Oh, and you know that date last night? It involved dressing up in a pretty dress (ref. conversation with ita last week about same), a delicious meal, a bottle of wine, and Serenity (ref. FINALLY!). It was a very good night.
That sounds loverly.
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Just came back from the Wallace & Gromit movie, which made me smile until my face hurt. I was also entertained by a Small Child on the way out who was happily saying "Cheese, Gromit!" every once in a while.

See, that picture of Maher inclines me to give him his sippy cup of juice and blanky and go take your nap already. I have too strong associations of thumbsucking with childhood for it to be remotely a ...hithery thing. My little quirk.
Glad the date night went well, Burrell.
The blue sudafed I took is either going to make me feel better, or much much worse.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Wallace & Gromit is next on the list for me. We want to take Franny, but figure we'll warm her up with "The Wrong Trousers" and "A Grand Day Out."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Thanks for the kind words, guys! I'm not familiar with any particular case, but in general freedom of religious expression is not freedom to harm others.

There were at least two little kids led out of the theatre due to being a little over-scared of the action, and a couple climbing into parental arms. Nothing really bad happens, there's just some apprehension.
(I don't think that needs to be white-fonted...?)

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
BON is female. BOB is male. If you have a cold, it could be easy to confuse them.
Wouldn't they both just be bod bod?

She'd be bod bod. He'd be Bod Bod. That's how you can tell them apart.

Hell, Hubby and I say that to each other occasionally. No Small Child required.

What is even happening?
IIRC, there have been multiple cases before the SCOTUS concerning whether the state can compel parents to give their children medical treatment that goes against their religious beliefs. Specifically, there was a case where Christian Science parents were charged with neglect because they refused to take their child to a doctor, and the child subsequently died.Found it. I was wrong. It was a bowel obstruction, not strep. The child, age two, was Robyn Twitchell. The parents were convincted of involuntary manslaughter. There's more information about the case, here: [link] (3rd entry), and here: [link] (more legal-ee).
