Amongst Our Weaponry

1. i looked around for a new wordpress theme, but every single one i tried annoyed me with how it ended up looking, so you are stuck with this one. because it gives all the information i want, all right there, without me having to mess with it.

2. brandus now has a blog. but nothing has been done with it yet, so im reluctant to give out the domain name. will let you know.

3. have done things to the blog roll. *handwavy* added and edited and cleared a few things out that i just dont read anymore.

which means there is now an ever increasing number of mommy and daddy blogs being added. oh dear.

4. im about to head out for a different village tomorrow night, leaving brandus and voldemort alone. for 2 nights. i found myself frantically counting ounces of milk in the freezer, hoping hoping hoping that ive left enough.

yes, there is formula too, if absolutely necessary. I mean, the kiddo wont starve. but he hasnt had formula in months, and im worried he wont take it now.

and..i cant figure out if i should still be pumping every couple of hours while im at my training. there is a freezer available, but..i dont know. and then having to haul it all back with me in my little cooler on a teeny plane. ack.

5. the dark lordling now has a little cousin! The Critter was born August 20th at 12:01am! Voldemort’s Aunt Natalie and Uncle Dave are understandable thrilled.

The boys wont get to meet for quite a while, with us living on one edge of the country, and them living on the other.

6. We’ve been playing with Skype, as part of trying to figure out how to introduce the cousins, and its working pretty well. Plus, its free, which is also way of the cool. we’ve got brandus’ folks all set up, and we’re working on my folks.

7. Dominos has THE most disturbing commercials about dessert food. first, there was Fudgems, and now there is the oreo pizza mustache.

WHY GOD WHY.

Long Time Whatever

Yeah, kinda dropped off the edge of the world. The reasons? Boring. So we shall skip them, and move to the point of today:

BENTO.

I collect lunchboxes – the fun fun ones with cartoon characters and made of METAL.

however, i had to LEAVE all of my beloved lunchboxes in Colorado when we moved up to Alaska – due to space and shipping and everything. which, lately, has been making me very very sad.

So, really, when I stumble over Lunch in a Box, is it really any surprise that I now have two bento boxes (three, counting Thorenson’s) coming my way?

Come on! They’re ADORABLE.

I got them from Sugarcharms, although many more can be found on ebay.

I really really wanted this little guy, but i couldnt justify $20 for a bento that’s basically snack size.

I ended up getting this blue one and this one with the little crabs on it for me, and we got this big one for Brandus.

He decided he wanted in on the fun too!

*bounce*

I am way too excited!

Ack

My father wants me to call EVERY DAY to let them know how the baby is doing.

Oh, but if im too busy, an EMAIL everyday would be fine.

My mother decided we needed to have professional black and white portraits done of the two of us plus Voldemort. She made us an appointment.

Oh, but we’re paying for them.

Yeah. Like any of that is actually going to happen.

*facepalm*

Bon Voyage

I totally did not just cry through the Gilmore Girls series finale.

I blame it on hormones.

Or on Luke Danes, and how he just likes to see Lorelai happy.

*cry*

Im going to miss my show.

The New Dark Lord

Warning: underneath the cut is probably entirely too much TMI, as it involves labor, which involved my vagina to extremes that i dont think it was ready for. Ow.
