"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I mean, I don't want want to be prudish or anything, because fantasies are deeply personal, but why does posting you're a nurse equal too-tight uniform, fishnets and heels.
I think it has more to do with nurses having both authority and a presumed intimacy with your body. It's an entre into a power dynamic.

I don't think people with nurse fantasies are thinking about fishnets. They're thinking about invasive enemas. It's not about eroticizing the nurse, but the kink potential in their role.

Compassionately intolerant

Oooh. Oooh. Puppy pics.

Here's my boy Bartleby.

I've temporarily given up adding to our pack...but I'm inspired by all these great pooch stories.

Here are my cats!

FRED

BARNEY

Fred was attacked by my neighbors dog the other day. They just moved into their house and they had no AC so they brought the dogs to our house. Its not a big legal deal cause the neighbor and my mom have been friends for a long time.

Our kitty is definitely part of the family. He likes to curl up in bad with us. We're constantly talking to him and about him.

It's sad really. We're crazy, crazy people.

Dog is my co-pilot.

Thanks everyone. Tim, I hope Fred is ok. Brenda, your Lucy is lovely. And, Beej, Bartleby is oh so handsome.

Sadly, that's not my pool. I'm very fortunate to have a friend who designed her pool to be dog-friendly. DH, Lucy, and I are headed there tomorrow morning. DH has never actually seen Lucy swim, so this will be a treat for him. She grew up on the Chesapeake Bay and loves the water. We adopted her when she was 6-1/2. Her family had 3 kids in 4 years and ran out of time for her. They're nice, though, and they still keep in touch 5 years later. That's not real common in rescue.

Sean, you're not crazy. Kitties are part of the family. And we talk about, to, and (perhaps most disturbing) for our dogs.

ETA: And I am SO not posting a pic for you guys of me in a well-fitted white dress, white stockings, and those nursey shoes. And my nursing cap. If only my graduation uniform still fit!

Too late, I'm pretty sure we saw that picture. I remember thinking there was a resemblance to JZ, actually.
