baby school

saturday morning, siouxs! and i attended a three and a half hour class about infant care taught by what had to be the least popular nurse in neonatal.  she was a rambler, so we didn't get to the things that actually would have been most helpful, like the best way to bathe a baby.  we ran long, and she kept those of us who are planning to use cloth diapers for our children even longer to show us what we're probably never going to have to do, namely to use diaper pins without sticking the baby (not a hard concept, as my mom's quite the seamstress).
nonetheless, i'm glad we took the class.  we did learn a few things, i guess, and we had at least one good laugh at the nurse's expense (ask siouxs! about "sparse heads" sometime).  mostly, it was a good way to alleviate a little anxiety about the fact that we're only a few months away from having responsibility for another human being.
more baby classes are on the horizon.  should they warrant, i'll mention them.
 
that bastard alito is probably going to be put on the supreme court.  where did we go wrong?  they had the republikkkans on the ropes, and now they're just giving them a pass?  is this about the hobo-killing that starts every senate and house term of office?  i thought that was bipartisan!  you sons of bitches, what have i done?
 
fuck sam alito and john roberts
