Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

The status is NOT quo.

I have teh funny to share with you all. Apparently OKCupid ran a contest for "favorite people", and the top winner's profile is worth a read. I was giggling the entire time.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Being paid for consistently is not something that comes easily to me.

Nor should it.

No, I'd like it to. I have issues that get in my way, and they shouldn't.

No, I'd like it to.

You're comfortable with the power dynamics I was describing? Or, would like to be comfortable with them? While I've certainly eaten on someone else's credit card -- many times --, I hate the easy inference that I can't pay my own way.

As far as I know, I haven't been part of that dynamic, so I see no reason for it to inhibit my acceptance that sometimes (and so far always) it's being done with non-derogatory intentions.

Hi everybody. How was everyone's fourth?

We traveled to Iowa and back on the 2nd and 3rd to visit a number of DW's relatives. The big thing there was that her cousin was in the country with a new baby. Her cousin and DH are missionaries in Scottland and are in the country for a couple of months this summer. We had to take the dog with us since there were too many fireworks to leave him at home in the yard. I think I spent more time walking the dog (in the rain) than actual visiting, but the main objectives of the trip were met.

Monday I got to see the kids taking their swimming lessons which was fun. Emaryn gets a bit grumpy because her swim teacher (a swim coach for a local high school) doesn't put up with anything and she isn't used to that being homeschooled. Leif likes the lessons though, but then he is nearly always happy. I was hoping to take them to the park, but it was just too wicked hot.

The Fourth was fun. I took the kids to a local fireworks show and it was the first year for Leif. They had a good time and it's always fun to watch them watching the fireworks. Also, it's becoming a 4th tradition that Daddy takes 'em to the fireworks show.

Ann, that's a ferret.

The asker pays, unless the woman does the asking—then the man should pay.

Please tell me how the first 10 words in this sentence mean anything.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The asker pays, unless the woman does the asking—then the man should pay.

So if a lesbian asks out another woman, they should find a third party to pay for the date?
