Cordelia ,'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Pouting is pretty much the powerless child's only weapon. I say this as a very pouty child with a micromanaging mother--a far different experience than Mac has had in a world he's had *no* control over. But I can see where the pouting comes from. That you're giving him choices--albeit choices he doesn't like--is the best thing you can do to empower him.
Standard poodles are great dogs.
So the Obamas have narrowed it down to a poodle or a Portuguese water dog.
I read it was Labradoodle or Portuguese water dog.
Oooo, presidential puppy-cam.
I changed to the 14th Annual Critics' Choice Awards just in time to see Heath Ledger win the supporting actor award. If he wins the Golden Globe there will be weeping in this house.

My therapist had a Portuguese water dog. Nice dog, very even-tempered. (She brought him to the office to help out with the patients.)
I had a nice brunch with a friend after I convinced her that wasting two hours on a movie when I'm leaving town so soon would not be the best idea. I also convinced her to take a lot of my stuff as "donations" to the KC Rep. I'll get rid of the stuff and a tax deduction!
Unfortunately, I am feeling really crappy. After we loaded her up, I wanted to take a nap, but I sold my couch yesterday! So, I laid down on the floor and dozed for awhile. Moving is hard enough without a cold on top of it. *sigh*
Tomorrow, I take the car in to make sure it is highway travel-worthy. I normally avoid the interstate at all costs. Then I need to deal with the unemployment office.
Beverly - thank you for the comment. The pouting started progressing and he tried to trip me at one point, bad choice on his part as I had a bottle of water in my hand and as I got my balance I stood right over him (he was lying on the floor) and pour it on his tummy. It lightened the mood and we have had a fine night since.
Network pre-GG coverage is on. I had hoped to watch the even longer TVguide channel coverage, but I played 2 games of Sorry with mac instead. He beat me fair and square both times.
I love America Ferrera's dress from the waist up. From the waist down, meh.
They time-shift it for the West Coast? No fair.
