I’m a sucker for anthropomorphized critters. I’m also pretty keen on the idea of the Internet as a real place, where guys in hats work. So this made me laugh. I wish someone from the Internet would come over to put a caption on Marsha.
LOL. Cats!

Things that are not awesome
1) The swift hiss of air rushing past the giant metal chunk in the mini-van’s tire. Fortunately, I heard it after we got home, as I was getting Pi out of her carseat.
2) Buying the wrong size diapers. Because I’m a doofus.
3) No nap for Poppy = No nap for Mommy. She’s currently re-enacting a 70s kung-fu movie in her crib, from the sound of it.
It's all fun and games
We picked up a fun new game at the toy store yesterday. It’s called Bananagrams, and it’s similar to Scrabble. But there’s no board, and you don’t have to take turns, and the tiles are stored inside a banana.
We’ve been enjoying it, even though it’s a little slow with two players (there are 144 tiles, and the object is to use them all up) and Rockford keeps playing made-up words like “gits” and “ix.” When I challenged him on that one, he said “Ix” is “the planets the Mentats come from.” Sadly for Rockford, it still doesn’t count because proper nouns aren’t allowed.
We played a few rounds after I watched the very last “Gilmore Girls,” which I thought was just lovely.
