And What Barb Said.
It's clearly not her dog any longer. No matter what this says about the ex, he's your dog and you should get him fixed and stop letting her use the dog to wrench Dan around by the balls. I dislike the ex a lot about this.
Buffy: I was regrouping. Spike: You were about to be regrouped into separate piles.
'Potential'
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
So, worst comes to worst you can be all hardcore and have play time = crate time and show no love otherwise. It's painful to do, but its only for a few days. And having her crate trained IS SO WORTH IT.
Hmmm. t looks thoughtfully in Ryan's direction

You are not supposed to crate train a BABY!
This might be why I prefer pets.

Oh...um...er. Geez, I'm just gonna have to roll my eyes and say "Iceberg! Tip!" This is a fairly innocuous incident, but let's focus on the future, and not the past. I'm a lot more proactive and comfortable with saying "Fuck, no!" than Dan, and it's helping, I think, with his standing up to her. She's a steamroller, and I?
I, my friends, am the car crusher.
In a nice way!
But D's strengths play to my weaknesses, so we mesh. We mesh.
Oh, and has anyone seen that Smashbox has a new primer out? I have to try it! I am addicted to the regular Photofinish, my mom (who is ruddy) swears by the green tinted PF and my sis, who is oily, by the oil-free. The new one is meant to be used on problems areas and help with fine lines even more; I'ma dot it on my eyes the next time I cruise past a Sephora!
Was is Beverly or Tep who was talking up Eyebright the other day? I'm thinking about getting it, or getting the Realness of Concealness kit from Benefit for my mom for Mother's Day (don't laugh -- it's not a backhanded gift; all the women in my family are makeup whores.) The RoC has Lemon-aid, Eyebright, boing boing concealer, lip plump and high beam minis -- I thought it would be a fun way for my mom to test them out and she what she liked.
OH -- by the way, let me TOTALLY PIMP Smashbox's Eyelights shadow pallette in Beam -- I got it for my wedding, and it has the most perfect light yellow-white shimmer shadow, which neutralizes dark shadows and lifts the eyes, the best glimmery light gold-taupe that wakes you up and makes green/blue/hazel eyes pop, and a glinty cocoa for lining/crease for winter/going out looks. It's truly a perfect neutral collection that I am using the hell out of for day and night both. Worth every damn cent. Can't remember who was looking for non-makeup-y makeup, but this is magic.
Also? Sephora makes Clinque's black honey in a not-sticky gloss that is moisturizing. That, mascara, a swipe of the yellow and the gold shadow and mascara are a 1 minute perfect face.

My biggest ish's are Do Not Fuck With The Kids and also critters. So this totally sticks in my craw and makes me snarl. Admittedly, it comes on top of previous things you've mentioned. But she's also messing with her kid and the dog (and you guys, big time) simultaneously.
I figure that Dan is sadly an adult that has to deal with his ex but the kid is too young to be in control and the dog doesn't have opposable thumbs.
I am really glad that your strengths and weaknesses mesh. It's a wonderful thing.
Plus? Your wedding pictures were so gorgeous. I said it before but congratulations. I am really happy for you both.

Ooh, I wasn't looking but I like the sound of this. Must check it out.

But how can we be sure if we don't try?!
Actually, he got a baby tent for his birthday party. We tried putting him in it and he burst into tears. We seem to have a free-range baby here.

Look, there are all SORTS of things we aren't SUPPOSED to do...

Gotta be tough with 'em, William. Apparently there is this thing called "blanket training"...

The status is NOT quo.
Have you broken it to him yet that he is not, in fact, a single lady?

Blanket training is fun to mock.
Frankly, however, if I lived somewhere dangerous or didn't have a stable home it would be a damn handy way to keep your child safe(r).
