[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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Recovery~ma to your grandfather, P.-C.

That Rodney Carrington video made me choke on Mountain Dew. You do not want M.D. in your sinuses, just trust me on that.

Trust my rage

Okay, I am at Kindergarten orientation. The letter was clearly addressed to parents and said nothing about bringing your kids. So i didn't bring Ellie because there is another screening next week for kids. Of course, everyone else has their future kindergartner with them. I have already failed school-age parenting.

Punishingly Intricate

I have already failed school-age parenting.

You did not fail!! They failed at clear communication!

There is a dude behind me taking notes on an ipad. @@

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I think you win at not being a helicopter parent. And reading comprehension.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I think it will be the last time you ever enter a school without your child and you should revel in it.

Don't worry, Ellie still has a chance at a normal life.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I think Ellie will not only survive this, she will be absolutely fine.

ImemememeNews, I ended up calling in sick today because when I left school last night (at 9:30!!), a piece of my car was hanging off the underside. I thought it was part of my exhaust system. Took it to the shop today and it turned out to be a loose heat shield (I don't know what that is, that's just what I was told). They put it back on and tightened it up and I was on my merry way in 10 minutes. Best part? Cost=$0. Yay!!! Easiest car repair ever!!

This needed to be repeated.
