We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!  

[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.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Dear Co-Worker:

For Christmas, I would like it if you spoke to me about something that wasn't a problem or issue. I would like a conversation with you to revolve around something that isn't insinuated is a problem I created or a situation that is my fault. Yes, the conferences this week went well. Thanks for asking! Yes, I am certain that whatever I do with the credit card machine will end with us being laible to lawsuit. Thanks. You don't have to be nice or civil to me every day, but maybe once a week, you might say something to me that does not have the subtext of, "you're a dumb ass, Nora."

GOD.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

MM had to hide one of Emeline's Christmas packages from me cause I almost opened it.

We don;t know what family member it's from, but I want to OPEN IT NOW.

It's from American Girl.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Aimée! Set a good example!

What is even happening?

Aimée! Set a good example!
Yes, open it, to ensure her safety, and then re-wrap it, like any good mother would.

Aimee, what ita said (but I have to tell you that when I was getting stuff for my daughter from American Girl, Mom and I would always open every box, take the stuff out and squee over it - it was FUN!)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I vote for what Cindy said.

Do you think you'll be able to re-wrap, Aimee? Or will you want to keep it and play with it yourself?

Meanwhile, a wee (3.4) earthquake just had us wondering what the odd jobbers dropped.

Oh now should I start now???

Yes, open it, to ensure her safety, and then re-wrap it, like any good mother would.

Yes! I like this plan. Now, I have to convince Joe of it.

I could do both.

If I only had a brain...

Huh. Didn't feel it all this side of t'bay.
