Now on ScienceBlogs: Antibiotic Resistance and the House and Senate Healthcare Bills
The Egyptian goddess Isis was celebrated as the ideal wife and mother. The blogger known as Dr. Isis has some fancy-sounding degrees and is a physiologist at a major research university working on some terribly impressive stuff. She blogs about balancing her research career with the demands of raising small children, how to succeed as a woman in academia, and anything else she finds interesting. Also, she blogs about shoes. In fact, she blogs a lot about shoes.
...And behold, he raised the motherfucking Jameson on high as Isis bedecked her feet in glory, and the masses were sated. -- The Holy Gospel According to PhysioProf

Dr. Isis just walked in the door and has 14 minutes to go from work clothes to total hotness for Date Night with Mr. Isis.
Can she do it?
As I typed this last bit from our bedroom, and Mr. Isis sat with the Isis brood while they ate dinner, I heard him exclaim, "No, no, no! Peas do not go up your nose."

I think you will find that peas actually do go up your nose...it's the return trip that's the problem.

Yes, they do PhysioProf. I think there is nothing more wonderful than to be able to spend an evening with someone you love.

Peas DO go up your nose...but they probably shouldn't.
Similar funny statement of fact given to a small child:
"No, we do NOT wee in the shower!"
Overheard while waking up in the guest bedroom of friend's house while he got the kids ready for school in the bathroom next door.
Actually it's not entirely true though. If I'm dragging myself out of bed after
Just read your next post - glad you had a fun date!

Wut?

Dr. Isis, as she felt her feet becoming suddently warm, has also told Little Isis that the shower is not the place for pee pee. It's unfortunately that she has also had to tell Mr. Isis the same thing.
HA HA HA HA HA

Gah! Something weird happened to my comment. It was supposed to go like this:

OK WTF!?!?! Apparently I cannot use the "less than" symbol without deleting a bunch of text
Actually it's not entirely true though. If I'm dragging myself out of bed after "less than" 4 hours of sleep and I forget to wee BEFORE standing under the streaming warm shower...lets just say that sometimes we DO wee in the shower...but we probably shouldn't. I'm not proud of it.
AA out!
