Good week for weight loss. That's nice because I have some upcoming danger spots, like a business trip out of town and a bachelor party in Key West. I'm happy to report that my jowls are gone. I was developing some very impressive basset-hound type flaps on my face and I think they've completely disappeared. (I wasn't sure if it was my weight or aging, so this is a nice surprise).

In other news, still waiting on the birth of the Undaground nephew in New Jersey. I think yesterday was the actual due date, so he's late (which makes me believe he takes after his father).

The Undaling is obsessing over Elmo these days. Elmo's cool, and I can accept that. I'm so happy it wasn't Barney. We've done our best to shield him from that purple freak. He's still cruising furniture and I think he'll take his first steps sometime in the next month. No pressure, son. Honestly.

He's also experimenting a lot with language. He has his own words for cat, dog, monkey (Bob), and Moooooooo. Dada is still his favorite word, but Mama is his favorite person.
