The baby has taken to getting hiccups fairly regularly now. I knew that would happen, but I expected it to be more of a whole stomach sensation, when in fact it's like a little twitch low in the abdomen. It's fun knowing where his little head is. I'm getting poked and kicked quite a bit, but don't usually have a reference point for what body part might be doing the jabbing. But now I'm pretty sure it's his wiggly legs.

Our car's air conditioning has been slowly dying since last summer. We brought it in to be checked out and the diagnosis is not good. Apparently there are several leaks and some assorted other things that would take some $700 to straighten out. It's a decent car for a 1990 Buick, but there's no way pouring in that much money to revamp the air conditioning would be a wise investment. I'm a little scared of the summer now. I think I will have to purchase one of those handheld electric fan things for emergencies. Like when it's summer and I have to get in the car.

Even though the serious heat hasn't set in yet, my mind is already in some summer lethargy. I'm perfectly content to lie around with my root beer floats or root beer popcicle and read US Weekly with the first season of Human Giant going on in the background. In fact, I'm kinda sad we're out of root beer popcicles and US Weekly.

The Flobots, they continued their ascent into fame as they appeared on Leno.
