Okla. Baby Born At 12:34:56 On 7/8/09Baby Also Shares Same Birthday As Grandmotherhttp://www.koco.com/cnn-news/19998844/detail.html
STILLWATER, Okla.--A quirk of the clock and the calendar has given a Stillwater family an unforgettable memory.When the time lined up on Wednesday afternoon at 12:34:56 on 07/08/09, it was more than just a twice-a-century alignment. They also had a unique reason to celebrate."It just so happened that when they took me back, when he got here, it was 12:34:56," said Lydia Uhrig. Her son's birth certificate says his birth happened at 12:34:56 at 07/08/09.Uhrig said she planned to have little Denis by Caesarean section on Wednesday anyway, but the special birth time was a bonus."I thought that it was very unique," she said. "It was just something that I never thought would happen in a million years."She said her son's birth was extra-special for his grandma, who shares a birthday with her grandson. |

Torchwood proving to be more enjoyable than Dollhouse. Yesterday's scenes had me on the edge of my seat. I always said the show's first two seasons suffered immensely from the lack of a proper overall plot arc. And the best thing about last night was

I went to the store for a new bike seat. The cute boy working there gave me a $35 seat for $15, because he said I had "a pretty face". I like specialty bike shops. I rate this place almost as good as the place who got Becky a new wheel for her chair. :D

Roy Jongebloed: Thirty years ago I was on the inside of the fence as nuclear protestors were outside the fence, holding their babies, saying close down the plant, the radiation was going to kill my baby. I said to myself (for real, actually thought it); the more nuclear plants that are closed down, the more we will need foreign oil, and those same babies will be dying in a war in the middle east. And what happened?
Kerry L Knauf: Sure hit the nail right on the head....will people never learn? Wait until people have no houses to live in and the feds control any electricity you use? What then? What's next "Soylent Green"?
Janet Jongebloed: Yeah, but only because we haven't put enough money into other forms of renewable energy. The old model does not work, it leads to BOTH nuclear power plants AND wars. It does not have to be one or the other.
Kerry L Knauf: Where will the money come from????
Janet Jongebloed: Where would the money come from? I find this statement really sad.. if the government can find money to send our young men and women to war, why can't they find money to finance science achievements? You know, things that create and build up instead of destructive things that tear down? I think it's more priorities and what looks good on the news. Explosions are exciting, science is not.. at least to the common public.
Roy Jongebloed: Janet, try not being so rude. It is ok to be rude to me, I understand your immaturity, but do not be rude to my friends. When you grow up and get a job, instead of living off your father's love for you, then maybe you will have a different perspective and attitude. Meanwhile you are welcome to share your views and have an intelligent conversation, but grown ups do this in a pleasant manner, rudeness has no place in my world.
Janet Jongebloed: What was rude about my comment? Maybe you just don't like my point of view. I find a hell of a lot more rudeness in the way you dismissed my point of view than anything I said. Wow.. what a dick. Yeah, see, THAT was rudeness, if you wanted to know the difference.
I honestly don't get it. Fucking moron. This is why I don't talk to my uncle.

I don't know why, but for some reason, I'm not into all the MJ coverage...It's sorta meh to me. It's a sad story, I know, but it's a little over the top.

Torchwood is really good. What happened? John Barrowman finally has some decent lines.

Joyce: Things are coming, Dawn. Listen, things are on their way. I love you, and I love Buffy, but she won’t be there for you.
Dawn: What? Why are you…?
Joyce: When it’s bad, Buffy won’t choose you. She’ll be against you.
I feel like this. Have felt like it for a while now. Too complicated to explain why.

Baby slipped out of mum's arms last night and fell face front onto the floor. Went to hospital in state of high anxiety. After a wee wait and one x-ray and a CAT scan the doctor said "Good news he doesn't have fractured ribs, bad news he has a fractured skull". Wanted to throw up on the spot but managed to hold it together. Fortunately it's a very minor fracture and he's behaving normally i.e. pooing, demanding to be fed and being cranky and yelly. Pretty much a shipper really. Anyhow he's was in overnight last night and is staying overnight tonight. And is going to have a full x-ray tomorrow. And hopefully then will be back home.
The whole thing was as scary as anything, I swear to God.

Ugh. I did not get to play Ciara tonight. I totally was not in right head space/mood to roleplay. All I wanted was to relax and play with Ian after this crazy messed up week. *pout*

"I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end
If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be
There holding my hand"
-Kryptonite, Three Doors Down
I figured some stuff out today.
I know where I stand on things and feel strong and okay with my viewpoints.
I can look in the mirror and have no regrets.

I didn't believe Boglin when he and Greg were talking about 3D printers. But now, after seeing it on YouTube and all the things you can make with one.. my mouth is just hanging open and I still don't quite understand it. It's um.. wow. Weird. It can materialize anything you can think of.. which may possibly crash the whole economic system someday.

I've woken up many times lately, with Shilo cuddled up either on top of my chest or next to me, usually purring or just dozing herself. It reminds me so much of Sebastian.
..and then she realizes I'm awake and bites me on the lip until I get up and play with her. That part is new. She likes to nibble human flesh, which was never really big on Sebastian's lists of things to do.
Also, whenever I leave my laptop lying around she opens a whole bunch of different windows, and I come back and there's all sorts of programs running. The other day, she even turned the whole computer on. I'm wondering if she's part of some top secret mailing list for kittens that want to take over the world. Either that, or she's just a ICANHASCHEEZBURGER fan.

Buffy being rejected by Spike and Angel is a deliberate nod to the Bush era where America was ignored and made fun of by Europe and Asia. Quite why no one else in the fandom can see is because they are fucking idiots and I know best. Now if you excuse I must go and write chapter 15 of "Spike and Wesley in chains".

I'm going to join a gym. This happy weight I have gained is not making me feel very happy. There are a few I'm going to check out near the apartment. I had been doing Wii workouts, but the Wii fit isn't intense enough, and the EA Sports Active is so lunge and squat heavy that my knees have been taking a serious beating and I'm in pain a lot of the time after I workout.
I don't want to just jump into a gym simply because it's the closest one. I'd love to have a lap pool and some nice recumbent bikes. I'm going to shop around and will hopefully find one that suits me in the next week or so. Then I'm going to have to get my play lists together on my Inno, so I have workout music. And maybe a few audio books to listen to while working out (not while swimming, obviously). My aim is to get up to 1 hour a day at least 4 days a week.
Wish me luck!

Today is Canada day. Let's hear it for the Mounties, the crazy boys who ask me to dance in Vegas, and the people who rob your car while it's parked in one of the last spots in the first tourist rest area over the boarder and take your Ghandi books and camera and birth certificates.
Okay, um.. that last one can go to hell.
EDIT: *headdesk* I has bad spellling. Oi. I should fix that, but I'm too busy trying to figure out how to bomb Canada. Er.. I mean.. send very many gifts to our wonderful neighbors of the north. Yep. That's what I meant. A-huh.
