Awesome MUNI.  Furniture is always good.  And YAY you get to call him H now  And congrats on the call backs.  That's awesome.

MUN1 I agree. Amazingly even though we knew we were having a boy most stuff we got was all pretty useful. We got a couple things that we didn't use but not as many as I thought. We knew our boy name even before we were married so it was never really kept a secret.

[QUOTE]Muni, <strong>if I thought I could keep it a secret from the whole world I might think about doing that.</strong> My sister & BIL managed to keep the name a secret until my nephew was born.  Of course, he was born two weeks after they finally decided on a name so I'm sure that helped.

I'm debating about whether or not to drive out to NJ this weekend.  Some friends are getting together and I said a while back that I'd go, but after having driven across half the state last weekend, I'm not sure I want to hit up the other half this weekend, espeecially when I have to go to Philly for work on Wednesday.

How long of a drive is it?

One of my mom's good friend's just became a grandma, and her daughter wasn't sharing the sex of the baby, though the daughter and her husband knew. Most people did get them practical gifts rather than a bunch of cutesy clothes, but the grandma (my mom's friend) insisted the baby was a boy and bought TONS of boy clothes and decorations - blue, sports themed, dinosaur themed, anything that screams baby boy. And of course, they had a girl. That always made me laugh.

That sounds way too long strlz.

Probably about 5 hours one way.

I'm so glad today is over.  I had a major case study due for one of my classes, including the photographs and such, it was 45 pages.  One more class on Monday, then I'm done with my first year of graduate school.  I look foward to my time off before starting summer classes.  Tomorrow I'm going to be out of the house from 8am-late.  Last day of fieldwork, museum trip that was supposed to be done in Feb (no official due dates in this class), dinner at Katz's Deli, then seeing Hysteria.  It's about the guys who invented the vibrator.

Hi guys! Just sitting here with the dog, watching a NCIS marathon. I always wish that I could be Abby. Of course, if I mainlined caffeine like she does, I would be awake, bouncing off the walls for maybe 6 or 7 weeks. And I need no assistance in that area.

And Max ate half of a box of shredded wheat. He was "acting out" because John and I left the house at the same time for lunch (in 2 cars - he was headed to work after) and left him. Lonely dog has the ability to cause widepread destruction when slighted.

There's another girl that's debating about going as well (we're supposed to share a room), so I told her that if we could still get tickets to the show at the club everyone else is going to, then I'd go.  She's supposed to call and see if we can still get them, so I'm just waiting to hear.

Yuck, waaaay too long of a drive, strlz.  ten hours of driving for how long socializing?

Loopyseven

Stlrz - how long are they getting together for?  Would it be a weekend deal, or an afternoon/dinner/evening deal?  If you're really sick of the car, I'd probably skip it.  Especially if you can make arrangements to see the friends another time in the next month or so.

Alright ladies have a good night. I gotta give E a bath and feed him so that he can go to bed. It was really nice chatting with you all again.

strlzfan11

I'd go out Saturday morning and come back late Sunday night.  Part of me really wants to stay home, but the  rest of me wants to say screw it and just go.

Night, C!

Liesel, my bachelorette party was in Chicago, too!  I loved it!  We went on an architectural river cruise, ate some Giordano's, and went to Howl at the Moon.  It was awesome!  I love Chicago!!!!!!

ETA:  that was a hi and good bye.  We're watching the second episode of Once Upon a Time.

I gotta go to bed too.  It's been a long week and I'm still not caught up on sleep!

It was a fun!  Some friends went early and got us a table away from the pianos, so we could talk and have fun.  I hope that you have a great time!
