I'm giving blood today.
I hope I don't throw up.
That's not what making out sounds like -- unless I'm doing it wrong?

Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I know, Cindy. I'm not loaning out anything that has sentimental value. I'm assuming some of it will fall apart or get lost or otherwise not be returnable.

What is even happening?
Okay, Susan. I just figured if you were bothering to mark them, you planned on getting them back.
There were a few items friends and family offered to lend us, that they wanted back, afterwards. I just politely refused. I think I am probably an oddball about this, both ways (as a giver and a recipient). Take-backs stress me out.

If I only had a brain...
Sharpies on the tags always worked well for me. Sharpie sells a laundry marker, but I couldn't see any way it was different from a regular marker.
Amoxicillin stains, however? No way to remove.

Okay, Susan. I just figured if you were bothering to mark them, you planned on getting them back.
I just thought this was the normal way to do it, since my neighbor has always marked the stuff she's loaned us, and every time Annabel outgrows a size, I go through the old stuff before I box it away so I can give it back.
Too, the ruling fear of my life these days is birth control failure. If I could know for sure that there was no way we'd have another kid until our finances are in perfect order, I might think of things differently. As is, I'm like, "While I'm not attached to any one piece of clothing, if I mark it, I'll get most of it back, so if I were to accidentaly get pregnant, at least I'd be spared the expense of a whole new baby wardrobe."

Well, it's not like there's much in the way of androgynous baby clothes to be found.
Another girl would definitely be easier on the pocketbook, at least in the short term.

Yeah there was PINK IM A GIRL and BLUE IM A BOY. Even the green or yellow stuff was boyish or girly.

Yep. One of the fun parts about Annabel getting older is having an easier time finding bright and dark colors for her, but it's still a choice of GIRL GIRL GIRL or baby drag 90% of the time.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Best of luck to Robin's fam.

I remember someone saying they just bought all white and dyed as they saw fit. It sounds like a reasonable thing to do, but I may be a little over-invested in my "no pastels" edict.
Um, not that I am pregnant or planning to be within the next year-plus. IJS.
