Zach seemed to really like swaddling when he was born and he was far from a preemie. He was always able to wiggle out of mine though at some point.

I haven't looked at baby things in forever, I bet they have some cool stuff! He loved the toys he could manipulate himself to make noise and colors, like the archway they lay under( I'm sure it has a name though) and things like that when he was a little older than Theo. All I remember about newborns is being very tired, all the time. Thankfully it didn't last forever! I love when they start noticing the world around them, it's such a wonderous time!

Gary bought newborn Air Jordans that matched his for when Zach was born

A friend of mine who works at the Studios is referring me for a Graphic Designer position!

Census called- I'm in!

Now I hope I like the job and that I can play this into something long-term and better.

I win I win I win I win I win I win I win!

So I'm a giant geek and subscribe to Nikoli.com, a site with daily logic puzzles.

On top of the usual logic puzzles they run a couple interesting side contests, one of them they call the Nikoli Derby. They dress it up as a a virtual horse race, but the rules are very simple. Everyone who enters chooses a number. Any number they want. Whomever chooses the lowest number that nobody else has chosen wins. So if 2 or more people choose "1", they lose, then if 2 people chose "2", they lose, and you keep going until you reach the first number that only 1 person chose.

This time, that number was "2", and the person was me! I win a t-shirt! Squee, free t-shirt!!

It's always fun to win something, isn't it! I bet it will be an interesting shirt too!

I bitched about how it was handled elsewhere, but, so as not to seem like an ingrate...I got a big ol' bonus today! w00t. I worked my ass off last year on a project, and management finally made it worth our while (in their own fvcked up, tone deaf, utterly out of touch with reality way). And timing couldn't be better as we are trying to figure out how to budget on 1/3 the income.

Plus, I learned that they're building a Sonic burger around the 'sdaods* corner from work. Good day. Excellent day.

* I left that in. I sneezed with my fingers on the keyboard, that was the result. It amused me.
