ABOUT THIS RESEARCHER

Created: 10th October 2002 
A little about Emee
I read the books ages ago, starting with (in a truly stylish manner, I like to think) 'Mostly Harmless'. I found the H2G2 site through a great improbability which I am not qualified to calculate due to my possession of an undergrad in English. Still, that hasn't prevented me from working as an accountant. I never like to let little things like 'practicality' get in my way.

I live in the US, specifically Oklahoma. To borrow from a fave film, "I am often surprised by life's little quirks." (Westley, P/B). Pinniped has put together a comprehensive quiz if you'd like to test your knowledge (on the film, not on Oklahoma).

I've never done anything in HTML or GuideML which will become increasingly apparent as I attempt to expand my personal space and ask all sorts of annoying questions. I decided to join up after wading through some backlog in the 'Thingite'spork forum. It was entertaining and silly ; and, let's face it. We could use more silly in the world.

I've joined the Southeastern US Reasearchers Group. Visit the page to see a list of members and a list of entries on the South. (I haven't figured out yet how to do a dropdown box.erm ). I'm also an 'Amy'. I even have my own category. biggrin I'm also a H2G2 game addict. Drop in and you can be an addict too.

Here's my H2G2 code block. I know it isn't formatted correctly yet. erm

...by Emee. Sometimes I hate knowing that being smart and moral won't get me as far as being stupid and amoral or even average and mostly moral.

Dog!
Sep 29, 2008

We got a dog last week. He's a pug/yorkie mix - 7 months old - very cute - very small - very laid back. Baby can pull on his ears and tail and he just lays there. It's great. Mr. Emee is out of town this week and taking the doggie for walks is a bit of a trick. Peanut doesn't want to walk and I don't have a double stroller. The kids are obviously not old enough to stay by themselves for any length of time either.

Baby was sick again last week. dragon Not sure what it was. She was fine except for the vomiting. *shudder*

Had a headache for 3 weeks and finally went to the doctor on Friday. She put me on more blood pressure meds. Felt a lot better Saturday & Sunday and started out feeling better today. Have a headache again. Maybe it's time to change my glasses. Or my job. Or something.

No party yesterday...
Sep 4, 2008

Peanut threw up from 9pm Monday night until 7am Tuesday morning. She couldn't even keep a few sips of water down so we took her to the pediatrician Tuesday afternoon. Ped sent us to the hospital's new pediatric urgent care to have IV fluids. She perked up some while we were there and started asking for drinks and food. She and I stayed home yesterday. She watched cartoons until I thought her head would explode and she took a good 3 hour nap in the afternoon. I caught up on laundry and got some dishes done. She seems completely fine today and went to daycare. I have my fingers crossed that Mr. Emee and I don't get it.

Single Mom
Aug 28, 2008

I've been a single mom this week while Mr. Emee has been in Houston for training. It's been surprisingly nice. Peanut threw one mopey fit on Monday morning when I dropped her off at daycare and other than that - nada. It's been peaceful and I haven't had to raise my voice much to the kids and I haven't been nearly as stressed out. I wonder if it's the change to the morning routine. Mr Emee isn't there to get all wound up about whether or not he's going to be late for work and then pass that stress on to the rest of us. Guess I'll have to wait and see.

We're going to Mr Emee's homestead again this weekend. His cousin is getting married at the end of October at her parent's house and they want to fix some things up before the wedding. How do I say no? Maybe that's the REAL source of my stress - not enough no's and too much self-effacement. And maybe I should just see a shrink. I have tomorrow and Tuesday off in addition to the holiday weekend. The kiddos are going to daycare both days. Woohoo! Party at my house.

Speaking of party and the end of October, the wedding is on the weekend we were going to have Peanut's birthday party. I guess we'll have it the next weekend and just have a costume party. That could be a lot of fun - house full of pre-schoolers still on a sugar high from trick-or-treating all running through my house... then again, maybe we should skip it this year...
