MY TONY LITTLE AB ISOLATOR VHS TAPE JUST BROKE AND I NEED TO REPLACE IT QUICKLY. ANYONE OUT THERE HAVE ONE THEY WOULD LIKE TO GET RID OF. I HAVE BEEN USING THIS (OFF AND ON) SINCE 1995 

THANKS, 

NANCY


Dear  Nancy

1995?!? Don't you think you'd have it memorized by now? If it hasn't worked in 14 years it's not going to get any better. And why do you still have a VHS? There are obvious drawbacks, that you seem to have stumbled on. Maybe it's finally time to invest in a DVD player. 

On an unrelated note, you might want to try hitting that caps-lock button once more. It will allow you to write it a combination of capital and lower cased letters. You might not have realized you could hold the shift key down in order to capitalize letters. 

Tom has pointed out that I have insensitively forgotten that this Ab video is very important to you. I, however, suspect foul play. I don't think Nancy is actually working out to this video. Yikes!

PS. Thank you craigslist.

Here is a craigslist post which we have decided to view as a note to us.

I have an extra maroon snuggie I'd like to get rid of. With shipping and handling, it cost me $15. If you want one, I"ll save you the trouble of ordering through snuggie b/c they will trick you into buying more than you want.  

Please email and we can figure out pick-up. I live about 2mi from the dunn loring metro station. 

Thank you!

Dear Snuggie,
I prefer the Slanket. They are less likely to trick you! Although, we think you might have actually wanted these extra snuggies hoping against hope that a friend would come along.  A snuggie friend. One who likes to reach their remotes without getting cold.  We hope that instead of finding a sale you find a bosom buddy. 

Best of luck!
SLANKETS RULE, SNUGGIES DROOL!

ps- why did you pick maroon?

Why we love craigslist.

Erik and I saw this today on craigslist and thought it was very amusing. Below is our fictional response.

Looking to buy a few boxes asap.. I can not find a girl scout anywhere, and I check the site for a chapter and there is not one in my area that I can find. Please contact me if you have cookies and willing to deliver if not I can pick up near a close train station. 

Thank You..

Dear G.S. Cookie Lover,

We're worried about you.  Did you get your cookies? Did you find a girl scout, somewhere? This is concerning as I cannot avoid running into them or their tasty cookies.  Maybe you can be a troop leader, but maybe you are out of compliance with "Megan's Law" with this post on craigslist.  Who knows? 

Best of luck,
Thin Mint Lovers

Baby 2.0!

Hi friends!

Thanks for all the well wishes. It is nice that the news is out and we don't have to keep things secretive any longer. Erik seems to be very excited about the upcoming arrival of 2.0 and last night we talked through some name options as well. We have decided not to find out the sex of 2.0 until he/she is born and will then decide on a name. I really do love surprises, so this seems to work out well. We will be taking bets on the birth day and the sex of the baby at a big picnic party sometime in June.

Here is a picture of our little baby at 8 weeks and 5 days. This was 4 weeks ago. According to the interwebs 2.0 is now the size of a lime. How crazy is that!

From Babycenter.com
The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. Your baby's fingers will soon begin to open and close, toes will curl, eye muscles will clench, and the mouth will make sucking movements. In fact, if you prod your abdomen, your baby will squirm in response, although you won't be able to feel it. The intestines, which have grown so fast that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into his abdominal cavity about now, and his kidneys will begin excreting urine into the bladder.

Meanwhile, nerve cells are multiplying rapidly, and in your baby's brain, synapses are forming furiously. The face looks unquestionably human: eyes have moved from the sides to the front of his head, and ears are right where they should be. From crown to rump, your baby-to-be is just over 2 inches long (about the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce.

Claire is pregnant

The baby is due September 27th. I honestly don't know who reads this that doesn't know already, but who knows.
