Oy. Just got an email from my mom that my little cousin (who's actually 18 now, but still somewhere around 9 in my mind) has gotten into trouble. I don't want to go into details on a public forum, but both police and hospitals were involved. I'm pretty worried about him now.

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Hi from my honeymoon in the FL Keys! We are having a great time. Ate seafood on the water twice today. Spent most of the day in the pool, which is right next to the ocean. Best of both worlds. Tomorrow we are going on a boat tour of the Everglades. Whee!!!!
Kristin, Seamus and momo are so much alike! Does he have any white on him? The mo has 2 small white patches on her belly. So cute!
Seamus has a tiny white patch on his chest, and a little patch of a few white hairs on his shoulder.
SeamusNmomo4evah!

-ma to your cousin, you, your family, Hil.
Yay for GC and DW's seafood-eating honeymoon!

What Windsparrow said.
Also, amusing anecdote from school today (well, I think it's funny):
UnfortunatelyNamed(9yearold)Child: He just called me BlackShit*!
Teacher: Who did?
UnfortunatelyNamedChild: Him! (points at Atman, a feisty five year old boy with long braid hanging down his back, a very pretty wee face and a snotty nose - who, incidentally, really has no room to mock other kids' names, with a brother called Arpit, but that's beside the point)
Teacher: Atman, Akshit says you were rude about his name! We don't do that here.
Akshit (who, it must be said, IS a bit of a little shit at times) nods emphatically.
Atman looks thoughtful.
Atman: Okay. Sorry.
five minutes pass by.
Akshit: Teacher! Teacher!
Teacher: Yes?
Akshit: Now he called me a fucker!
( *in another context I might have read this as racist, but given that both kids are the same ethnicity, I just read it as fairly impressive - albeit highly inappropriate and offensive - wordplay and an incisive assessment of Akshit's character.)
