Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

“Not dead yet!”
I just bought my mom a Valentino fragrance gift set.
I should probably order flowers as well.
::sigh::
This would actually be pretty fun if it the whole ordeal weren't fraught with the tension of "Is it enough? Should I get more? Will she like it?"
Which I'm actually mostly past, thank goodness-- it's down to twinges that I mostly shove to one side.

I am forever grateful that Mother's Day is a card-only holiday in my family..

I'm thinking of adopting a bat for each of my parents for Mother's and Father's Day: [link]
Dad will appreciate it more, but mom'll get a kick out of it anyway. She too likes bats.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Oh crap - I've been so busy dropping hints to DH about Mother's Day for ME (if I don't, he'll forget to make brunch reservations and then we won't get a table anywhere) that I forgot to get MY mom anything!! Heh. Oops.

I saw a darling Publix commercial tonight of dads and sons cooking together, and I only figured out at the end they were making Mother's Day breakfasts in bed. I need to find it online and email the link to mr. flea. Man needs explicit directions.

Har. I usually do flowers, but I was thinking perfume this year, or maybe a copy of Strong Poison plus something else.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
My mom will be out of town on Mother's Day. I think she did the same thing last year. Hm.

OK, so I just adopted a bat named Mister Kitty for my mom. Heh.

Those salad tongs are too cute! Too bad I already have 4 sets of salad tongs I almost never use.
