Stats, Boz, Cleveland

By StackyMcRacky (Tue Mar 04, 2008 at 11:18:26 PM EST) (all tags)

and perhaps other things

Feb 20 was my son's 6 month checkup. He's 18 lbs 11 oz and 27 inches long. It seems he's been slacking a bit, as he's dropped down to the 75th percentile. All's well, and he's been cleared to eat solid foods to his heart's content (which is quite a bit, actually).

Whatever the Saturday was after the 20th, we headed out west to the land of theboz. Babyboz is disgustingly adorable. She and the dude had a good time playing, and we had a great time socializing with other parents.

I watched This Is Spinal Tap for the first time recently.

Today, we returned from a week-long trip to Cleveland. It was cold the first few days. My poor baby boy had a terrible time sleeping the first night due to arctic temperatures in my mother-in-law's unheated basement. The second night, we put the hide-a-bed mattress (damn bars!) on the floor of the office, and things were much warmer (did I mention my m-i-l likes to keep the house at 50F? she gets hot easily). Anyway, the dude did awesome on both flights (he was complimented by everybody who sat around us on how well-behaved he was), and clock had a wonderful time with his family. I had a good time as well.

It seems one Mr. Abooey decided to stand us up, which disappointed me to no end. I was really hoping for the money photo of all of our shoes together. Oh well, maybe next time!

Alas, it is late, and I'm exhausted. One day I'll find the time to write something worthwhile. Being a full-time mom is a frack-ton of work!

These go to eleven. by wiredog (4.00 / 5) #1 Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 07:40:35 AM EST

You're just now seeing Spinal Tap? And 256 is just now seeing Repo Man?

What is it with the geeks around here? Next thing you know Mr Ha, or Webwench, or someone, will be admitting they haven't seen Blade Runner yet. In any version.

HOLY CRAP! by nightflameblue (2.00 / 0) #16 Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 12:09:54 PM EST

And you thought there was something wrong with not ever seeing Blade Runner?

OK, certain traumatic experiences are suppressed by wiredog (2.00 / 0) #17 Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 12:23:11 PM EST

Like Howard the Duck. The movie version, that is. Started watching it once, on cable, while extremely stoned, and found it dull. You could torture Al Qaeda prisoners by taping their eyes open (Clockwork Orange style) and making them watch it. Except that would be too evil even for Dick Cheney.

: It's already on my buy list. by nightflameblue (2.00 / 0) #8 Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 10:09:26 AM EST

I've seen bits and pieces over the years, and know I'd like the rest. But I've never had the chance to just sit and watch it all the way through. I aim to rectify that.

One of the best movies EVAR! by greyrat (2.00 / 0) #9 Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 10:10:32 AM EST

My favorite few seconds is when Harrison Ford takes a drink (of Victory Gin, probably) while cleaning up after betting beat up. Awesome attention to detail.

Yeah, Winston by sasquatchan (4.00 / 1) #10 Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 10:20:57 AM EST

was quite the sympathetic character. For a replicant.

: In the end, all the replicants were sympathetic by wiredog (4.00 / 2) #12 Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 10:37:56 AM EST

Part of the point of the whole thing.

I wish more people had seen it by fencepost (4.00 / 3) #19 Wed Mar 05, 2008 at 12:45:24 PM EST

Then they would've gotten my reference after my wife's spinal tap a few days ago: "Her pain went to 11"

I mostly got confused looks.

But what we really want to know is by vorheesleatherface (2.00 / 0) #21 Fri Mar 07, 2008 at 11:05:47 AM EST

how hard was it to not throw up the horns and shout "Hello Cleveland!" Or did you?

I will NEVER throw up horns, even for funny reasons.

the metal devil sign has different meaning down your way. Sports stuff. I understand.

frak. by cicero (2.00 / 0) #24 Sun Mar 09, 2008 at 03:39:26 AM EST

that's the only thing I hate about bsg.

I used to really hate baltar too, but the second time I watched season 1, he became a better character. now frak's the only thing that I hate.

well, that and the fact that season 3 is being released on dvd in the states like, a week before season 4 starts.
