Thanks, everyone. Chris had a great birthday. His party is next Thursday, so he's still got some more excitement to come.
Meanwhile, I can't stop watching Pearl. It's so wrong, and horrifying, really, but so so funny.
Who died and made you Elvis?

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[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.

Mostly lurking...
It's been pretty quiet in here this morning, which means I paid bills. They're all gonna be early! YAY! Love it when I get myself together and do stuff like that.

Our wings are not tired.

Happy Birthday, Christopher!!!
It's a lovely day here. I went for a walk at the beach with my overweight dog at 7:30 this morning. This should be a habit. Does one day make a habit?

Thrive to spite them
I'm at work. Woke up this morning and NO FEVER! YAY!
So far I have a giant ballon and there was a notice that they are catering lunch for us today. I was worried about being able to eat whatever it was because the people doing the ordering don't know I'm a vegetarian. But my supervisor assured me there'd be stuff for me to eat.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay no fever! Yay walk! Yay being 7!
Woo.

Come one, come all, to my LJ to play Name That Girl Scout Badge!!!
I found my Girl Scout uniform last night, and I seriously can't identify what some of the badges are for. Though apparently I went into outer space in the early 80s (you'll see).
Yes, I *could* look on the interbunny to find out what the badges are for, because there are undoubtedly many many MANY Web sites devoted to Girl Scout minutiae, but I'd rather see if anyone can identify the badges *without* assistance.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I have no idea, but I'm just gonna guess that one badge is for "Sold a shitload of cookies."
eta: I should have known - a shitload of badges are for selling a shitload of cookies.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
You're right about the Horse Care badge. The horseback riding one has just a horse's head. I think the blocks have something to do with teaching. You have group sports right. Cat laying on the scrapbook: Crafting?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
There was a story in the paper a while ago about an Eagle Scout who'd earned every single badge available. Impressive ... in a weird kind of way. He ended up sewing three sashes together to make room for them all.
edited to add, I have no idea about any of this - I lasted one month in Brownies.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Teppy, I linked you to the Girl Scouts site where they sell the badges.
I sewed Owen a Sock puppet this morning. I found a cheap kit at Half Price Books on Monday.
We're out of rainy day activities. We started drawing with markers. Moved on to playdoh (Olivia choked on a piece and barfed). When she went down for her nap, we sewed Dragon. Owen won't take him off now.
My mom was our brownie troop leader. We never got past the brownie stage (although we did go to camp one year).
