Yesterday, Liza and I opened a package from Nate. A stylish set of baby clothing gifted to you know who. It was like going through my wardrobe but in infant sizing. My first words to him about it this morning were, “how dare you gift the greatest jacket on earth to a fucking baby who’s going to vomit all over it!? Wtf is wrong with you?” This was between discussions around some CSS changes to make to this site. (I wanted the tags and category fields hidden. They are now.)

About the jacket, seeing is believing. And see it you will, obviously. I’m sure there’ll be many a question asked about “where did you get this? It’s so cute” and so on. It’s bound to show up in a picture or two. Nate’s words were, “I got the jacket in a size 2 I think, so he gets more use out of it and can wear it while walking around and get compliments and all that”. Needless to say, your mother and I loved the gift and were extremely grateful.

Also, this tip of his made me laugh. I haven’t been through your wardrobe but I’m sure you have some outfits with buttons…

Nate: Those Wondersuits are the best. Seriously recommend baby clothes that come with a single zip. Makes changing so much easier. If you see buttons, avoid lol

Me:
at least i think the messaging is consistent
1. you wont sleep for shit
2. fuck buttons get zips. seriously, fuck buttons
3. dont kill the little shit

And that was yesterday’s highlight. I also mounted the baby cam to your crib but that’s trivial at this point. Liza sent some demo pictures to her parents who had basically never seen such “hi-tech”. The generational gap comes to the forefront once again. It seems like an obvious thing to have in today’s world but for older folks (and most of present-day African countries), these sorts of gadgets are unheard of.

Your mother is meeting up with Rozalia this morning for breakfast at HIDE. She has her usual appointment with Dr Erskine thereafter. I’m going to drop her off at the station at about 8:15. I actually need to get moving. Wez is coming round to finish the wardrobe downstairs. He should be here any minute now.
