Everything you ever wanted to know about kids 2 and under.

If "cry it out" ain't working for you, this is the site to check out. Crying it out is counter-intuitive to attachment parenting.

Teething can do weird things. I could never understand what a tooth coming out has to do with a big rash on the ass. Everytime Jackson teethed, it was always accompanied by a rash on the ass.

Teething means a lot more saliva. It throws off the balance in the GI tract and makes for a nice feeding ground for yeast in the diaper.

You asked.

You have no idea ...

Doncha just love this brain slug baby hat?

The first one is crocheted, not knit ... can't help ya there.

Ravelry--*the* fibre crafts social networking site--has a few Cthulu-based projects on file, like this crocheted balaclava:

The knitting pattern for this one is available for download through Ravelry for a small fee (3 quid):

Personally, I prefer the Dracoclava:

One chug for every time arcane parachutes into a thread, makes noise, then leaves again for weeks or months.

Better make that 10 chugs. And you have to donate them to BradM.

Balvenie is definitely a good value.

Panosphere made from a colourful panorama of a sunset, as a gift to me.

Brad, that cartoon is TOO FUNNY!!!

Not really random or funny, but I thought it was a nice picture of my RJ.

Kid and I were there.

This is what happens when you tank her full of chocolate.

Oooooh, there are ugly ways to take a PDF template you can't edit and appear to add text to it ... one way is to mock it up in Word by doing screen caps of the pages and paste them into Word, then add the text as text boxes in the appropriate places.

Sounds like that free editor isn't much of an editor but a document creator. I create PDFs from Word by using a free print driver (PrimoPDF) that creates the files as if I were printing a hard copy.

Kid and I plan to be there on Sunday. We're hoping Dave will bring his Mini-me

Congrats!!!

Dave was AWESOME!!!

Dave will be back at Swizzles on 6 Dec at 2 pm.

Planning to be there, health permitting. Stupid pig flu.

There's a plan: I'll take my antibiotics on Mondays and Fridays.

Anyone going to see MacHomer on the 7th at the Shenkman Arts Centre?

There is something perversely attractive about the notion of one man doing The Scottish Play with the voices from The Simpsons ...

I hear Pinhey's Point (waaaaaay west in Kanata, pretty much West Carleton) is good.

That.was.AWESOME!! That was like having my head stuck in a beehive full of rhythm!

Brad, thanks for the hospitality Sorry I had to dash ... if I'd missed that bus, the next would have been at least half an hour later, probably an hour. Gotta love STO.

Sounds like a plan ... I'll give you a call
