You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I love how Calvin's dad explains to him that color photography has always existed, and all photos are color. But years ago, reality was all black and white....

God thinks it looks really pretty because he's just watching it from a distance.

Yeah. At least Santa stalks us from up close.

And I wasn't meaning to pick on you, LJ. That song just struck me that way the first time I heard it, and that interpretation stuck with me.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Hee! I have no compunctions about karaoke! I always sing "Copacabana" and then usually something by Pat Benatar. Although one of my favorites was "Kiss Me Deadly" my Lita Ford. Wow, I was loaded and it was so fun to sing that!

Our wings are not tired.

Short of memorizing the almanac, it probably is the best way to cope with kids who ask too many questions.

I totally make shit up when answering the kids questions. I must do it too well because it only encourages them. The more outragious the answers the more frequent the questions.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Mine fourth. Short of memnorizing the almnac, it probably is the best way to cope with kids who ask too many questions.

Ah, see my dad would point something out to you and then start making shit up about it. He had my cousin convinced that tuna fish was possum in a can. Which is funny because my grandfather had the same cousin convinced that tamales were made from turtles. Poor Krissie has some food issues.

I learned at a very early age not to ask my dad, and just to go look it up myself.

i.e. we know the world is a shitty place, but God thinks it looks really pretty because he's just watching it from a distance.

Snerkity.

I know you weren't, so no apology needed.

I agree it's not a very pro-God song.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Don't weep, DX. I'm incredibly musically ignorant, even compared to people who are younger than I am.

No, it's a song about Bart Starr. When the Packers won the first two Super Bowls, his players would hold up their Super Bowl rings to him and say, "Ring-O! Ring-O" and then sing a song. The songs they'd sing became known as Ringo Starr song

I'm also incredibly football ignorant, and yet, I think you guys are all making this stuff up.

Annabel can now reach things on the dining nook table. I think she's growing in both actual height and ability to stretch out every day.

Help.

I may have to go with that plan for shelves at 5' and 6' all around every wall in the house for storage after all.
