  1. This cold is not so much sapping my will to live as it is my will to exist. There's a difference, I think.
  2. So I guess the babbling and squeals coming through the monitor mean she's not taking a long nap this morning.
  3. So I've decided the baby has a cold, and isn't teething. Good news for ta-tas, bad news for that sleep routine we were getting the hang of.
  4. Nuala's had a runny nose for a couple days. Now I have a stuffy nose. Am I teething?
  5. Can I apply for one postdoc and one TT job and call an end to The Market '09? Please? For the love of Pete, somebody just give me a job.
  6. Happy birthday to my sister, who will always be just that little bit older than me. :)
  7. According to my records, 12 days elapsed between runny nose and cutting of first teeth. Does this mean in 11 days there will be more?
  8. Sure, baby was up every hour from 6:30 to 11:30 crying. But she's all snotty so it probably wasn't a plain refusal to sleep. Silver lining!
  9. I am finding it awfully hard to work when there's a crying baby upstairs, even when Spouse is up there to swoop in if need be.
  10. We just let the baby cry herself to sleep for nap #1 of the day. Fact: it's a lot easier when there are 2 of us here, and I'm downstairs.
  11. Guess who likes sweet potatoes? Me! Oh, and Nuala too.
  12. I almost don't want to acknowledge the fact that the baby slept for 5- and 6-hour stretches last night, for fear she'll never do it again.
  13. I'm a big girl, and I can go to bed at 8:13pm if I want to.
  14. I miss running. I have no idea when I'll ever have an extra couple hours 3 days a week again, so I'll just whine about it until then.
  15. We need (ish) two computers. I have my Mac, & Spouse doesn't need anything special (read: cheaper PC wd work). A Mac/PC house a bad idea?
  16. Why is it that when you've been sleep-deprived for a long time and you start sleeping again, you're more tired? Adrenaline stops pumping?
  17. Baby's been sleeping for four hours at a time overnight for the last couple days. I'm pretty sure this is heaven.
  18. 1st time ever, commenter on SBTrib's website is useful. Polling places tomorrow (ref. on South Shore Line funding): http://bit.ly/d3Ekn
  19. RT @dooce: I think I can safely speak for all parents of small children: SCREW YOU, TIME CHANGE.
  20. Remarkably refreshed after 6 hours of broken sleep (acquired in four separate chunks). Still irrationally optimistic about tonight!
