It is always a strange relief to me to discover that someone else has/does precisely the same weird brain tricks I do. Which is good, because I have a bunch of them.

Our backyard holds quite a decent barbecue, even without midgets, stilts, costumes, or illicit fire. We should do that more often.

If you're combining breastfeeding and bottlefeeding, how do you know when your child needs to go up to the faster-flow bottle nipples? Oh, YOU'LL know. Trust me.

Natalie travels alarmingly well. I think she is most happy when being worn in a carrier, facing out, so that she can see lots of new people (who inevitably look her in the eyes and make big exciting faces). That said, damn, I am very happy to finally be home for a while after traveling for three weeks. Now I can finally start answering email again.

Why is it that when I *don't* have my camera, beautiful photo opportunities keep cropping up?
---
I have a good life with good people in it. The large ones are awesome, and even the very small ones are excellent. I wish I had more time to write about things I've been thinking, actually, but I suppose it could be worse.

cameras prevent photogenicity, same way umbrellas prevent rain. i'm planning on spending money i don't have to get a camera to carry all the time. this way, i'll be sure my life will be unencumbered by beauty and inspiration.

Date: 2006-06-08 01:48 pm (UTC)upon reflection, it's clear what you mean, but i admit i found myself pausing to wonder whether i would normally count as a "large" or a "small" person. as well as the more mysterious, difficult question of why larger correlates to better.
unfair to the short!
