Kara's first day of school, we hung out in her classroom for about an hour while she studiously ignored us, and then we told the teacher we guessed we'd leave, since she was doing so well. The teacher said that was fine; some kids don't need the hand-holding. So I went and told Kara that it was time for us to go. "OH NO!" she shouted. "I just got here!" When I explained that I meant Mommy and Daddy were going she said, "Oh, okay." and walked off.
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh. And awwww.

>cookbook team, i sent in a recipe several days ago, but I never got a confirmation e-mail or anything like that. Did you get my recipe?We did get it. I’m sorry you didn’t get a confirmation e-mail.
Stephanie, thanks! We got the recipe, and it looks delish!
And Raq answers much faster than I do!
Job~ma to Anne and Trudy!
{{{{{Polgara and Sister}}}}} I have no words. I am so very, very sorry.
Steph, I’m so glad your dad is ok.
Kara is SUCH a cutie!
Oh, and Aidan in his pizza is just adorable!
Pardon me while I sniffle.
Me too!
I have had a bio-filled day. I’m exhausted. Is it bedtime yet?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Glad your father's doing OK, Steph.
Emmet's story is why I don't let kids get away with even that punch-to-the-sholder greeting in the library. It can escalte or change way too fast.
Yeah, this happened once with the kids I was teaching this summer. Started as playing, quickly became actual fighting.

Steph, I love that picture. Your bro and his wife look so happy (and relieved).

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'd leave it, Windsparrow, but I'm reckless about such things.

That picture of gap-toothed Kara only made me think "Where have I seen that smile before . . . oh, yes, Jaws was on last week."

Oh, I forgot to comment on the Emmet situation... I think because it caused unfortunate flashbacks. I'm glad you were there for him, Hec. I hope it doesn't happen again.

I have 223 pages to read before 4:30pm tomorrow. How likely is this to actually happen?

Cookbookies, did you happen to snag the peach salsa recipe I posted?
And, umm, do any of you remember where I posted it? I need to archive it locally, and it only exists here, drat it.
