You guys know I love me some Dooce, what with dragging myself out of my deathbed sickbed to go to her book signing and all, and the reading of her blog for years and the fact that I point to her as one of my biggest inspirations.

But let the record show I decided on my middle name before she named her new baby! LET IT SHOW!

(And, of course, congratulations to the Armstrongs on Marlo!)

On Saturday night Carissa and I stayed in, watched SNL and picked out WordPress themes for her new blog. It was one of the most perfect Saturday nights ever. I seriously love my friends.

We also killed nearly a bottle of Love My Goat from Bully Hill Vineyards (it’s awesome if you like a sweet red “girl wine”), did an interview for Interviews with Friends (wait until you hear who she ran into with her bicycle!) and watched, but did not actually DO, some of the belly dancing workout DVDs she brought over while we were flopped on the couch full of ordered-in Indian food. It was, we figured, close enough.

Go say hello!
