I wasn't around when teacup guy was named so I keep thinking of Jackie Chan (he collects teacups).
Oh great, now you've gone and blown his secret identity.
I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
But I wanted to marry Jackie Chan!

The status is NOT quo.
Laga, we dubbed sj's DF "Teacup Guy" because his first gift to her was a lovely teacup (which she collects). We were very impressed by this gift; hence, his nickname. He used to dislike it, but I think he decided it wasn't that bad once sj explained to him how fondly we were using it.

Congratulations, sj! We've loved him ever since the teacup.

Oh well, that was fun. Just had a screaming fight with EM (all on her end) about where to pick Emmett up after wrestling tomorrow.
The solution: where we always pick him up.
Yay, irrational, freaking out, crazy lady.

{{{Hec}}} I hope Em is able to find some calm soon.
I suppose I should be sleeping, although I don't know how that will be possible. TCG is taking tomorrow off of work to hopefully have his car fixed. I can't decide if I should cancel therapy for tomorrow to stay home if he needs a ride or not.

Congrats sj and tcg!!!

Lisah, if you want to really rebel, come out as a brussels sprout lover
I AM a brussel sprouts lover! mmm roasted with a little olive oil and salt and pepper. delicioso!
I actually sauté a little bacon, then remove it and add the brussel sprouts to the drippings. I brown the sprouts quickly, then deglaze with some lemon juice and a little stock, then cover and let them steam in the stock. I serve with the crunchy bacon bits and little lemon zest sprinkled on top for color.

Tea:
Buffistas should feel kind of honored because most of our family doesn't even know yet. My mom knows of course, because of the diamond, but we are telling TCG's family in person when we see them. We're having dinner with his mother and stepfather on Friday and his father and stepmother on Tuesday, and we'll tell his brother when we see them on our visit to Charlotte. t /engagement likes carrots

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

And, indeed, engagement likes carats.

Aww. It's so sweet! What a lovely thing to have that ring.
