I don’t think they have anything like shrinky dinks here. How does it work? what do you make with it? Five days overdue by now. ;)

Hope you get your baby soon!
Shrinky dinks are a lot of fun – you start with a sheet of paper-like plastic that you color with colored pencils, then you stick it in the oven and it shrinks down to maybe a tenth of the original size (and thicker). Very cool!

Hope it was fun! I have a Twitter account, but I don’t use it. Twitter gives me a headache! I think I’m too old for it!!!!!!!!!! I get super annoyed with those #### things all over the place with clever little things following them — how’s that for sounding old and crotchety? Ha ha! No offense to all of my tweeting friends!

The only way to survive a twitter party is to use an app like TweetChat – and it still gets pretty crazy :)
