December 2003

 1  Or maybe it would be more accurate to say that it was like childbirth - the bad parts are already fading from my memory.
 2  The handy thing about telecommuting is that I can run errands during the day, as long as I'm not away from my e-mail for too long.
 3  The good news: Penny slept through the night again last night!
 4  Is this going to be a great day, or what?
 8  Saturday, I had my spa trip that Mom and Dad had given me for my birthday.
 9  No wonder she was pissed.
 10  I have some pretty cool things to talk about today.
 11  She is a Baby Of Action! An Explorer! She needs to Go Places! And See Things!
 15  I don't know whether today's going to be another Ugly day or not.
 17  She was unmistakeably dead, thank goodness...
 18  For every moment of screaming frustration, there's a moment of perfection.
 19  But I've got bigger, more important, scarier things on my mind.
 22  Penny helped out, too, in her own small way.
 23  I went back to bed and my brain started tossing and turning.
 30  In less-whiny baby talk, she's actually making some progress at Doing Stuff, which is nice to see.
 31  Enough whining! Christmas pictures!
