Head Tale - Yet Another Librarian's Blog

Shea and I went for an ultrasound today and got to see our first glimpse of the baby. No glimpse of twins (unfortunately) or whether it had dangly bits. But it was still pretty cool to see the little guy/gal swimming around. The technician had to wake the baby up by giving Shea's belly a poke but once Oscar was awake, he/she kicked his/her feet, waved "hello" at us and then did a somersault for good meaasure. It goes without saying that we have the cutest baby ever!

I attempted to digitally enhance the photo a bit so it wasn't so dark but this is about as good as I could get it. Oscar's laying on his/her back with the head to the right side of the picture.

My Favourite Britney Spears Song...

Ooops, I did it again...

The blob was down again due to bandwidth issues. (Hmm, blob could be taken literally in this case - damn fat web site!) Last month when it went down, they told me they'd double my bandwidth on an ongoing basis but I talked to them today and it seems like that didn't "stick". Hopefully the problem will be solved now.

Some random thoughts...
- either thousands of people are hitting this page per month or my mother-in-law is hitting refresh thousands of times by herself. (Probably a mix of both.)
- for those of you who do refresh this page a bit "obsessively" or have an automatic reload on your RSS feed, don't worry about it. It's my responsibility to make sure the page is available and as someone who wrote me offline observed, I guess I'm a victim of my own success in many ways (or being punished by going with a company with a really low bandwidth limit!)
- no, I won't be putting banner ads on the site anytime soon to help pay for more bandwidth!

Thanks for your patience and understanding about these problems. I think there are two types of readers out there - those who read to see what's going on with me and my life and those who are reading to see what's going on with FIMS (again, the lines aren't 100% distinct.) But because of this, I have a feeling that my bandwidth is going to drop off significantly in a month or so when I'm gone. So hopefully this won't be an issue again!
