[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What is even happening?

Cindy, Scott's an equal partner parent. DO NOT feel guilty. If Julia really, really needed YOU, she would have come and gotten you.

Well, we were together. He heard her. I didn't. But okay, shutting up, now.

Because books.

No, no need to shut up! Just ... I am way more selfish than you. If Stephen heard the kids in the night, and got up and took care of them without me (which he has done), my reaction would be, "Oh, thank god."

Like I said, selfish = me. Especially when it comes to sleep and/or not having to clean up bodily fluids.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Cindy, what they're saying.

ChiKat! Feel better!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Wait. Chi, you've been GOING TO WORK?

Ummm....yeah....

Does your doctor know that?

Ummmm....no....

It's hard. I'm student teaching right now and trying to make a good impression and all that.

Thanks, Vortex. What are you still doing up? Is the uni closed again tomorrow?

nope, I'm just a night owl who doesn't know how to go to bed :)

Oh, honey. I'm so glad you stayed home, today. Stay home tomorrow, too. People make such a better impression when they don't have freaking pneumonia.

This is true. Particularly because I can barely talk right now. My voice has gone kaput because of all the coughing. Also, my students can sense my physical weakness and are taking advantage.

Seriously, I assigned 4 classes an essay on Tuesday to be completed for homework and due on Wednesday. Out of my 110-ish students, 30 turned them in. Thirty.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

If you were writing to someone with a disability to tell them you had two sick people at home, would you use the word "cripples"? I'm not upset or angry, it just struck me as an odd word choice to use.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I had a totally romantical/lovey dovey (but not sexual, really) dream about Dwayne from Little Miss Sunshine last night. Except, he was this really odd hybrid between Dwayne and one of my exes.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Teppy, that's the best kind of doomed!

I just got back from visiting a preschool. I liked it. We can even afford it. It's all free-play learning and they don't even require potty training for 3 year olds. It appeals to my inner hippie.

Now to fill out the registration and hope there's a spot for Owen.
