This makes me sick. And what REALLY annoys me is that these articles make Dr. Tiller sound like he was killing perfectly healthy babies. He wasn’t. He specialized in terminations “after the fetus has been diagnosed with a birth defect: a deformed heart, missing kidneys, Down’s syndrome, anencephaly.” I can’t imagine what it’s like to be told your child has no brain and will never come to term. I can’t imagine the mindset that would drive a person to shoot and kill a doctor who helps women in that situation. I just donated some money to the International Planned Parenthood Federation.

Willy Wagtail is flitting around the garden, flagrantly showing off in front of Petey, who cracked his head on the glass trying to get him.
Just completed a 4.16 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/1bx1zI #runkeeper

That was actually one single loooong run. I lost GPS halfway through and had to restart. My back ached the whole way. 🙁
Coq au vin is simmering on the stove. Time for a glass of wine. Feeling very FRONCH tonight!
“Wow! So this weekend we finally got contents insurance and I told you what I want you to do with my corpse. I feel so grown-up.”
@Justacogitating I took it to mean she was leaving to ESCAPE guys she didn’t want to be with. Which sucks, but better than your version!
Trying to decide if new person at work used “Chester draws” ironically in her email about furniture for sale. I fear not.

May = Suck
Huh. Not very productive on the blogging front here lately, am I? It’s been a sucky couple of weeks, actually. There’s been a lot going on at work, and I’ve had too many extra commitments happening on my weekends. My back hurts. The weather is cold. My stomach is playing up again. The cats have been waking me up too early. I’m just worn out.
That said, I finally got to have a nice, relaxing weekend. Friday night we went to Nilgiris in St. Leonards for Amy’s birthday. That was fun! We had this way cool little private cushion room upstairs, and the food was excellent. Saturday the Snook and I finally made it over to the Eveleigh Farmers’ Market, where we battled hipsters for ingredients to make coq au vin. (The recipe is in the latest Delicious magazine; uses spatchcock instead of rooster.) I spent a great deal of both Saturday and Sunday working on a knitted vest for Andrew and Kathleen‘s new baby. (Congratulations, guys!) Tonight I went for a long 70min run around Glebe and Newtown, which was okay except for my back aching. We had our coq au vin (which was excellent). We finally picked out a contents insurance plan (spurred on by reports of recent burglaries). And now I’m really looking forward to bed.
BRING ON JUNE!

Went to Eveleigh Farmers’ Market. Not sure which was more annoying: crowds of inner west hipsters or paying $7 for a tub of cream cheese.
Actually, it turned out to be damn good cream cheese, so the seven bucks seems justified.

New nephew
Hooray! After more than a few false alarms, my new nephew Mason Anthony Howard was born a few hours ago. Sounds like everybody is doing okay. Congratulations to Ant and Kara!

Guidelines for writing better use cases: http://bit.ly/dsq0X. Food for thought.
It’s odd how getting email from the company that sacked you 6 months before still brings on immediate feelings of annoyance and bitterness.
@kdelarue Very interesting. I got an email the other day from somebody reading it who managed to find my site. I’ll have to look for it…
@kdelarue Treglown (prev biographer) thought that Dahl exaggerated a lot of his “spy” activities. Wonder if Conant has actual evidence…
This is disgusting. An Indian friend told me of a narrow escape from violent racist bogans in Bondi few weeks ago: http://bit.ly/A9Cml
On my way to a special birthday dinner for @gadgetgirl70… 🙂
Hooray! It’s Amy blowing out her candles… http://yfrog.com/0kbw1qj
So stuffed with Indian food. Nilgiris in St Leonards = highly recommended, especially if you get a private cushion room!
Hooray! I’ve got a new little nephew: Mason Anthony Howard. Congrats to Ant and Kara!
@Justacogitating I haven’t gotten much other than a pic. (Just emailed to you guys.) But presumably everything is okay!
@bellsg Good grief. I thought the M&S server crashing last weekend was bad. At least we didn’t get friggin’ death threats over it.
