I wonder if it's up on YouTube yet? not really!
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Never mind -- I think we're thinking of different less quiets. I'm assuming we'll see a doubling and redoubling of the hostilities, which I don't want to see at any time. But I wasn't clear.Oh! We were on different less quiets.
I was thinking of celebrating his death. Which I don't think I want to see.
Not more hostility which I am quite clear on not wanting. Whether I see it or not.
Vaguery, it's not just for the internets. Because you will be having the wrong conversation and not know it at first.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I getcha, Cass - we were both all oblique and shit. Plus, I'm way too tired and generally icky-feeling tonight to make sense of news that makes me more tired and icky. I think that's a sign that it's time for sleep, and not for the discussing of world affairs.

Go and get some sleep. It'll all be a new day on the calendar, if not actually new, tomorrow.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Just woke up.
Took nephew on the train, all bundled up and sipping hot cocoa with his face plastered to the window.
Got to to the museum just fine, and he was thrilled to put on a smock and play with all kinds of water displays that had boats and little pieces of foam that spirirled down chutes and shot across currents. There was a small fit after 30 minutes when we tried to take him to the next room, because he thought that was all there was and we were being mean.
But no, the next room was loaded with cars and trains play houses. Excellent fun. Another fit when we tried to go to the next place, but after that he figured out that each place was a ton o' fun and he was glad to take a hand and move along after a half hour or so.
Golf balls on slides, more smock fun in the bubble room where toddlers splashed in soapy water and made lots of bubbles, a jack hammer, blocks, wind displays filled with spinning pinwheels.
Then he easily left for lunch, for he was starved and losing his cute, ate a spinach and feta pizza and apple sauce.
Back to South Station where we watched the train set for a half hour and snacked on a cookie the size of his head, then bought flowers for mama and grammie. Met my dad and mom for the train ride home ("GRAMMIE! I BOUGHT YOU SOME FLOWERS!"...SO CUTE!).
When asked, "What was your favorite part of the whole day?" He replied, "Riding the choo choo train!"
So, we could have just rode the trains all day sipping hot cocoa and he would have had a blast.
Got home, mom ordered pizza, had a slice, and then I passed out. Til now.

Allyson, sounds like a fun day! With bonus choo choo trains!
I think ima be in big trouble if I bring The Second Coming home with any scratches.Whenever I - as a childless person - get these "reminders", I remind everyone that I am the only one who has never had to take the nephlet to the emergency room or the hospital.
Then I warn him that he's not allowed to be injured when he is with me because I want to continue the streak.
He doesn't totally understand me not wanting him maimed and bleeding for his own continued health, but he's got the concept of my vanity around the Other Adults.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Heh. I remember going with my cousin and her little girl to an amusement park. Katie was totally content to go on a handful of rides, and her mother wisely didn't tell her there was more so we left just as she was getting tired, instead of before she got over-tired and cranky. That's wise parenting, that is.
Now I have to go over the Crime Library site and read about Bob Berdella before I've had my breakfast. Sigh.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
