Spam on Blogs?

So, I was annoyed today when I looked at my blog and thought I had a new comment posted. But no, it was a freaking spam thingy. Stupid blogger spam! There should be no spam comments! This irks me. This is my new anger trigger.


Here are Liesel and Fibby sitting together on the couch. Doesn't this picture just make you want to take them home? That's the plan. This is the picture we're passing around to get takers on the kittens. Posted by Hello

How to make me feel incompetent

So, we had this parent mini conference thing today at school. I thought things had gone well and was feeling pretty good about my ability. Then I got a copy of this email that a parent had sent the principal; "I just wanted to say "thank you" for going past 9:00am and for having this. The teachers on Team 8-8 are wonderful. Mrs. Dutchie, Mrs. White, Mrs. Bullock and Mrs. Williamson are great teachers as are the others and my son is really enjoying their classes."
Whose name is not mentioned? Which of the four core teachers is not mentioned?
What a great way to throw me into a depression when my parents are going to be gone all weekend and Ben seemed unhappy with me earlier this week.
I think I'm going to stay in bed all weekend.

Kitten update

While I thought that the kittens were at their peak of cuteness last weekend, I was wrong. They are so adorable. Now they are all about the exploring and running around like crazy stage. I've posted new pictures. The girl kittens are pretty anti-weening, so we're trying to get them to eat some kitten food so they can eventually go live with other people. Maybe if I never get them to eat kitten food, they can stay with me forever! I don't think Mom would like that too much. Or maybe she would. She likes the kittens a lot.
On other news, I get interviewed today for Ben's security clearance. Let's hope this process goes quickly so he can get his job and I can move with him closer to my job. I've decided that by the next September I'm either moving closer, or finding a closer school. I'm always exausted; getting up at 4:45 five mornings a week is awful. I'm excited that on the weekends I can get up at seven and sleep in for two hours and fifteen minutes! That's so sad that waking up at seven gives me multiple extra hours of sleep.


For some reason this picture is sideways. Here's Tycho sleeping on a sheet. Posted by Hello

Here's the cutest little girl, Fibby, looking at me from the futon drawer. Posted by Hello


Liesel, like her namesake, is very athletic and was the first of the kittens to climb to the top of the futon. Posted by Hello
