		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m having the sort of week where I want to lay about in my pajamas and indulge in pleasant fantasies about tropical vacations, so in lieu of a real blog post, here are some updates on things you likely haven&#8217;t thought of since you closed your browser window after first reading about them, if in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think I&#8217;ve mentioned here before that I&#8217;ve had some problems with my eyes since having Ellie. I spent a lot of time in optometrists offices during the summer and fall (time I didn&#8217;t really have, since I had to arrange childcare during the day, and time I really didn&#8217;t want to spend doing that, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Resolved!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[2011 was a pretty fantastic year, on just about every front. Mike passed his final actuarial exam, Ellie arrived, and we bought a new house. I think it&#8217;s pretty clear that 2012 isn&#8217;t likely to be nearly as awesome (although, as my sister-in-law commented, it isn&#8217;t too late to have another baby in 2012, to [...]]]></description>

		<title>January 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At press time, it is December 29, and this means the countdown is on for two very important dates: December 31, when Mike and I go to bed at 9:30 and hope the new year gets rung in somehow without us, and January 2, when the annual influx of eager new members begins at the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cookie math</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had kind of a frustrating morning, trying to get the baby and I out of the house to the gym, which is 25 minutes away and which I had a difficult enough time convincing myself to go to even when it was only FIVE minutes away, and as a result of the morning hassles [...]]]></description>

		<title>Yum</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I was pregnant, I had an app on my phone put out by the What To Expect When You&#8217;re Expecting people. I discovered at some point toward the end that the app linked to their forums, and lo there was much rejoicing, because I spent a lot of time in the last few months [...]]]></description>

		<title>Attention: morning persons</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Do you think a person can change from a Non Morning Person into one of those Morning People? It&#8217;s something I&#8217;ve been pondering lately, wondering if there&#8217;s some kind of training you can undergo that will magically transform you into someone for whom getting out of bed in the morning is an experience to embrace [...]]]></description>

		<title>You&#8217;ve got mail! (eventually)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My cousin Trish got married in July, and then promptly moved to Kuwait, for reasons that are unclear even to me, but which apparently have nothing to do with abandoning me and everything to do with finding a job over there that &#8220;pays well&#8221; and &#8220;is fulfilling&#8221; and &#8220;helps further her career&#8221; or some-such nonsense.

		<title>Will write for kittens</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today is Babysitter Day, when our lovely babysitter comes for a few hours so I can get some work done (I guess that is pretty self explanatory, so I didn&#8217;t really need to elaborate, but you&#8217;re welcome for the explanation anyway) and I have 25 minutes left of babysitter time in which to post this, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The baby is napping and I&#8217;m watching Restaurant Makeover through my fingers the same way I do with horror movies because the restaurant owners keep changing their minds about what they want and calling the designer and 4 in the morning and it is making me TOO TENSE. Did you notice above where I said [...]]]></description>
