I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!  

[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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Yeah, don't need to say it twice.

Now tagless for your comfort.

But, you don't really need a full sized crib for awhile - you could use a bassinet.

We didn't use ours regularly until O was 9 months old. He slept better in his bouncy seat than anywhere else (which is why I bought two of them).

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

But, you don't really need a full sized crib for awhile - you could use a bassinet.

Even that would be pushing it. It's a REALLY small bedroom. Do they make underbed storage bassinets? 'Cause we might have room for that...

(I don't know why I'm obsessing about this today, since I'm not even pregnant yet. It just seems like it can't POSSIBLY be September, and if the summer went by this fast, then so will next year, and before we know it we'll be planning a family for real and STILL have no money to move with.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

(I'm useless on the subject of furniture, but still squeeing internally at the thought of future moonbonebabies)

Heh. I have a family and still no money to move with.

Speaking of, our household is 2 days away from being larger by one. My sister is 14 hours outside of Denver!

So that will put the count at:

3 adults
1 baby
2 cats
1 dog
1 bedroom

I have paid my library fines! /good citizen

It's gorgeous out. We're going for a bike ride after a nap.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Gronk.

I made tea. It's not coffee. I wish I had coffee too.

It's all I got right now.

I just received an advance copy of "Paint it Black: A Guide to Gothic Homemaking" by Voltaire. Were I a Goth, I would be referring to this book constantly. It's full of humorous, yet practical advice. A sample:

... In my opinion, the best base color for a soon-to-be-Goth room is red. But stay away from primary red. You want your room to look romantic and hot -- as in sultry -- not like a fire engine. Steer towards secondary shades of red, like crimson or burgundy. Also, red paint names that bear an Oriental title tend to work nicely.
Resist the tempation to paint the walls black! I can tell you from experience that if you are starting with a smallish room, painting the walls black will make the room look even smaller. Furthermore, it will eventually depress youto a point far beyond the usual "I'm so Goth I'm dead... aren't I wonderfully mysterious?" to a stage where you will actually need to seek serious and immediate professional attention.

Jilli will either be very jealous of me, or she will say that she reviewed the galleys months ago....

move out and draw fire

Jess, you could rig a basket for the baby suspended from the ceiling on pulleys. Or, if you have a bathtub, just store the baby there with padding. Or maybe get one of those birdboxes that you can attach to your window.

OK, not terribly helpful.
