Mr. Spiderman replaced our old dial thermostat with a programmable one last night. For some weird reason, our heater started making a weird noise after that and this morning our house smelled like burning. I doubt the two are directly related, but it's weird that the furnace (which is only 1-2 years old) would start acting like that all of a sudden.
The polka song from Groundhog Day has been stuck in my head all morning.
I can't believe there's a $19k purse on RueLaLa and it's sold out already. Along with all the $5k-$12k purses that are sold out too.
I just remembered that Mr. Spiderman picked up my phone last night and sent Moo a text that had to be really weird to receive but was making me laugh so hard I couldn't stop him.

Re: Randoms
Seriously, about those bags, if I were going to drop $10k on a Hermes(which I wouldn't), I'm pretty sure I wouldn't get it off an internet discount site. I wonder if they have more than 1 of each.
My random - I never realized that BobLoblaw = blah blah blah. I guess I never "said" it aloud in my head? Or, if I did I said Bob Lob Law. Idiot!
Uh...I totally realized this. Yeah, your comment definitely isn't what turned my light bulb on. Nosirreebob.
BUT IT'S A BIRKIN!!!!!
How the hell are there Birkins left over for Rue La La? I thought there were waiting lists for those things. You can also buy a $1300 wallet to go inside.
I like the crocodile Kelly bag a lot. Enough to pay approximately 1% or less of their asking price.
We have a programmable thermostat too. Last year our heat wouldn't turn on during the freak freeze weekend. I called a repairman out and he changed the battery for only $60 (I supplied the battery). Apparently as the battery dies, the first thing to go is switching on the heat and air, not the display, which was still working normally.
The nerve!

I could really use a nap
I've developed an aversion to raw meat, but want meatloaf, mashed potatoes, broccoli and gravy for dinner. Problem.
I'm down to two episodes left of Mad Men Season 3. I feel like an addict rationing our my rock but wanting to smoke it all at once. When will Season 4 come out on DVD?
I just hit my forehead with my palm. D'oh! I'm right with you.
I bet her FUPA's name is Shane, like the gunslinger/drifter of literature.--HappyTummy
Haven't you people watched Arrested Development?!
Yesterday while Will was trying to fall asleep at his nap time, I overheard him talking. He was making up a conversation between Mr. Lion (his lovey thing) and the Day Out with Thomas train he got last week (that he's been sleeping with).
"Thomas, your face looks like a turtle."
"No it doesn't Mr. Lion, that's not very nice."
"Yes Thomas, in fact your face looks like a turtle."
"Mr. Lion! You stop not being very nice to me!"
He started saying "in fact" a couple days ago out of nowhere. While reading "Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late," when the pigeon asked for a glass of water, instead of saying "no!" (like you're supposed to to all the pigeon's requests), Will said, "In fact Daddy, I would also like a glass of water, just like the pigeon."
Where does he come up with this stuff?
Add me to the group that didn't get blah, blah, blah....

I'm a smart one, too.

I've never watched Arrested Development.
And I had kind of made up a Bob Loblaw character in my head to go with the screenname. I totally had Bob Loblaw pegged as an attorney with his own practice, specializing in wills and trusts.
I hear everything Bob says in Scott Baio's voice. It makes all her comments even more entertaining.
Before reading your clarification, I was totally thinking "Noisy has to make up these conversations. I can't believe any kid is that damn adorable. What two year old says "in fact"?" and then you conquered my doubts. I really want to steal your kid.
My guess is he picked it up from some random TV show or something. He likes the space ship on Star Trek: The Next Generation so we put it on sometimes. I can see Captain Picard saying "in fact" and will picking it up from there. Will loves Captain Picard, but he calls him "Captain Log." Because the beginning of most of the episodes begin with "Captain's log, star date blah blah blah." "Oh! It's the Captain Log show!"
Will is adorable. That is the cutest thing ever.
I'm crossing all of you who didn't get Bob Loblaw and his Law Blog off my Christimas card list. Friendship over!
Noisy, seriously, your kid needs his own reality show. He cracks me up!

We are going to "Yucky Cheese" (M's pronunciation) tonight for a school fundraiser. He is over-the-moon excited because it's all the kids have been talking about, even though he has no idea what it is.
I do though. I helped a friend host her son's birthday party a few years ago. It was on a weekend morning, I was very hungover, and it was loud and dirty, had bad food, and Chucky repeatedly groped my friend's sister.
I told M last night that Chucky is a big rat, who will come to their school to say hello, and later we would go to his house for dinner. He wasn't all that thrilled with the explanation until we told him Chucky had many games he could play and pizza for dinner.

One more Will story. Will is sick, and last night he was running a fever and was really lethargic, so we let him sit on the couch and watch TV and drink juice. It seems the Sprout channel's evening programming is called "the Good Night Show", and it has this weird stuffed star puppet.
When I turned it on, Will kept talking about "that old piece of cheese." He thought the star was an old piece of cheese puppet. Then after awhile, when the lady kept addressing it as "Star," Will turned to me and said, "Mommy you were wrong, it's a star, not an old piece of cheese." I didn't tell him it was cheese!
Noisy, does Will spend a lot of time around older children or groups of adults? Our friends have a 5 year old that is always around her four, much-older siblings, and she carries on conversations almost like adults. It's adorable young-kid logic phrased in adult-conversation style. Sounds a lot like these stories about Will.

I wish Tasty would come back already. I miss that ho.
And I want to see Angie's baby! Waiting is stupid!

He spends most of his time with us (Lorne and I tag team with the childcare), and the second cousin he likes playing with sometimes is five, so that makes sense. He has a friend he plays with fairly often that's about six months younger than him, but he's not quite as verbal so they usually communicate by screaming and laughing, which is amusing in a totally different way.

It's a good thing my circle of trust is as giant as my vagina. That only leaves a couple people out. - Cali
That old piece of cheese story is hysterical. I hate that star, because Caillou is on during the goodnight show so I associate the two. Maggie calls that channel "Sprout dot com."
WE JUST FOUND OUT MIKE'S OFFICE HAS BEDBUGS!!! They closed the office and thank goodness he's gone this week for a training. I'm itchy.
Guys, please. Can we not talk about Caillou? I effing hate him.
I HATE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think we should make Noisy take videos of Will and post them every week. It will be a real life Baby News segment. I need to see him in action.
Guys, I just "took" my rings off because overnight I've swollen to 5 times the size of myself. It took me 30 minutes with real tears and Windex to get them off. Windex really is magic in a bottle.
I didn't google BobLobLaw like a year ago and not figure anything out and just roll my eyes and shake my head. No I did not.
Noisy, bring Will to me. In fact, bring him to me now. Also you're doomed. He's too smart.

not to ba an alarmist, but isn't that a sign of pre-eclampsia? The sudden swelling?
