Everybody's workin' for the weekend

This picture just makes me smile. Was listening to the Killers today, and...ho hum. A little wistful. A little impatient already (the countdown to baby day has already begun). Note to self: self, start an Advent-like baby calendar.

So Jed and I have booked our trip to England (and Portugal--yah, Dave and John!!) for next August. The Captain will be about five months old...I'm voting on Jed to be the honorary "Picard carrier" (can't you just picture him with one of those things that go around your shoulders and hold the baby in front of you? How freakin' cute!). But--get this: we're flying FIRST CLASS. You heard right, nutjobs, in the front of the plane. Ok, am actually excited about this for myself (ahem, champagne, anyone?), but also for the kid. Y'all know they give you a basinette when you're up there away from the peasants? Who woulda thought? Wahoo!

Am hereby and officially OFF the Mexican food. Am also hereby and officially vowing to work out and stop being a lazy ass. Starting tomorrow.
