sanpaku_backupA brief note to all of you -- by you I mean the folks on my friendslist --
I know you all think that your lives are tedious. I know that because you say so all the time. But I have to tell you: I eagerly read every single entry you write, and a whole lot of the back entries too. You all make your lives sound so damn interesting. I know that is probably not how you see it, but you guys have a knack for making it sound like you are experiencing profound and important personal growth every day. I want very badly to go on a trip to see each one of you and meet the people you write about and the places you go. I want to walk the streets of Washington DC at midnight or visit apartments in Seattle. You folks make me want to do these things.
I'm just saying, I appreciate this medium. I'm completely addicted to it.
Just so ya know.
Anyway, the babbling is because the past 48 hours have been hellish. The baby is spending every second that she isn't swaddled trying to scratch her face and head, and screaming when we stop her. Nerves are fraying. Tempers are flaring. This is some hard core shit. You all should stop right now and write a thank-you note to your parents for putting up with you when you were this age.
I am going to a conference tomorrow. I don't enjoy traveling or conferences very much, but I have to admit that I am fantasizing about getting a full night's sleep. It's been so long I can hardly remember what it was like.

I'll be seeing my parents in just a few hours, and can thank them in person. Apparently I was pretty decent at that age; it was only when I developed language skills that I became *really* annoying.
