Poo-capalypse
All I asked was, “How’s the day going?” The wife’s response:
So funny story…
You know when you were getting ready to leave, you helped Matthew get dressed? I almost told you not to, because I always get him dressed at the last minute, in case something happens to him to get dirty. Well today, something happened…
He and baby daniel were playing super cutely. Daniel was just in his diaper and Matthew in his uniform and mama was halfway thru her hair. All was going superbly well. Then Daniel had a massive blow out. His 2nd poop of the morning.
Matthew comes into the bathroom as I’m doing my hair. “Mama, the baby pooped on me”. OMG.
Poop everywhere. On his arms, on his shirt, on his legs, on his shorts, on his socks. Everywhere. Poo-capalypse!
Poo on the carpet. poo on the cars rug. Poo EVERYWHERE. It was epic.
So I had to fish Matthew’s dirty uniform from yesterday out of the hamper. It took 20 minutes to restore order.Then i somehow managed to finish my hair, get both boys dressed, and make it to school on time looking presentable. It was out of control.
Gabi, you’re an amazing mom, an amazing woman. I don’t know how you do it.
The Debunker: Is There A “Dark Side” Of The Moon?
The Debunker: Is There A “Dark Side” Of The Moon?
It should be obvious that, indeed, one half of the Moon is always lit by the Sun, and one half is dark. But, despite the impression you may have gotten from bad science-fiction movies and prog-rock albums, it’s not always the same side…
The global debt clock
The clock is ticking. Every second, it seems, someone in the world takes on more debt. The idea of a debt clock for an individual nation is familiar to anyone who has been to Times Square in New York, where the American public shortfall is revealed. Our clock (updated September 2012) shows the global figure for almost all government debts in dollar terms.
The numbers are staggering. However, viewing the debt as dollars per-capita is slightly less troubling than just seeing the total numbers for each country and total numbers for the world.
Chrome Time Machine
It’s amazing that Chrome’s been out for four years now. It’s been my portal to the web since it launched. It is unusual that a piece of software keeps getting better with such consistently. The link above has a very cool timeline of major milestones in the app’s history.
