I might as well have thrown in a paragraph about the weather

You'd think paying top dollar for a vacuum cleaner would guarantee that the thing would really SUCK and keep on SUCKING for many years to come. But no. Unfortunately my Dyson now only sucks metaphorically. As opposed to literally. Because, you know, vacuum humor? HILARIOUS.

Continuing down my list of complaints about Items I Own That Get Plugged In, did you know that my MacBook Pro is not 802.11n compatible? Apparently I am one Intel Core short of a Duo. I found this out yesterday when FedEx delivered my new Airport Extreme, and while it's nice and I'm digging my new networked hard drive, it's less of an Airport Extreme and more of an Airport Pretty Good. However! Last night BK suggested that we sell my mother-in-law my current year-old laptop and get me a new one. I don't have to tell you I'm liking that plan. We'll see just how thrifty the in-laws want to be about their laptop purchase, but a well-taken-care-of $2000 laptop with a $350 extended warranty and hundreds of dollars of software pre-installed all for the low, low price of $1000? Who could say no?

Lastly, I've somehow miraculously managed not to infect anyone with my latest mucous-fest: not Tootie, not the baby, and not BK. In all fairness, BK is much too busy galavanting about the country staying at the Four Seasons ("Every other hotel in Austin was completely booked!"), so he's not home frequently enough to get sneezed on. As for the baby, I attribute this particular bullet-dodging to obsessive handwashing and, of course, his cast-iron Slavic constitution. Duh.

Are you telling me that the attractive British man on the television lied about the amazing sucking powers of the Dyson? SAY IT AIN'T SO.
