two trips on the pike, for a total of about 14 hours

This is like miraculous, you guys. Six and a half hours there on Wednesday, seven and a half back today. I am putting stuff away and I've got Fr. Ewan McGregor (along with Tom Hanks, Pierfrancisco Favino, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Ayelet Zurer, and Stellan Skaaarrrsgårrrd) on my television. Things are pretty good.

NoRMaN #5 is in the house!

Not in my house, but still. YAY!

When you have a friend who is (a) expecting a baby in the middle November and (b) kind of a sporadic correspondent, and the end of November rolls around and you haven't heard any baby-related news, you tend to think, well, this is probably because she's mad busy with her normal work and with the new baby - but you still don't want to ask, "Nu?", because sometimes, god forbid, things do go wrong, after all. BUT I sent a little message trying to nail down December-visiting plans, because my December-visiting period is filling up faster than I'd have expected, and the response came back tonight with the news of the baby's name and the fact that she arrived November 12, hurrah!, so I will hopefully get to meet her in just a few weeks.

It's really Auntie Fox who's in the house, is what. :-D
