Butterbean or Butterbette?

I can't claim that one. Someone else said it. I don't know who, off the top of my head, but thanks to whoever it was.

Tomorrow's the big day. XX or XY? Blue (ash) or Pink? Baseball or softball (but never soccer;)! Kim's feeling somewhat better. She went to our family dr. yesterday and paid him $20 to tell her she still has the same stupid virus and it has to run its course. She goes back to the family dr today to get a form filled out for working this summer. And then to the OB tomorrow. Can you say, lab coat oversaturation? We've had a couple peaceful nights lately where she starts feeling the baby flutter around inside her. A few more weeks and I'll be able to feel the soft kicks and moves as well. 21.5 weeks in and I'm really starting to get excited. We've passed the halfway point and it's all downhill from here.

I started the latest Donald Miller book about growing up without a father. I can't relate to everything he talks about, having grown up with a great dad. But it forces me to really see what it might be like to not have one.
My plecostamus (sp.) just made a huge splash in my tank. He's a monster now. Phil's tank pump died, so he gave me his 4 fish, so my school's back up to 8 again. And now I have 2 sucker fish! So if you're keeping score at home:
1 White Skirt Tetra (wimpy fish)
1 Black Skirt Tetra (he and the whitey ate his counterpart a couple weeks ago--he's huge!)
1 Headlight/Taillight Tetra (had since January 05!)
1 Monster Plecostamus
and from Phil's tank
2 Black/Gold Mollies (2nd generation--he actually had them since birth!)
1 Zebra Danio (patroller of the tank--picked up where my suicidal rainbow shark used to lord)
1 Plecostamus (a ways to go to equal the monster's size)

What a random post. And for that matter, a random day.
First Mall supper tonight...a 3rd year tradition that hopefully keeps going strong!
