[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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"I Started a Joke," that song by the Bee Gees? It's about the life and death of Jesus Christ. And holy crap is it bitter.

Heh. That's why Penn and Teller used it to close out their first movie.

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you

It's so bitter, the Smiths should have covered it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I broke down and bought two Bravado nursing bras today at the Overpriced Maternity Store. They appear to be perfectly comfortable, so I'll be seeking them on eBay.

My sister wore those too and she loved them. I found it a bit annoying to have to pull my bra over my head, so I went for ones with hooks instead. I think this time around I need to buy one more, but then I should be good. I think.

Oh, and I must remember to get your address at some point. That is if you want to be the recipient of some of Franny's newborn / 3 month clothes. I have tons and tons of baby clothes. Many will be suitable for the wee boyo, but not all.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

The new Playtex underwire alternative ones I got are the best ones I have. SOOO comfy. [link]

So no one freaked you out with stories of painfully clogged milk ducts caused by underwires? I have to admit I avoided getting an underwire nursing bra until Frances was older and my breasts had gone down a bit in size.

[eta: oh, the link makes it look like it isn't an actual underwire. So the stories got to you too I guess.]

I read about the clogged milk ducts with underwires, but, as with most things I read, I figured I try what I wanted and deal with the results later. And, I couldn't find any underwires that fit, really. I looked, but couldn't find any. I really only wanted them for work but these ones have wonderful support.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

That'd be keen!

At about two weeks after baby, I plan to go in and get a fitting so I can alternate, because I can imagine having to pull a bra over my head all the time will get old--the biggest reason for the Bravado was that the sizes overlap, so I didn't have to know anything exact.

Phooey, Aimee. That bra only goes up to a DD.

Dunno, but DD was my starting point, so something larger than that.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Annabel's party was fun. We had eight adults, counting us, and two other kids--an 18-month-old and a 2 1/2-year-old. Annabel still doesn't get the point of tearing into wrapping paper, but she loves her new giant legos and learning table and push toy that turns into a riding toy when her legs are longer. At one point, Annabel, Alexandra, and Sara all stood around the learning table looking like so many evil geniuses with a superweapon. I hope the pictures turn out.

Our girl isn't wild about chocolate cake, leading me to wonder if she really is my daughter, strong physical resemblance notwithstanding.
