Well aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?
Oh boy. I could never be an outright atheist, because I see constant evidence of the Ineffable One's existence, manifest in a perverse sense of humor.
Remember how I was going to spend my "vacation" down south resting, recuperating from my cold, and letting the gaggle of relatives spoil the baby?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
What was the highlight of our trip? Gigi's first trip to the emergency room! Yep, the crud that Mommy and Daddy have been fighting off is probably viral pneumonia. Oh, and Gigi also has a urinary tract infection. The 104-degree fever kinda tipped us off that there was a problem over the weekend. The good news is that she is on the road to a full recovery, thanks to the wonders of modern medicine. I will spare you the gory details of the medical intricacies; let it suffice to say that catheters were involved.
About Me
- Mugs
- I'm originally from North America and I work in the travel industry. I started this blog when I was living in Baltic Europe and wanted to keep family and friends updated on my first pregnancy. I took maternity leave for a year, and came a little closer to figuring out what I want to be when I grow up - but alas, the job of "Katharine Hepburn" was taken. So after fifteen months of Stay-at-Home-Mom-hood, I returned to the workforce in January 2006. My husband and I have a daughter born in 2004 and a son born in 2006 (known on this blog as "Gigi" and "Halley" respectively). My company transferred me to a nice warm island in July 2006, where I get to spend the next three years (at least!) So why the name "Purple Scare"? Because when I created the blog, I was living behind the Rusted Iron Curtain, and I like the color purple more than red. Write me at purplescareblog@gmail.com.
