I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

Timelies. Finally caught up here after an extended family weekend in Maine. Still 500+ behind in bitches.

Ya know, it doesn't have to be warm (in fact, given how gross last Thursday's summer preview was, I'm going to be the weirdo and say I like the temprature as is), it doesn't even have to be sunny, it just really really really really REALLY NEEDS TO NOT BE FUCKING RAINING NO NOT EVEN DRIZZLE NOT EVEN MIST JUST FUCKING STOPSTOPSTOP!!!!!!!!!!!! I'LL HARM YOU!!

Ahem. That felt good. Thanks for letting me vent.

Oh, msbelle, a day that starts on 4am, along with not feeling well? Hmm. I'm showring you with orange-and-green glitter and feel-better vibes (which are still pink, sorry).

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

My day is almost over. it cannot come too soon. nasty cough.

Crap-ass coworkers, a 4 a.m. start time, and a nasty cough? So completely wrong. Vibing you get-home-quickly vibes, with a side of may-something-horrible-smite-them-all-in-your-absence.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am with Frank on the weather (would be with him on the temperature if I had more than one pair of decent work pants), and JZ on msbelle's job.

Now I am back to work, because I think I have a full hour before my next meeting, in which to try to figure out my job!!

except for the incessant burping, and that's really more embarrassing than miserable

Well, if you can't get a free pass with that when you're pregnant, when can you?

(Does Emmet, at least, enjoy that? He's right at the age for that, right?)

I'm glad your body is treating you and the Zahecubaby well.

Always Anti-fascist!

Corwood, I was deeply disappointed not to find you in Bitches. Cause I would've said that it takes a brave man to object to hair talk in there. Or a familiarity with alternative lifestyles.(/Wirefiend bonding moment) But you are right...doesn't often venture out here.

I'd say let's lock msbelle's cow-orkers in a death cage match with the weather and see who came out alive, but that wouldn't help get her project done, sadly.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh, and I absolutely loved smonster's picture of you dancing with Em.

She was an excellent partner and tolerated me pretty well when I didn't have to compete with Emmett. On the ferry back from Alcatraz she showed a decided preference for being held by Emmett though.

He's right at the age for that, right?

He's definitetly that age and after he's had a root beer our living room rings out with a fusillade of soda burps from him and JZ's sympathetic preggo burps.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

She is OBSESSED with boys Emmett's age. There's a brother of her classmate that always comes in to help drop his sister off and when he walks in the classroom, she stops what ever she's doing and stands there, with her fingers in her mouth, stares at him, and then smiles around her fingers. I watched her do it, coy little minx.

erika! Again, I'm with the F2F pictures, but I absolutely loved how you looked at the prom (oh, and the dress was nice, too).

On the ferry back from Alcatraz she showed a decided preference for being held by Emmett though.

Well, she probably figured out that you're already taken by the lovely pregnant lady, so she was being polite. Um, or something. How did Emmet take it?

A daughter of a friend, even when she was only a few months old, and more and more as she grew older, would respond completely different to boys than she would to girls, and it would be even more pronounced when the boys were around her age. There's a Yiddish word, "Kheindalakh", for just that sort of behavior she expressed towards boys. [Edit: Huh. Sort of x-post with Aimée]

our living room rings out

So there's a definite plus side, as far as he's concerned, to the pregnancy. Excellent. Does he know that babies don't only burp all the time, but are also expected to?
