Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Holding L's T today, he curled into a ball in my arms. Knees up to his chin, head down...he was the size of a volleyball. A warm, grunting, farting volleyball. God, I love'em.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It was kind of an adventure and a bunch of us bonded a little, what with being trapped together

I...think I would kill someone.

But I wish I were better at it, because I'm depriving me of so much. I need to get better at weekend trips.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I am home tonight watching, among other things, the Hard & Phirm comedy special on Comedy Central. It occurred to me that they might be something that most people here would like-- they do comedy songs (I don't know what to call that genre, but you know, like FotC) and I think they're really smart & funny. And not in a hipster way. Recommended!

Now tagless for your comfort.

lori, thanks for the link! I just got a simple origami kit to do with the kids and it is much harder than it looks. And it looks fucking hard!

sara, I'm so thrilled with the stories of your birth-attending. Birth photos are tricky things--you're inevitably going to capture "too much" but you can always crop that stuff out. One of my favorite photos came from my cousin holding his son right after he was born. The nurse took the photo and the foreground is my cousin beaming at his newborn while right over his shoulder, the mother was being stitched up, grimacing and clutching the sides of her bed.

Having to pee when you're cold just doubles up the suck.

I broke down, took a bath and ran out for McDonalds for dinner. DH took the kids grocery shopping and came back loaded for bear.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Fight Science on National Geographic this weekend is going to feature some of our local krav instructors. Amir Perets (formal IDF Special Forces) will be being attacked by Jonathan Dugas (just finished cop training, but he's been training cops for yonks) and Brent Wilkening (computer nerd). And there's an ad for our centre going to air too. It's all cute and stuff with one of the smaller chicks beating the crap out of a guy that grabs her in the parking lot.

My pay days are the 15th and last day of the month

Mine, too.

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

Jesse just played PENIS.

There aren't enough Js for vajayjay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hey, you've got to work with what you've got!
