Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

[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.

For billytea and other zoo-istas: we went to the National Zoo this weekend. Saw various buffista-associated animals including 2 capybara, naked mole rats, baby panda. Photos start here: [link]

Get that Emeline a tube of kiddie toothpaste to gnaw on - less icky whe she breaks through. (Not grownup toothpaste as flouride isn't good for you in big bites).

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oooh, flea, excellent critter pictures. Also, lovely picture of you and your critters (present and incipient).

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Aww. Your zoos are big with the mole rat love. All across America, people are waking up to the magic of mole rats!

What is even happening?

vw bug, welcome back!!!!!!!!eleventy

got a question for the hivemind -- what do you do when someone that you don't know makes a racist comment on a friend's livejournal? I don't know who the commenter is, but I've seen them on a bunch of friends lists. It may or may not be someone I know/have met, but I don't know who it is.
That's a hard one, because some people aren't going to be worth your keystrokes or your mellow.

If you decide you want to address it Vortex, maybe you could make reply with something along the lines of, "I've been trying to assume you meant to be funny and inoffensive with this remark, but it just keeps striking me otherwise."

We've had 'em in Columbus for a long time, IJS.

Crap. Because I didn't get an email yesterday, I've missed out on a $10 Little Tike car & scooter for Owen that was listed on Craigslist. Feh.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Just another quick post before I head to the airport.

No news from mom, which leads me to believe she is still stuck in emergency waiting for a room to be available.

K-Bug passed her driving test - watch out folks. Her tester was a very thorough dude who wanted her to share the cake a friend had given her. Then the computer almost didn't authotize the license since TODAY is her birthday and marks the 6 months since she got her permit. They had to do an override.

Ok. Time to check the bag and make sure I remembered all the stuff I need for this silly trip.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So, I've been looking for Paris apartment rentals (DH and I are going in September for our 5-year anniversary), and I noticed this on one of the sites.

F2F2007 in Marrakech, anyone?

Suzi, all the best to your mom. I hope you and K have a good time. I'm so glad she passed her test!

Jess, is E okay, now?

Cashmere, how'd Olivia do, today? Did she nap, or was she all wired from her long sleep last night? I thought of you several times today, while toddler wrangling. One went one way, the other went t'other way, both had snotty noses, and were tired and cranky (because they miss their mommy mostly, and only know me a little bit).
