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

Cream cheese in a can!
No problem, ita.
We just saw Horton Hears a Who. Not the best movie in the world. And we went without kids. There were lots of Dads alone with kids at the theater. Saturdays are a big Dads-Day-Out With kids.

Aiieeefuck. Friend's stepson is spiraling. Her heart is breaking. I want to grab him by the neck and shake some sense into him. Arrested for pot possession. Told her she wasn't his mom (she's been the only motherly figure in his life for the past 8 years, and before that, his biomother essentially abandoned him. And she's been a goddamned good mom, he's just been making atrocious choices.) Kids? Know where to cut.
I really want to knock some sense into him. He's got so much potential, and yet so much hurt. I just want... Hope is a bitch.

Yes. Humans are awful that way. It really makes you wonder how much you can do, if it's worth keeping trying, how engaged you can usefully be.
Of course I know I won't bother to get off my ass and get the spa treatment. Inertia plus that whole upcoming joblessness thing.
Today was just a waste. Dragged myself to therapy and could barely stay awake, and from there to massage, and definitely didn't stay awake there. God, I'm spent.

Hey Kat, may I ask that you take a look at that spa week site and let me know what is available in WA?
Muah-ha-ha! We have converted Kristin to the good tea! (Which reminds me, I need to order some more.)
So, do toddlers just have the concept of "WHEEEE NAKED TIME!" always lurking in the back of their heads? 'Cos damn, Princess Tickybox was determined not to wear her clothes at Auntie Jilli's house.

I have artwork on my walls by a friend and I'm reminded that the artist at 2-3 had a prolonged, determined naked phase. She was a regular stripper. It's a Thing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
When my cousin's daughter was potty training they had a deal: If C kept her pull-up dry all day she could have naked time for ten minutes before bed.
My cousin would pull off the clothes, the kid would run around the house like a maniac, vaulting over the couch (and my head) and have an all around great naked kid time before her bath and jammas.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
have an all around great naked kid time before her bath and jammas.
Meanwhile, us adults expend huge amounts of time and effort to have great naked times....

Now tagless for your comfort.
So, do toddlers just have the concept of "WHEEEE NAKED TIME!" always lurking in the back of their heads?
YES. It is their true mission in life. To get naked, be naked and stay naked. The more naked the better. The longer the naked, the better.
