infant car seat. check. swing and bouncy seat. check, check. baby bathtub. check. yes, our apartment looks different now. the concept that another human being will be joining our life (and our shared square footage) becomes more and more real with every item that enters the door. a physical reminder that she (yes, she!) will be here soon.

saw sandra bernhardt this past weekend (thanks again boys!). admittedly, i'm very late to the party that is sandra b, so my revelations are sure to seem old to most of you and i've heard much buzz that she is "past her prime", whatever that means. but i enjoyed her bizarre command of the stage immensely. she's so accessible i felt as if she was going to sit down for an informal Q&A afterwards and share a few drinks and quips with those of us who are cool enough. not that I am, but I fantasize that I am. wish her, her GF and her daughter would come over for brunch. along with daniel vosovic.

we're still discussing names but i can tell you the ones that have been vetoed:
twyla (one of my favorites)
gilda
zoe
marlo
zelda
rhoda
maisie
avery
auden

it's been a house of men for many years now. how refreshing that a girl is moving in! our best wishes to all moms out there. happy mother's day, a bit belated.
