It was actually already on my recommended list, I discover. I got a used copy for 4 bucks, too.
Hey, mebbe I get to one month with no smokey treats and I finally get myself a tiara.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

"Your Clitoria as Disneyland"
Didn't John Mayer already do that song?
"Clitoria" made me think, "I should have more than one?"

Now tagless for your comfort.
That will be the very next book I buy.
I realized I hadn't done any laundry since we got back from our trip. The boy is completely out of pajamas and will be sleeping in his shorts and t-shirt He's already more like me than I imagined he'd be. Only I need to hogtie him so I can cut those bangs of his.
I have no s'mores. But I do have 'Nilla wafers. Dunking them in milk.

Good luck, Lilty!
Now that I have a digital camera, I took all these pictures, and now I have to go through and play with them, and crop them and red-eye them and name them and so on...

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
So, um, I think I'm going to try to not smoke tommorrow. Or the day after that. And so on. I have three ciggies left, which I'll smoke tonight, then tommorrow put on one of these patch thingies I've got.
{{Lilty}} Go you, and good luck.

What is even happening?
I realized I hadn't done any laundry since we got back from our trip. The boy is completely out of pajamas and will be sleeping in his shorts and t-shirt He's already more like me than I imagined he'd be. Only I need to hogtie him so I can cut those bangs of his.Oh, he's so beautiful.
When my kids were about that age, I'd trim their hair while they were in either the bath, or the high chair. It wasn't easy, though. At some point, you're going to want to take him for haircuts, so he'll get used to it. Generally, little girls are better than little boys about haircuts. Per my hairdresser, little boys often cry. Ben did. Chris sat as still as a statue until he was about 2. They couldn't get over it. Then one time it freaked him out--I think maybe it was the electric clippers that bothered him, and it took almost two years to get him over it, because that's how Chris is. Oy.
I finally had to stop taking him to my place, because I wasn't strong enough to hold him still on my lap. Scott took him to the barber. One time, they refused to cut his hair. Chris's reaction was extreme, though. He finally turned the corner when he was about 4. Ben was having his haircut first, so that Chris could get used to it (part of the problem for Chris was that we waited too long between cuts, and it was almost a brand new horror for him, each time), and Chris walked around the barber shop, asking all the men, "Are you gonna get beautiful?" and when they were done, he'd say, "Oh, you're all beautiful, now."

Trust my rage
Timelies, all!
I'm back on the east coast. It's good to be home, even though it was great to see my family and so many friends.
Cindy, I love the haircutting story. I think I have always liked getting my haircut, but as you said, maybe girls are easier than boys. I was always scared of the clippers but since I never needed them, it didn't really upset me.
