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.
Gronk.
So, umm, any tricks to get a kid to take a bottle at daycare? I mean, just because it's not fresh squeezed, doesn't mean you reject the stuff out of hand. Sheesh.
(I'm home today, and about to nap, because man, I am SO tired.)
It's 0/0 where we say, "No no no don't go there, that's the bad place!"
Doubledogdare you to write it up in story form for Anthropomorfic on LJ.
yay ! I hung all my clothes in the bedroom that have been need to be hung up for months.
In the process I think I have found 2, possible 3 outfits that do not need tights. which is good since mine seem to have vanished and I would rather wait 'til the end of the week to buy more.

The what now what? Ask me again after this week is over.
Okay, so I'm reading the letters back and forth from various people after Turing's death, and it's just so sad! They're making me quite teary -- all torn between unsurprised irritation at the press's "no troubles" line coming so soon after his prosecution and also shock because they thought he knew they'd support him no matter what... so sad.
Did you try that boobie bottle, Plei?
So you've got some nothing. You raise it to the power of nothing (or multiply it by nothing), effectively giving nothing even more nothing. Suddenly you've got something? Where did it come from!? Dear God, WHERE?
This is why I'm not a creationist, isn't it?
That sounds way more like the naturalist** argument to me. In the beginning there was no life at all, and all these lifeless things combined, at and under what just "happened" to be all the right conditions, and the precise moment, and then there was all kinds of life, that kept improving itself. And all of the conditions that never before had allowed for life, maintained to keep allowing for life.
Confusing!Boy (remember him?)
Hate him
about my unholy love of the OED,
Love that (and you)
and somehow that became a conversation about binary numbers, and I even tried to make a joke about binary numbers....and he didn't hang up on me! Keen!
How sad that a conversation about something as cromulent as the OED ended up mathy.
** edited to change "evolutionist" to "naturalist" because I have no problem accepting Evolution, proper.
Will she take the bottle in other circumstances?

Dude. Math is so cromulent.

Are they warming it for her?
Is she taking nothing at all? Could you disappear for one of her evening feedings at home for a few nights, to see if Paul can coax her into taking a bottle when she's really hungry, just to get her the hang of it? Also, have you given her any solids, yet? I know you were delaying it, because it's not necessary, but if she got tempted by a bowl of cereal or a fruit, which isn't delivered via boob and nipple, she might then be more accepting of a fake nipple delivering breast milk to wash it all down.
Dude. Math is so cromulent.
It's the Playtex Nurser in comparison to the fresh, warm breast full of mother's milk, which is the OED.
Did you try that boobie bottle, Plei?
Didn't have a chance to order one--I was hoping to find a local store that stocks them, but no such luck.
Will she take the bottle in other circumstances?
Nope. Not since about 3 months, when she decided that bottles were eeeeeevil. I think we were hoping that, when faced with a nine hour stretch away from the boob, she'd take one, but again, no such luck.
