makes it hard.

Well, the ratties calmed down and so did the product thread, so sorry KtC, you are on your own...will at least once The Honeymooners...it is the one where they did the commerical for the Chief of the Future.

That's okay. Baby is back in her bed. Off to beat the boss (I hope). Goodnight dname!

Good morning (afternoon). I wonder if they pried his gun from his cold dead fingers?

Good morning.

Just read back a bit... Poof if you haven't done your file labels yet, consider getting a cheapy label printer thingie. I used this to print out labels for my hanging folders when we got the new desk - and you can print one or a gazillion (or until the paper runs out) and label whatever, wherever.

Here's a link to one at Staples...

Good morning everybody! Goes to catch up!

I'm debating getting today's woot for our Disney trip. My digital camera is, I think it's called an SLR type, and it's big and bulky. I'd like a smaller one but don't know if I should be forking over another $100 right now... Ugh, what to do, what to do?

Mornin', again to all the late-risers and those further left of the right coast!

I accidently left my insulated cup at the sink on Friday. The cleaning lady nicely put it in the dishwasher for me. It's oblong now instead of round. Sigh.

Happy Monday.

And that's why I don't have a reinemachefrau!!

Realtor Danilo Bogdanovic says he is increasingly seeing more foreclosures on properties worth more than $800,000 as affluent borrowers burn through savings in a vain attempt to stay in houses they can't afford.

At the end of 2007, 20 of the 25 houses for sale for more than $850,000 in Loudoun County, VA, appeared to be foreclosures.

I'd be interested to see how they are defined as affluent and if their income conditions have altered since they bought the homes.

No, this is just the forst article I read that sort of said that "rich people" got "tricked" into these loans that are "surprise!" snapping them in the butt.

I especially am impressed by the part where these poor folks "burn through savings in a vain attempt."

What a mess.

When I was a kid, most adults said to save up your money and only buy things you could afford. Now it seems to have shifted to "buy things you think you deserve," and the media is shocked that most of us can't afford to pay for all these things.

Sorry. Too sensitive hot button of an issue.

And why should the public have to foot the bill for others' greed/stupidity?

okay. There's at least two of us who agree on that.
