GREETINGS, MINIONS!
I haven't done one of these "Hello!" posts in a while, so... HELLO! 8)
New people! Come say hi. Go forth and bacon all over the comments. Frolic among my other, more familiar minions (and then possibly run away scared, but then at least you can say you tried it. lol).
What's everyone up to today? What about this weekend? Do you like chocolate? What is your favoritest crazy fandom on Tumblr? Is there something for me to eat around here because holy crap I'm hungry. #thiscommentbroughttoyoubyADD
Tell me a little about yourselves. Nothing factual, obviously. I want to know what galaxies you've conquered and how many desserts you conjure out of magic for yourself on a daily basis. (What? I told you I was hungry.)
So, hi. How are you? :)

I posted about Kiera Wilmot earlier this week, but +Maggie Koerth-Baker provided updated information in a recent article. *TL;DR:* The felony charges against Kiera have been dropped!
I'm very happy to see that things are working out for Kiera, and with any luck, her love for science won't be diminished by this experience.

It occurred to me last night after the name post I did that as of tomorrow I have 9 weeks (assuming new baby doesn't come early) to get everything done around the house. 9 weeks! OMG. Where did the time go?
This includes major projects such as dismantling the office cabinets and desk, stripping wallpaper, painting, and fixing a shower leak (which involves tearing out part of the wall to see where the stupid leak is because it's not obvious when you look in the shower)... on top of other general clean-out-and-organize projects I'd wanted to get done.
And it all has to be done mostly on weekends, because weekday involvement is spotty at best.
HALP.

Dear Internets,
As-Yet-Unnamed Little Dude (aka, Boy #2) still does not have a name. In a few days I'll be 9 weeks out from the due date. No way is this kid popping out nameless.

All right, so I don't normally notify you guys twice in one day (or even twice in a month), but uh...
I gave in to curiosity and watched that episode of Kitchen Nightmares with Amy's Baking Company. (Mostly because Ned already started it before I walked in, so why not?)
There are no words you guys. None. I can't even.

Dis piktur, it expresses my feels.
But in case you want to read more, here are my full thoughts:
Composing a post from the Gmail window is funner. It has a bubble feel to it that I like a lot. Same with the notifications box.
My profile page? Kinda looks a little like Tumblr, which is not at all a bad thing. I has a lurve for it. (The massive profile picture is a different story... I mean, it was already huge, and now it's like o_O Honestly Google, if that thing gets any bigger it's going to project itself right out of my computer and take over my wall.)
Downside to checking out new profile page display: I rediscovered the mac and cheese gif from last week and now I want mac n cheese. Never mind that I just ate. I want it. https://plus.google.com/u/0/101453162215777563254/posts/apqExonjQ4i

Doctor Who, non-spoilery
Dear Neil Gaiman,
You can just go ahead and write all the rest of the Doctor Who episodes ever.
Signed,

(I just now got a chance to watch last week's episode. AND NOW THERE'S ONLY ONE MORE EPISODE FOR THIS SEASON AND THEN WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE 50TH AND THEN THERE WILL BE NO MORE NEW DOCTOR WHO FOR AN INDETERMINATE AMOUNT OF TIME. I hate you BBC / Moffat / Anyone else holding up the show. That is all.)

GOOD MORNING MY LITTLE PLUSBUGS
We are back from the Mother's Day weekend trip. There was much driving, which is why I disappeared for so long. Miss me? ;)
Crappy light-faded picture is crappy, but here is a quick selfie of me and the momma. Cute, no? I get all my silly from her. Also coming soon are baby belly pics with the sis (also preggers!), but since my phone was dead when they were taken I have to wait for someone to send them to me. Words cannot express how excited my mom was that both of her daughters came to see her on mother's day, and that both of us are pregnant at the same time. ^_^
SO, Plus, what did I miss over the weekend? I kind of skimmed my notifications, but I want the juicy stuff from you guys. What did all my little minions get up to the last few days?

Depression
I'm so glad to see that Hyperbole and a Half is writing again. The new post, up today, is particularly relatable, for me at least.
...my experiences slowly flattened and blended together until it became obvious that there's a huge difference between not giving a fuck and not being able to give a fuck. Cognitively, you might know that different things are happening to you, but they don't feel very different...
...And that's the most frustrating thing about depression. It isn't always something you can fight back against with hope. It isn't even something — it's nothing. And you can't combat nothing. You can't fill it up. You can't cover it. It's just there, pulling the meaning out of everything. That being the case, all the hopeful, proactive solutions start to sound completely insane in contrast to the scope of... more »

Here is the edited video of the Hangout with Jim Butcher.
We spend a half-hour discussing his Dresden Files series. I made it through most of the questions submitted by the community. If you have time to watch it, please feel free to let me know what you think.

It's thunderstorming outside. I don't think I can articulate the thrill and mood boost I get whenever we get a proper thunderstorm with actual rain. (None of this sprinkling crap that people call "rain" out here.)
It's different when it's a thunderstorm vs. a simple rain storm. Rain by itself I'll take it or leave it, but I never fail to get excited over a thunderstorm. They're just awesome :)

I'm wondering if there's a gluten free way to duplicate this flavor. I imagine I wouldn't have too much of a digestive upset with the original recipe since it's a marinade and I'm not drinking straight up beer... hmm.

Made two different kinds of brownies last night for the potluck today. The spicy ganache (second pic) had to wait until this morning since that batch of brownies came out late at night and I didn't have time to stay up and wait for them to cool.
First picture: http://www.annarbor.com/entertainment/food-drink/cinco-de-mayo-brownies/
Second picture (I turned off the lights for that picture so you could get a better idea of the actual color... with the light on it looked way lighter than it really was): http://outoftheboxbrownies.com/2012/05/03/cinco-de-mayo-brownie/
These are a complete experiment since I used two different gluten free flour mixes instead of regular wheat flour. Of course I forked a little corner piece off of each to taste test. The second mix (with the ganache) seems to be a better GF mix. Think that one is gonna be my keeper :)... more »

Due to scheduling conflicts at the office, we're having a Cinco de Mayo potluck a little late. I boldly announced that I would bring some kind of chocolate, and right now, I want brownies.
So of course I turned to the internets for some kind of unique brownie thing that none of my other coworkers have made before. Here's what I found:
