juldeaI had to distract a happy purring matrix off of my arms with dinner before I could type this out. Typing small comments with one hand is easy, but I'm not skilled enough for entire posts. :)
I made my own pizza tonight. A small with TONS of mushrooms, some onion, and some bacon. And I poured garlic sauce all over it when it was done. It was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. Yummm.
I delivered to a garage where some boys were putting together a project for an engineering class. They stood and talked to me for a minute, about my cool beanie hat and how much money I make and such. One of them was inspecting my car and I asked him what was up, and he asked how the car topper stayed on. I told him it was magnets, and they said, "Man, we need magnets for our project, could we have one?"... and I said, "Sure, I don't care!" They were really astonished I had said yes. We pulled the topper off and unscrewed one of the magnets (there are 6 keeping it on, I didn't need all of 'em) and they got to keep it. They offered me pizza and beer in return, but it was early in the night so I declined and went on my merry way. :)
Today was a pretty good day. Saxon was too busy for my liking, but it wasn't horrible. I had yummy thai for lunch. Goldbug and I took Pixel to the vet - instead of using the cat carrier, Pixel rode in goldbug's lap in the car. Since she (Pixel) was still very uncertain about this car business, she made a lot of meowing noise and shed a WHOLE LOT on goldbug's lap. Goldbug told her it was okay, and petted her a lot. The vet gave her a rabies shot and a leukemia shot, and weighed her - she has gained 10 ounces since November! She weighs 6 pounds 14.5 ounces. Almost 7 pounds! What a big kitty! (heehee)
Then we got back in the car, and she was much more relaxed. I guess she knew that now it was time to go home. But it wasn't - I took her to the physics building and into the lab. I figured she would have a exciting trip to tell Matrix about. She met Dr. Shafer-Ray and Dr. Johnson, and saw Brendan. Then she finally got to come home.
I took a nap. I missed aerobics. Blah. I need to get back to paying attention to that.
No mysterious devil markings in pizza delivery tonight....

on 19 Feb 2002 00:04 (UTC)that would make pixel a good approximation of the current weight of my baby. :)

on 19 Feb 2002 14:53 (UTC)as for the baby, it's not actually that bad. it's much nearer my center of balance than pixel was to yours, if she was in your arms. i think most of the problem is the 20-something *other* pounds i've gained... mostly in the breast area.
