The software edited out the diacritical marks that are necessary for making hyperlinks! Instead of [ or ] (brackets), use the left-facing or right-facing carat marks that appear on the comma and period keys on a QWERTY keyboard. Oy, with the poodles already. Huh.

Right now, I am reading One Bullet Away: The Making of a Marine Officer, by Nathaniel Fick. Fick is one of the men depicted in the HBO miniseries Generation Kill, and once I saw that, I decided I had to read Fick’s book. So far, it is very good.

I've been hunting for a true emerald green for ages and this is just tremendous! It looks darker in the picture, but it's a true, pure green. http://www.coastalscents.com/cfwebstore/index.cfm/product/259_34/chromium-green-oxide.cfm Chloe, I very strongly recommend Chromium Green Oxide from from Coastal Scent.

I also don't watch many movies (too much of a time commitment)...and I've tried Coke Zero, but never Cherry Coke Zero. I have had maybe five regular cokes in my entire life, and don't like those either, though... And I recently found your blog and love it! Thank you for doing it! Catherine - I don't like it when she cries, or the diapers either, but the rest is really incredible, and she's a good tempered baby so she doesn't cry often (maybe once a week?)...
