I am not a fan of birthday singing in restaurants. My mother loves it though. and she can't sing worth a damn.
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

[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.
Every time I go to a family-type restaurant, somebody gets a birthday song. I don't know if there are just a lot of birthdays celebrated in Applebee's-type places, or if I'm cursed. My friends/family know better than to do that to me; I don't like being the focus of attention like that.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Your character arc has been impressive, Mr. Tea.
I'm like the anti-Wesley!
Thanks everyone. I am pleased to report that this morning Ryan was full of smiles and pats on Daddy's back, until Daddy had to go to work, when they were replaced by the tears of betrayal.
Oh, while I think of it, happy Independence Day! I hope aliens don't blow up the White House.

Hey, we get a day off for Australia's Federation. And for the Queen's birthday. And a frakkin' horse race. Not to mention two days off for both Easter and Christmas. Oh, and mandated four weeks' annual leave.
Seriously, if ever a Prime Minister got assassinated, the reaction of most of the country would be, "So do we get a day off for this?"

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.

GSDs have such soft, soft, supremely nommable ears. They're better than baby toes, in my book.

Pthffteh. Fuzzy.
Still, I have to agree with consensus, bt, and thank you for sharing your joy. It's a wonder to behold, and the reflection warms us all.
Also, Kaylee is a lovey girl, and I'm glad she and her humans have found each other.

A truer thing has ne'er been said.
Many things as true, but this is So. True.
