Trudy -- I found a painting similar on a site about the School of Fontainebleau - I swear that there is also one of Diane of Poitiers and another woman similar to the one of Gabriella d'Estrees and her sister.
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.
Yes! In fact, I need to start looking at dates and flights and stuff.

The dream was nasty and lingeringI've been having really vivid dreams for a bit now and sometimes they are really hard to shake off. Mine are getting a little better, or at least easier to shake off as dreams and not feeling so real once I wake up.

Deena, this may or may not be true in Aidan's case. My kids' Montessori school said that some children "hide skills till they're perfected": they make all their progress internally, cognitively, until they're ready to do the whole damned thing at once. My son was like that -- he went from not writing at all to writing fluently in something like a week. The teacher said she'd never seen such an extreme case.
My office just had cake in the breakroom for Mozart.
I love my office.

I allowed myself a lazy ass morning and just wandered into the office about 30 minutes ago. And I'm leaving within the next 30.
Dinner with Buffistas last night rocked like a rocking thing that rocks. Kinda wish it hadn't been a school/work night as I wanted to stay and play until late, late, late.
