Ginger--she is feeling MUCH better, thanks. Her old spark is finally back. I also saw at the reception my second boyfriend ever, who I remember as a great kisser and that we had long walks in the moonlight and talked for hours on the phone. He has been happily married for 18 years and is a very nice adult, although he, um, forgot we ever dated. FORGOT!
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
he, um, forgot we ever dated.
What kind of insane wacko could ever forget dating Robin???

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I'm with ChiKat on that one. How could anyone forget Robin?
Her old spark is finally back.
I have felt much better for some time, but I don't seem to have the stamina I did before all this started. Tell her not to expect too much of herself.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yay for Robin and Robin's mom!
Happy Birthday, ita!
You guys mentioned all the good kids' books. Any and all of them are great, and still fun to read, either to a littlie, or just as a guilty pleasure for oneself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yay for your mom, Robin! That old flame must have just blocked it out, so he would be able to move on.
OOH! FROG AND TOAD ARE FRIENDS!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Has anyone mentioned Moon Stars Frogs and Friends? (this is how our story ends...)

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I love Little Gorilla [link] I also bought the baby faces book for my niece.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Yes: steal him and see to it that he's raised among people who regard reading as a good thing.
Oh she loves reading to him. They just had several horrendous house repairs including $900 for a new boiler, (and the basement flooded) so anything that isn't food, shelter, diapers, and gerber sweet potatoes is an extravagance.
So the books and the Superman costumes are up to Auntie, and Grammie buys the Osh Kosh overalls.

I also bought this FRIGGING ADORABLE Hello Kitty baby book [link] I may have to buy a copy for myself, it's so cute.

One of the professors DH works with was on vacation on Phuket with the tsunami struck. Since he's a doctor and public health specialist, he pitched in and did what he could. His account is here: [link]
