BUILDINGS SO OLD, ALL THE PLUMBING IS ON THE OUTSIDE!

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.
yay for Sean having fun!
And last year, in Seattle, Fay told me a story about being younger and reading about an American stripper wearing a pasty and wondering why ... and how she didn't get crumbs all over her chest.
I, of course, can't tell it right, but it had me doubled over laughing in the middle of the street (never tell a funny story while crossing the street).
got to watch a changing of the guard,
I thought that was pretty cool, actually.
over to Wesminister Abbey (WOW! JUST WOW! PARTS OF THE BUILDING OLDER THAN THE NORMAN CONQUEST!!!!)
I meant to recommend that yesterday, so I'm glad you went. It's *amazing.*
I wonder if I'll ever get to London in my lifetime. I'm just happy when I can get out of state.
I second that emotion. Aims, your MIL was being a PITA...maybe not on purpose. Sean, if I traveled with my stepmother one of us would not come back.(I wouldn't care which.) She thinks complaining loudly about the decline in a place makes her sophisticated.
..maybe not on purpose.
There is no doubt that it was not on purpose. She was expressing her want for more grandkids. She just ... well, she doesn't get to do that. Sorry.
I just turned down an interview. It was a job that looked good in the ad, but not so good after I found out more about it during the phone interview. Plus, the person interviewing keeps calling me at the wrong number and emailing me at the wrong address, even though I've given him the right one several times, and then get tells me that he doesn't understand why I'm not getting back to him. And they want me to go to Savannah for a campus interview next week, with me paying my own expenses.

Yeah....no. Sounds like the right call to me, Hil.
Yes. Gross, Aims. Boundaries, much?
She was expressing her want for more grandkids. She just ... well, she doesn't get to do that. Sorry.
I think I skimmed, or my brain is fried -- does she *know* that more grandkids aren't possible? Because if so, WOW is she insensitive! And inappropriate.
If not, well, then she's just being thoughtlessly gung-ho in a space that isn't hers, which is *still* an issue of Boundaries, Learn Them NOW.
Either one sucks, and I'm sorry it happened.
