Josh is home with the baby today. I'm encouraging him to bake bread and do E's laundry. We'll see how that goes.
Carter's brand sleepers are now on my "can't buy" list -- the feet are too small for E, even in the 2T size.
Last night just before bed (and I mean "as I picked him up to carry him upstairs") E demanded - demanded crackers and apples. So, after some fussing, I gave in and fed him milk and bunny crackers and an apple. He ate it all. Every bit. An entire half apple, about forty bunny crackers, and eight ounces of milk. This, on top of him having chicken and green beans and carrots for dinner. I sense a growth spurt in the offing, which is annoying since we only just got him into the 2T size and I have all this spring stuff I bought in 2T. If he's going to be wearing 3T come summer I'm going to have to do some hardcore shopping. Sigh.
For Christmas I bought some tickets to the Opera for my mother, and the performance is tonight. She says she's coming down no matter what the weather is (I called and confirmed they are, in fact, still holding the damn thing), so I guess I'm meeting her for dinner at 5:45 and then we'll be seeing La Traviata at 7:30 pm.
I don't mind going to the opera, really. Opera is fine, although I don't have the same detailed appreciation for it my mother does. But the weather is icky and the timing is bad and all and all I find myself wishing it had been canceled.
I'm sort of weirdly pleased at all the blog time and mainstream press Gygax is getting in death. (Of course, one might wish he had gotten this much recognition in life, but perhaps he got enough.) Here is his NY Times Obit.
I think I might walk over to JL Coombs at lunch and buy some overpriced slippers. I'm very tired of my feet being cold and damp at work.

My computer (Firefox) at work won't keep me logged into websites when I close my browser and its driving me crazy. Our IT guy thought it might have something to do with the spyware protection, but that doesn't seem to be it. I've checked all the obvious settings. I've never had this issue with Firefox before. Any ideas?
