Courtney, you tell Jon we are not man-haters, we are realists, so THERE.

Kelly, I am absolutely fascinated with your little cliffhanger there...When will you divulge your dramatic past to us? In chapters, perhaps, like Stephen King's failed Internet book?

Barb, how funny, I say 'too cool for school' all the time IRL. You're cracking me up lately, btw!

3-yr-olds, Oh my. Barb, that Rachael Ray story reminded me of a couple Thanksgivings ago when my youngest cousin was being potty-trained...He stood up at the dinner table, raised both arms like he was about to recite Shakespeare, and announced, drumroll please..."I have to poop!" Omg, the entire table about choked on their drumsticks laughing. Kids do indeed say the darndest things. And their sense of timing. Priceless.

Well, ladies, Operation Get The Hell Out Of Here was a smashing success, as I've related to you in emails, so I'll just give a rundown for our viewers at home: I handed in my 2-week notice at the current stagnant pond I'm in and will start Monday the 9th working for lawyers, whom at least I know are lying to me. Patent law, so if anyone out there thinks up any brilliant inventions in the near future, I'm your girl.

We are doing well, nothing else new to report except Julian fell this morning pulling himself up on a door jamb...So his left cheek looks like I busted him a good one and I'm sure daycare is on the phone with Children's Services right now. Lovely crap.

8 days, 4 hours, 20 minutes...
