Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Goddamn Grey's Anatomy for introducing such an annoying euphemism.

Was it GA? I somehow missed that. Probably because I've never seen the show.

Anyway, I'm sticking with my Ha!, because I always get a giggle when someone gets one past the "I know it when I see it" appropriateness filters at the DMV. It is possible that I am twelve.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I support that general sentiment as well as your Ha!

I don't think of it being a euphemism so much as a nickname. Not that I use it. I prefer "My Ladyparts."

yeah, the attending (Bailey) was giving birth,and one of the interns was helping. He was saying "oh, I can see the head crowning" or something, and she said "stop looking at my va-jay-jay!"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Of course, when most people say "vagina," they mean vulva, don't they? Damn Eve Ensler.

Like, "Meet my vulva; I call her Mitzie"?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Also? The anti-Obama faction (whether Republican or the new fun Democrats against Obama) who refer to Obama supporters as having "drank the Kool-Aid" need to STEP OFF NOW. Because that means....what, exactly? That it took *drugging the voters* to make them vote for Obama, otherwise they'd never vote for Scary Black Man?

Hell yeah, but I get pinged when it's used period. My HUGE problem with "drank the Kool-Aid" is the whole Jonestown reference, drinking the Kool-Aid means accepting a suicidal proposition. REally? Voting for Obama is equivalent to suicide?!

Given the accepted political rhetoric in this country, I think trying to get a white woman elected would be just as hard as trying to get a black man. All the irrational blather lately has been playing right into the Right's hands, and don't think they don't love it.

I'm so tired my teeth hurt. I'm so tired that my eyes feel wobbly. I'm so tired my face feels simultaneously puffy and crusty.

I'm so very very very tired.

Alas, I am Kat WRT to tiredness today. I have no idea what it will take to get me back on a normal sleep routine. I fear it may involve sleeping pills, and how does that work when you have small kids? How much damage can you do to your body by not having a good night's sleep in, what has it been?, almost 5 years?

I so hear you here. I had a dream last night in which I announced to someone that I was neither pregnant nor nursing (not true; I am not pregnant but I am still nursing Peter.) And I woke up thinking, damn, I have been pregnant or nursing (or, briefly, both) for 5.5 years now, and I haven't had a decent night's sleep in that long either.
