I won't know my company standings until Tuesday. The bad news is I have discovered (always suspected) that people are cheating. Until Tuesday I'll wait to cry foul. This week was tough. One of the days I stepped over 64,000. I only slept 2 1/2 hours and was on my feet for 20 hours.

You do alot better than we do. The most walking we'll do is while at Dragoncon. When my friend Bill used to do guest transportation (the guys who pick guests up at the airport), he logged about 40 miles the weekend.

OK, time to switch subjects for now. Kylee is so funny and she is a so sweet. She is now beginning to understand the concept that mommy has a baby in her belly. Mainly because we keep telling her she has to be careful and not run at mommy's tummy or kick me when I am changing her diaper etc. because she'll hurt the baby. And I always rub my tummy when I tell her and point and say there is a baby in there. The other day we were at Bob Evans eating dinner and and she was sitting in her high chair in between me and dshai and my father in law, nephew, and sister in law were sitting across from us. She gets this really sweet and innocent smile on her face and in the middle of dinner she reaches over and pats me on the boob. I kind of laugh and go "Muffin, what are you doing?" She smiles again sweetly and pats my boob and says "Baaaaaby".

*Much laughter around the table.*

And I said "You're so sweet muffin, but the baby is down here." *I rub my belly*

That was funny. Amazing what small fry say.... especially when they have the attention of every adult there...

Already had two honking huge cups this morning. I think I am set for the moment.

I see the 'shroom found himself a new 'shroom.

I am really looking forward to when my nephew is capable of talking intelligently.

Cherry brandy! Have an acquaintance who makes his own wine and he made some cherry brandy.

Wow. The stuff was ... POTENT.

I have no ability to hold liquor anyway, let alone high powered stuff.

I got rather trashed when a friend and I were doing Lemon Drops. THAT was potent stuff.

Unlike the hotel-catered Pirate party at the last con I was at where you couldn't tell there was any booze in the punch (which tasted like Kool-Aid with an unknown flavor). They had to add more booze to it. Before that, it was awful. One guy, who drinks quite a bit, was "threatening" to pee in it to give it more booze...

What, exactly, is everclear?

Clear booze.

One of the ingredients of Romulan Ale.

Yeah, I fold cranes from 1.25" squares of opalescent white paper. They come out very nicely, then I thread pinstock up through the body, affix to earring hooks and voila.

Do you fold?

Nope. Never could.
