Happy New Year!

I spent the weekend with my friend Tom and his wife and their three new babies. The idea was to get Tom and Christine a little caught-up on their sleep so I was on nighttime feeding duty (every two hours!) with one of Tom's sisters. It was great spending time with all of them, but I'm still really tired. We rung-in the new year together and they crashed and I came back home downtown. Not eventful, but it was nice all the same. For anyone that ever watched Absolutely Fabulous, I had a "moment" over the weekend that made me think of Eddie and smile. It was from the episode "New Best Friend" when Eddie's (formerly) minimalist and cool friends arrive for the weekend with a new baby. The line I was reminded me of was when an unimpressed Eddie points to her shirt and says "Lacroix, baby spew. Lacroix, baby spew." Here's a picture of her from that episode and then one of me. All the best to everyone in the new year!

Here's me saying "Eddie Bauer, baby spew."

I did the resolutions thing this year, and I think I have at least a 50-50 chance of keeping them, which is better than my recent average of zero. I'm not sharing though, although I may mention them in passing to Hubble if it comes up. You can read Heather Mallick's resolutions though here. She's one of the best writers around, and she always makes me smile.

I miss AbFab!
When I got babyspew on me once, I shrieked like an altarboy waking up at the wrong moment!
I love babies. Even the spewy ones.
I like baby batter more than baby spew.
omg! New Years Eve I spent the entire day in bed watching AbFab on BBC America. It was enchanting.
AW! And how nice of you. Btw, that's nothing.
you are sooooo good to HELP..omg. i feel for them.
Peter, if you are lactating enough to feed three babies, you should go get checked out.
Three babies. You're very brave. Braver than AG.
I love the sweet and sour smell of spew. Not.
