Yes, as reported on the other site, the new school year has started. Actually, as I teacher, I had to start last Friday (Aug. 18), but today was the first day for students.
It was a fun day, but man am I tired now!

Baseball update: MN Twins make ground in AL Wildcard race. Woo hoo!!!! Can the twins make the playoffs. Personally, I don't think so, although I would love to see it happen. With Liriano out, I don't know if the starting rotation will be able to keep pace with the White Sox (if they even can hold together themselves.) Radke has basically got a bum throwing arm, Santana apparently has blisters on the throwing hand, who knows what is going on with Silva, etc. If they start gettting too banged up, I would hope they don't do something stupid just to make the wild card.

Baby Update: I purchased glacierbaby's first big items last thursday (yup, the day before school started). I purchased the crib, changing table, and stroller/car seat. Plus, I got them all put together on the same day. I must say, putting the stroller together was more difficult than I had originally thought it would be. The easiest to put together was the crib. Anyway, there is now a layer of aluminum foil on the crib mattress (in the crib). I had read somewhere that the foil is a pretty good deterent for cats. The jump in, but don't like the sound/texture/etc. of the foil and never jump in again. Who knows if it works?

My mom tried the aluminum foil thing in her houseplants with our cat. Results were mixed, to be honest, because the cat learned to pull out the aluminum foil before digging around.
But maybe it will work on a bigger surface like a matress. Let us know how the experiment works out!
