Elmo's Potty Time

My coworker loaned me a DVD called Elmo's Potty Time. This DVD is supposed to help potty train Arnold. There is another DVD called Go Potty Go, which is about a panda going to potty. Go Potty Go is supposed to be more effective than Elmo's Potty Time, but we're willing to try both at this point.

We have moved into the Sam's Club Building. It's very pretty. Everything is ergonomic. We can use dry erase marker on our windows. The carpet looks very dotcomish. We have a huge cafe that serves a lot of varieties of good food now. We even have windows and balconies. It's a huge improvement from our warehouse-like building before.

I have to commute a bit longer to work though, but that's all right since I've been working from 7 am to 8 pm this week. Traffic is really not that bad at these odd hours, but Biajee had to take care of making dinner.

Arthur had 2 loose bowel movements at school today. We need to feed him starch and banana for dinner only. If he has another loose bowel movement, the school will have to send him home. Fortunately, we're almost at the end of the day and the opportunity of that is miniscule.

冰冷的阿肯色

我们终于深切地体会到阿肯色荸荠科罗拉多来，气候要恶劣很多。这个星期阿肯色连下几场雪，气温降到华氏零度，当地学校和健身房关门好几天，给我们的生活和工作造成很多不便。

Biajee过生日我们去骨鱼烧烤屋吃了很多海鲜，当然是在华氏十度左右的低温下出门，还带着两位小少爷。幸亏菜做得很好吃，还算值得出门一游。我在一月五日早上五点多时试图给儿子们注册游泳课失败，真正的注册始于一月四日早上五点，而且所有课程在一个小时之内全部满员，只好等下一学期了。好在游泳课学期是十周一循环，所以三月底四月初的时候可以再试。

经验教训是一定要在课程开始注册的第一天早上五点钟打电话，否则将痛失荆州。我的同事大大抱怨说这里的人简直是法西斯，非要逼大家早起。怎么办？只好入乡随俗。下一轮游泳课我们一定得注册上。小小体育馆的课程下个星期就结束了，我不打算再给孩子们继续上体操课，因为时间有可能与未来的游泳课冲突。体操的一学期从1月18日到5月29日，还有可能与星期六早会撞车，所以由我们带孩子们游泳比较好。

阿肯色人对雪是很惧怕的，因为这里没有铲雪设施，下过雪之后路面就结冰，导致开车很危险，使大家有借口在家工作。我也只好装得很害怕的样子啊，好象每天出生入死开车上班似的，非常有趣。不过前几天我们小区结的冰完全可以开溜冰场了。今天家门口的世界体育馆的儿童乐园发大水了，我们只好去J街的体育馆，学习了桑巴舞。Biajee跳得很认真。不过好像跳桑巴舞需要身材胖，否则不好看。
