From ChimpanA to ChimpanZ. 4-27-12


I’ve been wanting to use that line for a while. It’s from Troy McClure’s musical version of Planet of the Apes, complete with the classic “You’ll never make a monkey out of me!” (or is it ‘you really made a monkey out of me’?). I miss Phil Hartman. Seeing all the SNL folks last night on 30 Rock reminded me. But the point of the title is that I’ve run the gamut with online purchases. Along with Troy McClure, I’m also lamenting the end of my free trial of Amazon Prime. I’ve been abusing it, like an addiction. It’s really healthier that it’s over.

This morning, I decided that Boop was severely deprived because she didn’t have leg warmers. I had to stock up since summer is coming. (?) Well, it’s still a bit cool still, and she will be in air conditioning all day. They’re actually quite nice—makes it easier to change diapers. I even got little boy ones with ninjas on them (those will probably be a gift). They should last her into the winter. She’s not overly chunky; so they could last her up to a few years.
Legwarmers--almost as big as her

They fit! (sort of...)

I also bought a jumbo bottle of brewer’s yeast… It’s really hard to tell much on my little netbook. Everything looks small. And then more stuff to help with nursing—fenugreek, moringa tea… Medela supplies for my pump and bottles. And then cloth diapering stuff—covers, wet diaper bags… You get the idea. It’s pretty hard to find some of these things in town. So, I’ve been a bit out of control with online purchases. It’s just a bit too easy, and I’m glad I’m able to cut myself off.
