In Bitches, Beth nails the essence of long-term relationships:
beth b: it seems to me that a live-in relationship ranges from hi, oh yeah we share a bed to hooray the person I love most in the world is here, I must crush them with my love to please vanish for three hours so I can be all by myself and yes, take the cat with you.

A couple weeks ago I had this example of how much I swear in front of Emeline shown to me.
I was trying to do...something. Something with the DVD player and it wasn't working and I was getting frustrated.
Eventually, I threw up my hands, growled and said "God..." and stopped because I remembered my wee innocent child was standing three feet behind me.
And then I heard my wee innocent child say, in the most helpful tone of voice imaginable, mind "'Damn it', Daddy."
Evidently, she thought I forgot the rest of the phrase.
Cashmere in Bitches:
My children will swear like stevedores raised by pirates at a truck stop.

I just got done de-boning a truly yummy turkey I roasted this morning. There is something so primal and satisfying about doing that.
Plus, the pot of soup I'm making along with it smells fantastic.
PLUS, there is Bartleby's earnest, "Can you see me over here on my spot being good? This is some world class 'good' going on over here. First rate stuff. And I say this, not so much because the goodness that is me is worthy of note, but that it is goodness worthy of reward."
I swear, if he had actual eyebrows, he'd be waggling them at me.
Hey, thanks Laga!
Now, if only Bartleby considered being commed for posterity to be reward enough...but nooooo.
