Well, I don't seem to be using mine, you want it Nora?

Spike's Bitches 29: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
They are quitting the Service and moving to Portland.
What is it about Portland that draws ex-State Dept employees? (My in-laws were thisclose to moving there before my MiL got a really good job in DC, and they decided to buy a condo instead. Weird.)

What is even happening?
He's been pretty depressed since we bought the house, and I feel hella guilty about it, because I love the house, and love Salem, and I feel like I pushed him into this. Which, no, I didn't really, but it's my tendency to blame myself for stuff when I see people I care about hurting.
Oh, that's hard. Wasn't the move, in part, for Tom to have a more reasonable commute?
Who wants to cover me while I go over there and resue that baby from a life of ridiculous parenting that borders on dangerous?
Make a quick edit to post number 8895, and the areaistas will swear you were here, the entire time.

peanut butter
(Which is total bullshit, because I've babysat ugly babies before, and all that happens is that after an hour in their company I decide they are beautiful after all and that I was just too stupid to see it before.)
JZ, I love you too much. Oh, and I keep meaning to tell you and tell you, I read Chesterton's Orthodoxy, and saw so much of your way of thinking in his way of thinking (which made me love him even more than I would have, if I didn't know you).

Always Anti-fascist!
Somebody did that to him, I think. Everybody lies, especially child-abusing jackholes. Let me do it...ain't got much to lose. I broke my brain. I've got a note.

This is me too. Or possibly a book flood. I can't believe how much junk paper work I got rid of yesterday.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I wanted to drive out there and bitch slap Britney after the car seat fiasco. There were a couple of times when I've had to put my kids in a car seat where there was screaming, Owen scratching his face in frustration and (as a toddler) stiffening up and fighting me the whole time. I had people watching me and, I'm sure, empathizing or pitying me. But I took the time and did it even though it made us all completely miserable.
That driving down the freeway with a kid on your lap shit made me ballistic. I've yelled at people I've seen driving around town here with babies and toddlers out of car seats.
