Can I throw a tantrum now?
Yes, you have earned one this week.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

[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.

The fact that he would even mention such a thing!
Seriously! I think he wants to blame our current plumbing issue (the shower!) on me -- and if it does turn out to have to do with my use of toilet paper, I will have to leave the country. Or possibly commit ritual suicide. But failing that... Christ, Dad, by biology (or at least social habit) I'm going to use toilet paper much more often than you do, and also I DON'T WANT TO DISCUSS THIS GO AWAY THANK YOU.
Now. Tantrum?

Our wings are not tired.
Tantrum away.
Also, 3 squares of TP per visit is all you need, missy. I have no memory of who told me that, but I do remember being, huh? It could have been my parents since we had 3 girls.

TOTALLY.
Tantrum?
Watching kiddos this week while their parents are on a cruise. I will need a cruise after this week. Love 'em, but holy cow, the tantrums have gotten out. of. control. So, I want to throw one now.
I walked out of the school after dropping them off this morning and said, "Freedom!" One of the moms (the art teacher, who I know and really like) was like, "Oh, yes. Yes. You are one of us now."

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

You so are. From the moment you dropped a kid off in your PJs.

vw, those kids have it all backwards. They're supposed to save up all of those tantrums to torture their parents with when they get home to punish them for daring to go on vacation.

Yup. I'm SO never gonna live that one down. I makes me laugh and laugh. And now I'm gonna think of it every time I wear those jammies.

Now tagless for your comfort.
You are one of us now.
BWAH! Yes.
I will need a cruise after this week.
Why do you think I went to Vegas?
Emily's apparently my sister. Or at least her dad is channeling my dad.

Emily, I am mortified, and I've never even met your Dad.
Do not want!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Poor Emily.
vw, I hope the parents bring you a nice prezzie in addition to whatever they are paying you.
