    Good News

    The little fella is home from hospital and on oral antibiotics, and responding well.

    Not that the little bugger ever looked anything less than cheery, even with a temp of 39.8C. Kids are so cool the way they don't dwell on being ill.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Everything you post tonight seems to be *whoosh*ing past me. Did I miss something again?

    Whatever happened, glad your wee one's OK. Isn't it amazing how they'll sit around smiling and playing straight through a malady or injury that'd have us Hairy-Arsed Men moaning and whimpering for chicken soup and painkillers?

    That's because I am the cross-posting, thread-hijacking waffler from hell.

    There was a ride today that I had to decline because we thought Jacob would need medical attention.

    That's great news for your little guy. Phew! I must have missed your reply on the other thread also.
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    Thanks Badcat.

    I checked out your profile, and you have a Lovely child, but Microsoft baby clothes?

    Just kidding

    Talking microsoft and life at the deathstar.

    yep - it's a long story.
    i've been a macintosh zealot for 15 years - now working for microsoft - channel development manager for mac microsoft products.
    we had just bought our first house and andre (my beautiful wife) was pregnant with sampson. the job came out of the blue as a 6 month contract and i thought someone was playing a joke on me - but i took as i REALLY was in financial hades....
    turns out that my division is unique as it's actually is a part of microsoft australia - we do pc games and Xbox too. it's actually a great place to work and i love it! The shirt on the boy is really just to rile up my macuser friends...
    and no-one commented that he's asleep and dreaming of riding a bike at 3 months!!!!!

    ken
    happily part of the borg.
    (actually - there are a lot of bikers at MS!)

    It's good to be reminded from time to time what the really important things in life are.
    The worst moment of my life was when I was told that a possible reason why my 2 year old son's platelet count had fallen to less than 10,000 was leukemia. We had to wait until the next day for the results of the bone marrow biopsy. Fortunately it turned out to be a benign, temporary condition...
    I know how you feel, Jim!
    FWIW you will never stop worrying, but it's a small price to pay...
    Age is too high a price to pay for maturity
