Kristin, my sister-in-law had never heard of Alias before, so she started watching it with Jessica and Kelsey, her sister (my other sister-in-law from that part of the family). However, the more alias she watched the sicker she got. Therefore, without any other refutation I blame Alias for Kristin’s downfall in health.

Chuck E. Cheese is Scary
We went to Chuck E. Cheese’s today to play games with the girls. It seemed like a kid friendly place, and over all it was a good experience. However, at the end of the time Abby saw a person dressed as said rodent. She clung to Kelsey tightly and turned away from the rat.
In the car on the way home she said, “He’s scary.” I agree 🙂
George Bush Wants to Kill Me
On the ‘W’ ketchup FAQ page you’ll see the ingredients of the Ketchup, which includes High Fructose Corn Syrup followed by just plain Corn Syrup. If I eat that my hand will fall off in an allergic reaction [I’m highly allergic to corn].
At least Kerry’s wife’s company (Heinz) sells an organic ketchup. Of course it’s outrageously expensive, too. I’ve got to help fund their Humvee. I wish Kerry had an environmental policy that didn’t include owning one of those, a suburban and a personal jet.
Oh, Poop
Abby went potty this morning in her diapers (she sleeps in diapers still) and was really fussy when we changed them. She belly-wallered and flailed (making the poop seem ever more frightening) a lot and we explained to her that if she tells mommy and daddy when she needs to go potty on the big girl potty she won’t have to go through that again.
I’m hoping this will be the straw that helps break the camel of its smoking habit.
Expensive Play-Dough
Abby wanted to play with play-dough this morning and so she asked me if she could. I was working so I asked her to ask her mom. She asked and Jessica said she could if she would give her a kiss. Then I made her give me a kiss, too. Abby gladly accepted the cost and then ran over to the fridge, her cute little legs bouncing with joy, exclaiming, “Cost a kiss.” I hope she’s willing to pay that price for a lot of things for a long time. She’s a precious little girl.
Great Googly-Moogly
We had a great walk with Brian and Jillia this evening. The rabbits were all over! In the end we saw over 12 rabbits in a 1 minute period. Good fellowship and a little exercise is good.
Abby Update
Abby has relaxed a bit today, since yesterday’s crazy attitude and a night of less sleep she’s taking a nice long nap right now and she’s been more obedient. She is still calling Kelsey and Kristin Aunt Shari off and on, but it’s progress 🙂
Bug Problems Solved
No, not programming bugs, but roaches. For all of my friends in Texas, here you go:
I’ve Been Hit
Two meanings to the title:
Sleep-less Night
Last night Abby was awake somewhere between 2:00 AM and 4:00 AM. I got a lot less sleep than I expected.
Web Site Hits
Between the release of StatTraq and the ‘Women of Home Depot‘ I’ve gotten over 550 hits and it not even 7:30 AM. Back 6-7 months ago I was excited to get 90 hits in one day (mostly family then, oh and ‘Women of Walmart’ surfers).
Pray that Abby sleeps better tonight because I’ve had three nights in a row of low sleep and it’s really starting to take a toll.
Make Your Own ‘Worship’ Song
The Make-shift “worship” lyric generator cracks me up. This is how I feel about many of the ‘songs’ that are sung today.
