In the past week or so, Magpie has:
- said "erro" for "hello"
- started eating solids (we couldn't shovel mashed banana into her mouth fast enough)
- sat up by herself
- crawled (it was only a one knee-push, just far enough to reach my wiggly fingers, but it's a start)
And she's not even five months old.
Right now she's tumbling up and down all over the place. Soon we're going to be chasing after her every minute of the day.
She also has the cutest little belly laugh.
- I only just found out that my cousin's father is one of seven sons. And now my cousin (one of two sons) is the father of four daughters (so far). From one extreme to the other.
- The Theatre Royale is putting on Angels in America parts 1 AND 2!! I am so damn tempted to go see both parts. I've wanted to see the whole play performed ever since I first read it. The whole play is about six hours long, which is why productions usually only stage part 1 or 2 but not both. But do I want to spend $150 to see both parts? Hm... so tempted... Waaaant!
- What's the Most Intellectual Joke You Know?
Reminds me of the time in philosophy class we were talking about getting out of doing the upcoming test on Sartre. I suggested our teacher demonstrate Sartre's idea of nothingness. I'm still proud of the fact that it made the entire class roar with laughter.
(For non-philosophy students, I just suggested in the most philosophically geeky way possible that our teacher be absent so we wouldn't have to sit the test.)
As far as I remember, I passed that test, and yes, some of these jokes made me laugh way too hard. Luckily I don't care about ever being considered "cool".
