Best Sci-Fi series ever

Meredith and I just finished watching the season finale of Battlestar Galactica. Wow. The entire season was amazing. The writing has been great, the acting superb.

This is the best Sci-Fi series I’ve ever seen. It’s that good.

Final Four

I couldn’t believe that the Lady Vols lost tonight to Michigan State, especially after being ahead by 16 points. It certainly was quite a game.

Oh well :( It was quite a run, at any rate, and I’m glad that they at least made it to the semi-finals. Go Vols!

Fun with searches

It’s always fun to read the search queries people use to find mohea. Here are a few recent good ones:

  • is lube oil is good bussiness – no, is not.
  • pantyhose blog – truly, there are blogs for everything these days. Just not here.
  • oil sucks – actually, it’s really a good thing, in moderation.
  • jake s nude picture – you’ll be happy to know that every single picture of Jake on our web site is sans clothes. We find that cats usually don’t like clothes.
  • diaper save target as – can you save straight to the trash can?
  • black tea benefits penis – um, ok.
  • green tea penis enlargement – wait, I thought black tea was better. I’m so confused.
  • tree boring – shrubbery exciting.
  • what s the proper way of wearing a wedding band ring? – insert finger.
  • sucky wheat – yeah, wheat is so lame.
  • how to shut down ford engines after 5 min – turn the ignition off?

Nathan the Destructor

Nathan, all on his own, has recently learned a fun new game. It goes like this:

  • Lie down on the play pad
  • Lift feet straight up, bending back as far as possible towards head
  • Stretch legs as straight as possible
  • Crash legs down to the ground as hard as possible

The goal? To catch the arch with his feet, and topple the entire thing over. On doing so, Nathan smiles and shakes with excitement and glee, waiting for a parent to reset it so that he can knock it down again.

Ah, that’s my boy.

Four months

Yesterday, Nathan turned four months old. To celebrate, he laughed for the first time. We were giving him a bath in the kitchen sink, and when I started rinsing him off with the sprayer, he laughed and laughed and laughed! Meredith and I were so happy :)

This morning he had his check-up at the doctor. He’s doing fine – perfectly healthy in every way. He weighed 16 pounds, 10 ounces. Clearly he’s getting enough to eat. He also got his next set of four vaccinations, which didn’t upset him nearly as much as last time. In a week and a half, we take him back to the orthopedist to look at his club feet. We can’t remember if the braces are supposed to come off (in the daytime) at that appointment or some later date, but it’s relatively soon, at any rate.

Nathan completely mauled himself in the middle of the night last night. He woke up at 5 AM and went from making a little bit of noise to screaming his head off within about 25 seconds. I got up with him and cuddled / fed him back to sleep, but when we got up again (at 7:30) noticed that he had badly scratched the top of his head. (Note to self: cut his fingernails WAY more often. Like every other day.)

He’s still an incredibly easy-going, mellow baby. We really are very lucky.
