Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

[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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

We had no demands for cards, but we're in the infant room.

However, we have a cute daycare story. I apologize, but I must share.

Lillian, like most babies, hates it when we wipe, suction, or otherwise mess with her nose (she's okay with nose touching so long as it is gentle and clearly recreational in nature--it's just desnotting and washing she dislikes).

Yesterday, one of the other little girls in her class was getting her runny nose cleaned up and was making a fuss about it. Lillian was sitting next to her, made a note of this, and proceeded to stick her hand in front of the other baby's nose to protect it from the attack of the snot sucker.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

It's possible I'm overthinking this.

Ummmmmm. [insert not-a-mom disclaimer]

Seriously, if this is a habit with people's daycares, maybe some parents could team up to boycott these things until the workers discover the nifty new combination called calendars and forethought.

Or I could be projecting my frustration over certain PhD coworkers who still can't figure calendars out.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

That's the sort of thing that happens when you forget a snack.

We got our Harry Potter Valentine's for $1.08.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh. Lillian the snot-sucker slayer....

The thing about daycare is that, IME, they KNOW that you will do anything for your child to NOT BE DIFFERENT. And so, they don't plan. The only time I freaked out on them not planning was when they all of a sudden (Like, Nov. 10th) decided to be closed on Veteran's Day. Enough of us parents freaked out on her and she kept the school open. So sometimes, it's worth freaking out, sometimes, NSM.

If I only had a brain...

So young, and already an activist. You must be proud. (Seriously, great empathy for such a young kid.)
