Your parents sound like an awesome combination, Vortex.
you say awesome, I say freaky and antipodal. Whichever, they've been together for 36 years.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's beautiful, Vortex!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I meant I am full of awe that you and they have survived this long!
...just kidding.
Crap. I am now in that point at work where I wait for people to get back to me. People who are not in the office. I guess I could start on the next thing, but eh.

It's probably my favorite dad story. My mother is a lunatic. I had to hide tampons in my room all during high school.
Because it would be so much less embarrassing to deal with the consequences of their lack than just having the things conveniently on hand?

Yeah, such a surprise that Andrea Yates was/is insane. Such a tragedy.

No doubt in my mind she was bat-shit craxy, but that doesn't excuse her, and it sure as shit doesn't make her not guilty, even by reason of insanity.
I'm completely and unreasonably angry about this verdict, and I feel like the insanity plea should be completely done away with. There are plenty of bat-shit craxy people (here) that manage to NOT DROWN THEIR CHILDREN.
goes back to angry corner so as not to infect others with it.

Always Anti-fascist!
But if she's in the hospital...a state mental ward, she's not getting away with anything. Seriously.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Her (now ex) husband put up the fight for the insanity ruling. From what I've read she'll be locked up forever in a hospital as opposed to a prison.
