[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.
from last night:
Burrell, have you tried the flushable woven diaper liners with Isaac? They do seem to wick the moisture away from the skin pretty well, and would work with a diaper service diaper.
I hadn't tried them, but that sounds like the perfect solution. Danke!
So, those steroids? Still causing the eating thing. Just ate a pound of baby carrots. I *totally* didn't mean to!
vw loves carrots!
Well, I guess they were a good choice at least.
Wait, are they those Futurama brain worms where you suddenly get all smart and charming and get your life together?
Sorry. I thought they were sour gummy worms so I ate them all.
Everyone who thinks ND should post a picture of himself holding his Ovation (which also includes a glimpse of my darker hair next to the pretty statue) raise your hand!
Only one hand in the air, but it was waving through over 100 posts of catch-up. That should count extra, right?
Two neat things to share:
My dad is arriving today for a two week visit, and he's fun and great to have around so I'm thrilled!
There was much cleaning in preparation for said visit. One of the major cleaning things I did was spending ages getting cat hair off the couches. Ugh. I then covered the couches with cloths, because the couches themselves are kind of ugly. Then, I sat down on one of the couches and watched a little Buffy for a break (I'm working my way through again, and am now on S2). Rocky, the long-haired crazy oaf of a cat, immediately came over for pets, which is becoming fairly normal for him. Then he started rubbing all over my nice, clean couch! Then he went over and did the same on the other one. Then Freya, the little black cat, followed suit. Within 5 minutes, I had to de-hair the couches all over again!!! Ackpfth!
And responding to other news:
Juliana, it sounds like a rough day, but you can do it and soon you'll be in San Francisco where things will get better.
Crappy, non-birthday celebrating co-workers suck.
New Zealand!!
edited to clarify that not everything is about my dad and the annoying cute cat story.
Bobby brought home a permission slip to get a free FluMist. Any reason not to do this? I've never had a flu shot since the Swine Flu in the 60's. I'm rather needle phobic. If it were a shot I wouldn't have him do it, but the intranasal thing sounds doable. Anybody do this?
DH had a job interview yesterday, he feels he is overqualified, so that is likely a no go.
He took a test with the Post Office today to be a mechanic for them (I think). It will take at least 6 weeks for test results.
HE NEEDS A JOB NOW!!!
Sorry, had to vent. Please return to your seats and trays to their upright positions.

I've read that they're a good alternative to shots for older kids. If I had the choice of the nasal vaccine, I'd take it.
re: FluMist--whenever I go to the hospital, it's plastered with signs saying that if you've had the FluMist to wear a mask. Apparently there is a risk of infecting others. I'm not sure if that's only if you're dealing with people with challenged immune systems or not, ie, folks in hospitals, or what, so you might want to check that out.
