In case you kids didn't know, Sally's now an aunt. Niece Lila is a trip -- totally looks like my grandmother Rose and eats like my brother. So, so cute. Anyway, here's a little smidge of what's going down in the 4 month old's life:

Buddy: One of my recruiters just showed me a candidate who lives in....get this..... Budd Lake, NJ.
Sally: Home of cars at the bottom of the lake [ed: obscure reference to Anthony La Paglia movie: ‘29th Street’]
Buddy: hehehehehehe
Sally: How's that wee one? Getting bigger, I hear?
Buddy: Good. Slept 7 hours straight last night.....too bad it was from 7 to 2.
Sally: ha ha ha!.
Buddy: She's such a pain in the ass though. She'll sleep soundly if she's swaddled, but she's like Doug Fucking Henning. I'm going to have to get a straight jacket.
Sally: It’s like a library here and I just burst out laughing like a psychopath.
Sally: Check it out: her rap name should be ‘Lil Houdini’.
Buddy: Really. Schmoopie, who has had nothing but sweet things to say and always looks cross at me for making silly comments came down[stairs] in a huff saying "what a pain in the ass".
Sally: She's just taking a disco nap.
Sally: Let's get the party started!
Buddy: The funniest though was yesterday when I had her alone. She went totally ballistic right before I fed her and was insane. Maggie was shaking like a dog shitting bones, and wouldn't stop. It's like having someone with post traumatic stress syndrome living at home. You would think she was in Iraq, for christ’s sake.
Sally: LOLZ!!11!!1!!!!.
Sally: That dog kills me. She's so weird. Speaking of, bring her down for my shower.
Buddy: We will. Seriously though. I was praying Schmoop didn't come home. She always knows when I throw a fit by the dogs reaction, and I swear to god I did nothing [this time].
Sally: I think she'll be a happier dog when Lila gets older. This is just too much for the princess.
