At least, that's what the Dems should be calling him. The Republicans might prefer “Donald Rumsfeld is a fan of revisionist history.” You make the call.

So I've been thinking of selling this watch I have, because, even though it's pretty, I don't retain very good memories of the person who gave it to me, and hey, I could use the bucks. So I've been online looking for it, so I can get an idea of what it's worth. And I can't find the freakin' thing ANYWHERE. It's seriously Twilight Zone. Like it never existed, except in the alternate dimension in which I live.

In this day and age, is it unreasonable for me to expect that EVERYTHING is available on the Internet, somewhere?

And, anyone know a good watch appraiser? I might bring him something he's never seen before.

It's official — the baby is now sleeping better than I am. Ugh. He woke up at 2:30 and went right back to sleep. Nearly three hours later, I'm still awake. Even my new book on the history of the NSA didn't put me under. And I'm still nursing, so that means Tylenol PM is out. Grrr. My brain is too full, and my Brian is too wheezy for me to wake him up with a clear conscience, and I can't clean house because that would be too loud (I'm kind of a maniac when I clean the house).

So, here I am. Anyone up for a game of cards?

mean, this almost was my anniversary. Monstro was really eager for us to get married on May fourth. Why? So that the pastor could offer the following benediction:

“May the fourth be with you.”

Yeah. His favorite date is May fourth — mine is March fourth. We celebrated by walking into town and being happily surprised at running into a bunch of people we know: two people Brian knew, my doula, and Nicki and Emily. Pretty great.

At 1:00 I finished work on the Web site I've been doing for a client. It looks great, reads clean, and I really feel like I've outdone myself. I'll send a link to anyone who wants it (or anyone who's looking for a geriatric care manager).

Then this afternoon I read some of the comments at http://manolobrides.com and saw that people have refered to me as “lucky Motormouth” and “Motormouth is right.” Both of which are, as always, music to my ears.

Afterwards, I took some pictures of Alexander in his little Oakland A's outfit and one of them is the cutest picture EVER taken of him (and yes, this includes the Easter Bunny picture).

And then, the coup de grace, I took the Muppet personality quiz and achieved nirvana:

You Are Miss Piggy

A total princess and diva, you're totally in charge – even if people don't know it. You want to be loved, adored, and worshiped. And you won't settle for anything less. You're going to be a total star, and you won't let any of the “little people” get in your way. Just remember, piggy, never eat more than you can lift!

Monstro had a good day online, too, but I'll let him tell you about that. Or I'll blab if he doesn't.

“This administration is soaring. If anything, they are rearranging the deck chairs on the Hindenburg!”

Here's the link, and here's my favorite line (so far): Fox News gives you both sides of every story:  the president's side, and the vice president's side.

You Should Be a Film Writer

You don't just create compelling stories, you see them as clearly as a movie in your mind. You have a knack for details and dialogue. You can really make a character come to life. Chances are, you enjoy creating all types of stories. The joy is in the storytelling. And nothing would please you more than millions of people seeing your story on the big screen!

The only thing that would please me more than millions of people seeing my story on the big screen is spending the millions of dollars that I'd get paid as part of the Writer's Guild.

And OMG, that's totally the hair I had back in college. Don't believe me? Ask Steve Sloan!

Your Superhero Profile

Which is funny, because I've been fairly psychic ever since about the fourth month of my pregnancy, and it continues to this day. And my sling is, indeed, stellar.
