The Chinese grew on me over time. Rather like Frell! or Frak! in other series, except more phases to learn.

Hi! Busy girl as usual. {{all}}

Happy Birthday, Eddie! Also, I think I missed Nova Gris's birthday yesterday, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I tend to post my thoughts in Natter and my feelings in Bitches (but as Cindy implied, nothing's exlcusive). Also, although this is probably not relaly true, I tend to think of Bitches as the early morning crew and Natter as the night time crew.

Of course, I was more pissed at a perfectly good waste of batteries

I thought it had died though. It's the Lazarus vibe. Or scored some Viagra maybe.

I can only imagine going "What on earth are my neighbors doing that sounds like a vibrator??".

Exactly this. I even asked the cats (or talked to myself, whichever sounds less crazy) a few times.

The embarressment was mostly how long it took me to figure out what happened/that sound was. I think the vacuum must have performed its own sort of percusive maintenance when I vacuumed under the bed.

Today was the day my doula has a picnic where she invites all current and former clients. It was a lot of fun to see all these babies and other pregnant women. I mentioned that a friend had just had a baby recently and that she jokingly referred to her as a "breast barnacle." Everyone thought it was the funniest and most accurate thing they had ever heard. Of course, I gave all the credit to Plei.

There was an Annabelle along with Annabel in the toddler nursery today. At least this is the only other one we've met--not like the gaggle of Zachs and Jacks in the male portion of her age cohort. And I still like our spelling better. It's older-school.

My take on Natter v. Bitches? I go to Natter if I have a question about fighting or horses for my novel. I go to Bitches if I've found some gorgeous knicknack related to my novel that I just have to show someone and grump about being too poor to buy it.

Maybe it was flirting with you, Cass.

sj, the sun finally came out, here. I hope it's out in your area too, and that you keep feeling better.

Cass, that's too funny.

We had the same amount of French in high school. I'd respond in Spanish, which I did take, iffn I could remember any of it.

Yo tambien y no hablo español bien. Mas despacio, por favor. Quiero una siesta. Quiero cerveza. Quiero una vacaciones.

As he was putting it together, he sang the following song, inspired by a BTVS-themed fake driver's license for Spike that Cindy sent him long ago and which is one of his greatest treasures:

Everybody's ni-ice to-oo Mister Spi-ike
Everybody likes me 'cause I'm Mister Spi-ike
Everybody's happy liking Mister 'Spi-ike

♥ Emmett is the coolest.
