When nerds have babies...

Does anybody else think the name 'Anomaly' would be a awesome baby name?
At 3 months-old, Eloise is already pushing 15 lbs, which is about the same as her 5 or 6 month-old strictly breast-fed counterparts.
She wears most clothing items only once as she has trouble fitting into the same stuff week to week. She's already wearing 6 month sized stuff (although sizing is rather arbitrary between brands)
But I digress. The interesting part of what I'm getting at is my suspicion that my baby has super-powers.

Well, maybe not super-powers as such — but that perhaps she suckles from a source of supernatural life-giving power.
It is my distinct suspicion that Lindsay's breastmilk is something akin to the ent-draught described by Tolkien in the forests of Fangorn.

The Wikipedia Middle Earth List Of Food and Drink describes ent-draught thusly:

...an extremely invigorating drink of the Ents, brewed from the waters of the mountain springs on Methedras. These springs were the source of the river Entwash and the water had special properties. When Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took drank from the Entwash and bathed their feet they felt refreshed and their wounds were healed. When Treebeard brought Merry and Pippin to his home he gave them each a bowl of Ent-draught from a stone jar. The Hobbits found that it was similar to the water they had drunk from the Entwash, but it was even more invigorating. They felt its power coursing through their limbs and it felt like the hair on their heads was curling and growing. There was a taste or scent like a breeze from the woods. The next morning, Treebeard gave the Hobbits an Ent-draught from a different jar. This one was more filling and had an earthier, richer taste. So invigorating was the drink that the Hobbits actually grew taller after drinking it. Their exact height is not recorded, but it is implied that they surpassed Bandobras Took in height, him being the tallest hobbit in record up to that point, being four feet, five inches tall.

I haven't yet built the courage to test the breastmilk myself, as I find the very idea repugnant.
I love that word. Repugnant.
It just sounds so pissy.


Speaking of magical fluids I've been intrigued by the concept of 'sizzurp' since rapper T.I. got busted with the purple drank in his car.
While I would assume that codeine cough syrup, Sprite and Jolly Ranchers would be something that hobos or 13 year-olds would drink to get high, T.I. has given the sizzurp all sorts of cred.
I'm off to the pharmacy!
