You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Allyson, that's fantastic! Holy moly. See? You don't suck!!!
So glad Grace's surgery went well! May Grace and Noah have some undramatic months now to get big and strong.
Southern: Billboards with Bible verses on them. Driving past three giant crosses set up in farmers' fields. (I had to explain that one to a Northern friend of mine once.) Biscuits and milk gravy. That crack of candy bars, the Goo-Goo Bar. Catfish jamborees. Sweet tea served in Ball jars. Cake walks. Squaredances. Pretending to swig the moonshine when the gallon jug comes your way, just to impress the guys. I'm getting nostalgic for a place I don't even want to go back to.

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'm glad Grace's surgery went well.
The South: Brunswick stew. Impeach Earl Warren signs. Moon Pies and RC. George Wallace. The Birmingham church bombing. Cornbread without sugar, the way god intended it. Collards. Gone with the Wind. Ted Turner. Picking cotton. Tobacco fields. Blind Willie McTell. Johnny Mercer. The Allman Brothers. REM. Peanuts in Coke.

YAY ALLYSON!!
Yay good Grace surgery. hoping for boring weeks ahead.
I am just sitting down to do three or four things for work. Mac was a giant pill tonight. We had visit 2 of 4 from a social worker in mac's first 12 months here (as required by Ethiopia). GIANT PILL. Shocking only to him, I got to say things like "I know you think that you won't get in trouble because we have a guest, but you are wrong. Keep this up and you will lose toys and tv."

Save your Confederate money, boys. The South will rise again.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Tobacco fields. Planting tobacco. The stupid finger-pinching seedling-planting machine that got dragged along behind the tractor. Driving the tractor just the right speed for planting evenly. Sunburn. Drying tobacco turning the air inside the barn into solid nicotine. Stripping dried tobacco leaves. Brown stains on fingers. Never even considered smoking after five years of working tobacco.
Okay, nostalgia gone. Thanks.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oy. OK, let's focus all the kid drama to be transmorgified (I think I may have made that up or bastardized it ) to GOOD drama for Allyson.
Mister Mac, behave, ok? Yeah, it's great that you are so comfy as to be a horsepill but really? Not necessary. Your mom love you, which is why she has rules.
I'm a dork. Watching a thing on Uluru or Ayers Rock when I should have gone to bed.
