Apparently there was an earthquake last night, and I am very near to the epicenter. I didn't feel a thing. -_- My very first earthquake, and I slept right through it!!!! Oh well...

I have a suspicion that I'm so used to my dog jumping on and off of my bed at night, and kicking me, headbutting me, and generally just making her presence known, that I probably assumed it was her and didn't even wake up.

Rian, that's nice! How old is your son?
Hehe, my mum has been telling all her colleagues and friends about my sis having a boyfriend. Must be a mum-thing.

I feel really grown-up and womanly when I bake.

Just thought I'd put that out there.

Firstly, "womanly" is a stupid word. Secondly, I hope you are not implying that baking is a "woman's job". /crank

Hehe, I'm glad you feel positively about baking, but haven't you ever baked before? I've been baking cakes for everyone's birthdays since I was 14.

womanly is not a stupid word, silly. Stupid is a stupid word. By definition!

Same here that I've been baking for a long time. I feel grown up when I pay bills though. And I feel womanly when I do all kinds of things that if I tell you I'm just going to get accused of being obscene again. Seriously, my mind's been in the gutter lately.

Ok, just for that comment, when I actually do get old, I will make sure you hear all the details of my sex life.

To me womanly sounds like 25-35 or so with a full, curvy body. Manly is a new interest for me now that I'm starting to grow out of adolescent boys.

Actually, I was baking more cookies for my husband's birthday party. They are G-O-O-D.

Feminine is my goal. I want to be womanly. Because I'm a woman. My husband can act like a man because he is one. I'll act like a woman because that's what I am.

And of course I'm not saying that only women can bake. I'm just saying that in my own particular household, baking is the woman's (my) job because if it weren't, there would never be any baked goods around, except what my husband went out and bought (which doesn't count as much, because you don't get the freshly baked smell with it).

I'm with Katya on this one. Womanly is not OLD, as in grey-haired, frumpy, I-wear-sneakers-with-pantyhose. What I feel when I say womanly is the difference between the attractive woman you see at the grocery store by herself versus the "pretty/cute" 14-year-old you see trying to ditch her mother so she can act like the attractive woman. When I bake, I feel like that attractive woman instead of the awkward 14-year old.

AND IN ADDITION!

I got a new mouse. My old one's clicking mechanism broke. FYI, when that happens, it's time for a new mouse. AND I GOT ONE!

Couldn't you have got it repaired?
j/k, that doesn't happen, it's like repairing a broken pen.
If you have suffered through a mouse that is approaching its life limit, you deserve a new one when it finally dies!

Well said, Midge!

n.b. - while my husband is the better cook, I'm the better baker.

Mari - he just turned 20. He's gone out on dates, but this is his first "real" girlfriend.

"And we're back on M.O.O.T. 102,2 with the Moots playing this Beach Boys tune, slightly changed..."

Well east coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when i'm down there

The mid-west farmer's daughters really make you feel alright
And the northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night

I wish they all could be Entmoot
I wish they all could be Entmoot
I wish they all could be Entmoot girls

The west coast has the sunshine
And the girls all get so tanned
I dig a french bikini on hawaii island
Dolls by a palm tree in the sand

I been all around this great big world
And i seen all kinds of girls
Yeah, but i couldn't wait to get back in the states
Back to the cutest girls in the world

I wish they all could be Entmoot
I wish they all could be Entmoot
I wish they all could be Entmoot girls

I wish they all could be Entmoot
(girls, girls, girls yeah i dig the)
I wish they all could be Entmoot
(girls, girls, girls yeah i dig the)
I wish they all could be Entmoot
(girls, girls, girls yeah i dig the)
I wish they all could be Entmoot
(girls, girls, girls yeah i dig the)

Damn. Two more hours to go at work, and nothing to do - I'm all alone here. And would prefer not to bother any of the teachers during their vacation. >_<

I want to make a fruitsalad with really weird fruits. Anyone got weird fruits to add to my so far rather ordinary salad of melon, apple and strawberry?
