doubling

This morning I am thinking about the way babies double sounds when they learn to talk. Aside from the culturally normal mama and dada, Dillo has car-car, ball-ball, and dog-dog. Yesterday he added wa-wa, for water.

Aside from this I am very tired after spending a good 2/3 of yesterday lying down with an upset stomach, coming back to work to a piled up day of stuff, and the continuing Dillo is a nighttime ice weasel problem.

right.

So, my coworker had a baby yesterday (name: Conrad Herlastname HisveryblandSmithlikelastname), and the thing I am covering for her is, naturally, going berserk. I have spent an entire hour on IM with The Goddess of UNC and she got the big problem fixed, but now another coworker's account won't work for no known reason. Argh.

This is payback for when I had a baby and the now-new-mom was left managing the move of our collection to the renovated old building.
