It was pretty much a lot of "I freaked reading about my nanny's life because it made me worry that I might pause to think about my own life choices and that scares me. Also I'm maybe not as cool as her." I mean, there were a few things that weren't on that level, but really I think that was the heart of the problem.

Sienna's still engaged only.
The wife is all "Oh my god! My nanny has a life! My nanny has opinions of me! My nanny is talking about me all the time on the web!"
To which I'd reply "Calm down. Yes. Yes. No, not really." What was there for her to be bothered by other than one citation that the nanny was having a bad workweek? Where the hell did the rest of the drama come from? The wife's head, as far as I can tell.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Also, fleas can jump multiple building stories, or so I've been told. you don't need an outdoor animal for it to get fleas, at least if you have open windows.
That is horrifying. I need to go buy duct tape to seal every opening.

If you don't have Aveeno around, Jesse, a baking soda and water footbath can help itching.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I use Benadryl cream AND pills for bug bites because I get welts the size of quarters.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I can't believe that in almost 100 posts on reading in dreams, nobody mentioned that episode of Batman (TAS) where he figures out it's a dream by opening a book.
(Ironically, I was unable to post this during the actual conversation because I was watching JLU.)
