Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.  

[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.

Trust my rage

{{{Aimee}}} I'm so sorry about your grandfather but I'm also really happy you made it there to be with him. Much peace~ma to you and your family.

Not Plei, but we are doing simple signs with Mal (mother, father, kitty, water, milk, etc). Maybe he'll start signing back in a bit. He's using Mal-words for those things now.

That's so cool. One of the things I've noticed about being home with Ellie is that I'm looking for stuff to *do* with her. I mean, I am capable of leaving her alone, and I do let her do her own thing, but I have more fun if I have some sort of goal in mind. I think flea is going to give me some books on baby signing - double yay there because it means I don't have to buy them. Also, I love the idea of Squeakaboo Test Pilot.

Gud, those are some cute kiddos. Such smiles! And doggies!

{{Aimee}} All the best to you and your family. I'm glad you're there with the people who love you and who loved your grandfather.

Someone just reminded me of an 8:30 meeting today. Blerg. Here's hoping for free bagels.

Hugs and hairpats to Aimee ... and everyone else who needs them.

Raq, if you're interested in making something for Mal's Christmas stocking, I'm planning a trip to a craft store (A.C. Moore) and G Street Fabrics this weekend - want me to look for something for you? If so, let me know - profile addy's good.

ETA - sj, another source might be a museum shop - I've seen lovely ornaments and such in the (innumerable) catalogues I get.

move out and draw fire

Stephanie, one of my friends who signs is using Signing Time with his son, and of all the things he's tried, he's gotten the best results with it. [link]

Thanks Toddson! I think I will do that, as I'm not finding anything online. I made the rest of our stockings, so I should make Mal's too.

(heading to look at Gud's photos)

Raq, send me a list. I plan to make the trip Saturday, so let me know by Friday (no Internet at home ... sigh ... so I only have access during office hours). Also where to send stuff.
