Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Don't forget the cut up hot dogs.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I should say I can't live without the cell (one car + one child + two adults = coordination hell), and that the dishwasher and washer/dryer are also much loved, used, and needed.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

God's own comfort food. Aside from mashed potatoes.

I've been watching the new Doctor Who during my treadmill time. So I decide to go to TWoP to read some snarky recaps of what I have watched, and the hell? What is up with the Doctor Who recaps, I want snark not analysis of the underlying themes and .... can't think of the word for it... some sort of psuedo-poetic musings. At least the House recaps are classic TWoP.

I just remembered one of the really PIA things about line-drying: our part of town had mulberry trees. And grackles.
I also grew up with purple grackle poop. My mom didn't get a dryer until after we were both out of diapers (in the pre-disposable era). Sometimes she reminds us of this. Eventually, that conversation gets around to her ironing her brothers' Army uniforms during WWII.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Mmmmmm, cheese.
I seriously need this guy to finish up so I can go out and get some lunch. I also need BabyMoon to stop trying to kick his way out of my chest, because it's really not comfortable.

Yeah, I suspect I'm going to be something of a hypocrite with Emeline. When I was a kid I would play in the swamp across the busy street from my neighborhood, or in the quarry down the road, fully confident in my invulnerability. Now, I get paranoid about taking Em to the park. Granted, LA is vastly different from Ann Arbor, but...
Mom used to send me outside when she'd had enough, and wouldn't let me back in until the time she said she would unless there was something urgent. I also used to be able to just go hang out in the toy department of the department store, or go to the book store, while my parents were off shopping elsewhere, both in and out of the store I might be in. And I walked to school by myself from kindergarten on.
Also, car seats? What's a car seat? Granted, my parents didn't even have a car until I was 4 or 5. When they got one, it was a VW Beetle. You know where I sat almost 90% of the time I rode in that thing? In the "luggage rack" behind the back seat, which, in those old-school VWs, was over the engine (this was my choice, incidentally - it was like my own private seat. Unthinkable! Or how about riding in a station wagon with the back down and sitting on the back tail. Helmets for bicycles? Are you KIDDING!??!??!
