Wow. Last night was the worst of all. My child is stubbornly rigid about his routines and last night was no different. Kile put him to bed, since I was out at the grocery store with my mother in law. As such, he forgot to give our mad teether a dose of motrin before putting him down. I can hear all you moms out there groaning along with me. This child doesn’t do teeth one or two at a time. Ho no. No, he’s putting through SIX right now. And four of those are molars. So putting a child like that to bed without motrin should be a punishable offense, right? At least, the offending party should be made to get up with said child when he inevitably wakes up in the middle of the night, miserable. Right? Wrong, apparently. Liam woke, cried and then dozed off again continually for several hours after we went to bed until just before 2 am he decided that he wasn’t going to doze back off again. So I got up with him. I had to wait for the motrin to kick in before going back to bed so I was up for a while. I got to see at least one full episode of “Angel” on TNT though, if that tells you anything. He cried off and on for the rest of the night as well, but slept better.
Meanwhile, I’m still struggling with the suddenly unbearably uncomfortable bed and getting restful sleep on it is getting to be pretty laughable. It seems no matter where or how I lay, there’s always something sharp or angled poking into me, be it my own arm or the bed itself. I’ve said before that this mattress sucks, but it’s never sucked this bad. I don’t know how I’m going to make it through the rest of this pregnancy, I really don’t.
Some yahoo took a wrong turn onto our cul de sac this morning, right after Kile’s alarm went off (so it was probably about 6:30, I’m guessing). I’m guessing he through the street actually connected to something at the other end because he tore up and then seemed surprised when the road, you know, ENDED. He laid on the breaks, spun the wheel, squealed the tires and ended up plowing through the rocks in our neighbor across the street’s landscaping. Niiiice. Tell me that didn’t just about give me a freaking heart attack. We totally need one of those “Not a Through Street” signs, I don’t know why we don’t have one.
So “Halo 3″ comes out today. I’m pretty depressed about this. We lack both the game (duh) and an Xbox360 (pretty important if you want to play it, of course). Meanwhile, I’m dying to know how the story ends. It’s almost like with “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” (but not quite). I’m so tempted to look up spoilers online (I know there are some out there) but have resisted so far. Mostly. Okay, I did read that review that the San Jose Mercury News did, but it didn’t really reveal anything. I don’t know when I’ll get to play it, but I’m hoping I won’t have to wait too long. Considering the price of an Xbox360, I’m not going to hold my breath.
Hey, I upgraded WordPress last night. Can’t tell, can you? That’s okay. I can hardly tell myself. There’s some nifty new features, such as integrated tagging. But I’m so lazy, I don’t know if I can keep up tagging. I’m giving it a shot for this post, at least. It also has some more advanced visual editor quicklinks, which I’ve been waiting and waiting and waiting for. Also kinda dig the update notifications on the plugins, since I am currently running about a billion of them and it can be hard to keep track of them all. Other than that? Nothing too groundbreaking. When are they going to release a WordPress that will just type my posts for me? That would rock.
I don’t know if I’m going to get a nap this morning or not. Liam is once again in the closet, snoozing away (or so I believe since all is quiet on the baby monitor). But I’m afraid to go up there for fear of waking him. Seriously, last night traumatized me. Even so, I’m about dead on my feet here and if I don’t get a nap I’m afraid of what will happen. Someone might just get eaten.
Thoughts Aside
The importance of domain names matters to no one else more than a webmaster. He is the one who knows the worth of broadband to the site and the value that will come with web design.
