[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.

“Not dead yet!”

A LOLcat for Jilli.

Not just Jilli. I had my first experience yesterday with the Washington State wildlife phenomena known as Big Ass Spider in my bathroom. I turned into a total girl and make Lewis clobber it, although I then had to dispose of it, since he's squeamish about the aftermath.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

gluten-free frozen waffles are fine as long as you eat them quickly. They tend to firm up as they come to room temp. Better than the pancakes, as those get chewy (ick).

Oh dear. My sympathies, because yeah. We get some freaking huge spiders around here.

There's a show on TV about small children who swallow various objects or poisons, leading to medical emergencies. This is a different show than the one with the same exact premise that I watched a few months ago. Is there a production company out there that's just devoted to freaking out parents?

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.

Well, Windsparrow,I hope you have some peas

Yes, I do. And after all the trouble it was to get them in there, I for darn sure ain't taking them out again. See, what happened was, while putting frozen veggies in the freezer, I knocked over the plastic pitcher with the milk bag that was in the fridge. In the process of cleaning up the spilled milk, I over-extended the knee. Also? Later, when I decided to relax and enjoy re-watching some season 5 Buffy and drink some rich, chocolate Ovaltine, I managed to knock over the glass of milk.

Totally gives the lie to the slogan of the dairy industry. Milk, it doesn't do a body good.

Also, I think we are going to need a new mop.

Pretty much all of them. Except maybe Children's Television Workshop.

Now there's a show about "Radical Parenting." The "radical" philosophies they've looked at so far are unschooling and attachment parenting with extended breastfeeding. I think these people's definition of "radical" is different than mine.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Milk's like a ninja, it has to infiltrate the body first.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The "radical" philosophies they've looked at so far are unschooling and attachment parenting with extended breastfeeding. I think these people's definition of "radical" is different than mine.

What do you consider radical parenting, Hil? Or maybe "radical" isn't the right word, because I consider unschooling and extended breastfeeding (say, ~2 years) to be markedly outside the norm.
