maybe a cameo with a small compartment in the back, Or a locket?
It needs to be big enough to hold at least half a dozen letters, though.
And remember, if you hurt her, I will beat you to death with a shovel.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Wow. This is very far removed from my experience at work. I would estimate that the father of the baby is present at *maybe* 25% of the deliveries.
Yeah, for huge subsets of the population it's very far from the norm, but, really, you should see the shitstorm that flew on Amazon at her very, very mild assumption that not all birth partners are Husbands. If she'd dared to talk at any substantial length about solo parenting or same-sex parenting (and she did, a bit; it just wasn't the main focus), these people would've paid to ship somebody to England to crucify her upside-down as a warning to all the other mad bitches who hate Western civilization.
The humans, they are incomprehensible, and frequently disturbing.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
But what could it be? I want something kind of unique and very of the era, but also something that hide letters, since that will play into the plot later on. A jewelry box seems logical, but also kind of expected, what with the somtimes-secret-compartment-having and all.
A glove box. Or a box for collars.
Raq, yes, those games were named after Clovis. I've known the folks at CheapAss Games for years and years and years.
Still thinking about hiding under my desk. Very important tool (not a person, tho' that made me laugh, brenda) STILL NOT WORKING. ieeeee!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
And don't even get me started on Vicki Iovine's Girlfriend's Guide To Pregnancy, which is all about that ha-ha, our husbands are all such emotionally incompetent fucktards, isn't he cute, and isn't it wonderful that we have our GIRLFRIENDS to help us through pregnancy since the grown-up humans we've pledged our lives to are so utterly fucking useless? Ha-ha!
Ah ha ha! I so disliked that book, JZ. It wasn't just that she assumed all husbands were emotional idiots. I was also skeeved by her rather aggressive insecurity.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Silly girl! Haven't you learned by now that the only people allowed to talk in public about BAYBEEZ are the licenced representatives of Focus on the Family?

Soothing vibes for Jilli.
A music box is good, too!
Wow. This is very far removed from my experience at work. I would estimate that the father of the baby is present at *maybe* 25% of the deliveries.
I was surprised when I went to a new-to-me OB when pregnant with Sara, and she assumed my children all had different fathers because of the age differences (at that point, 11, 6, and fetus). I mean, I was surprised because it seemed like such a weird assumption, but given the circumstances, not unlikely.
The humans, they are incomprehensible, and frequently disturbing.
Very much so.

Oooh! Now that's what I'm talking about -- something unique and pretty but not necessarily useful *now*. Off to Google images...

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Or a box for collars.
My mind did NOT go where I think it was supposed to have gone on that one....

Always Anti-fascist!
I had an attendant once who was younger than my mom but had like eight grandkids(So in addition to being a Tragic Cripple, we were the family of Barren Freaks because mom had no grandkids.) Well, one morning we watched NorCal Baby Story or some shit about 38 yo dotcommers sprogging, and she was like, appalled that this woman with a business and a husband waited till she was 38. Her daughters all had many baby daddies, too, and only one was worth a crap, right?
