She was quieted with a stern look and the promise of many stripey tights when we go school shopping this weekend.
Although thinking about it, this may have been her dad's influence as well, as he has a certain proclivity for stripey tights as well.
Brought on by you.
Well, now *I* need stripey tights!!!
Hee!!!
Not the first pics
Definitely not - the phrase "Oh, I didn't realize he was uncircumsized" is burned into my brain from the first batch.

Of course you do. And this is the time of year to stock up on them. The ones that Wallgreens usually has for Halloween are just as good as the tights that Hot Topic and other gothy-themed stores sell.

It's the kind of thing one remembers.
Happy Birthday, Trudy and Kara!
Sigh.
To add to the joys of 2008, apparently I have a Very Christian parent who is reading
Catcher in the Rye
for the first time and is very upset that it was assigned as summer reading. She apparently was worried that last year's reading in 8th grade was "too heavy." Our reading list this year for 9th?
Catcher,
excerpts from the Bible,
Lord of the Flies, Medea, The Odyssey, The Penelopiad,
poetry, and
Macbeth.
Um.
Aims, I wouldn't get worried until she starts demanding a candy bra.
Although it occurs to me - having his dear daughter pleading, and then throwing a full-scale tantrum, might give MM the incentive he needs to GET THE TRANSPORTER WORKING.
I have purple and black sparkley stripey tights. They're waiting for this dress to arrive: [link]
I swear, half the reason I'm starting a band is to wear stuff like this on stage.
Isn't all the world a stage?
And I saw that in the catalog and thought it might appeal to some of the Buffistas.

Um.
You're teaching them good Christian values like prejudice, ambition, murder, traveling, and rhyming!
