Couple of quick things I wanted to mention on here. First, and most important of all, is the arrival on planet Earth of the very first Shades of Caruso baby! I try not to use this blog as a place to talk about personal real life things (except for a few exceptions which I kinda regret), but how could I not talk about this? It’s extremely exciting.

Sometime SoC contributor Masticator (now renamed masticateur as a consequence of the Great WordPress Migration of the other week) and the lovely Masticatrix have announced the birth of baby Alice on Tuesday night. There were many details given to me by masticateur but I sadly didn’t take them all in with 100% certainty as I was too busy going “ZOMG” and “XOMG” and “¬~^^^G|!!”, so please forgive the dearth of information. Masticateur did say Alice was the best baby ever, and I believe he was telling the truth.

My best wishes — and those of daisyhellcakes (the SoC Blogger Formerly Known As Canyon) — go to NewMom, NewDad, and NewPersonAlice. We can’t wait to meet her, and teach her how to play Rock Band.
