Jonathan ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
[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.

The google-fu is mighty in the thread.
I'm thinking of starting up my ancestry.com subscription again. I still think it's outrageously overpriced, but I'm ready to start trying to track down more of the Campbells back into Ontario. I can find cousins in MI that my dad remembers, but I can't seem to find the link between them and my great grandmother. Frustrating.
I'm back from vacation! And I fully admit that I skipped all but the most recent 50 posts. We didn't have the interpipes at the beach (I think the sharks clogged up the pipes), so there is no way I could keep up.
From the last 50, I see that P-C had a good date (HELL YEAH!!!!), and the state of Michigan is fucking evil.
Did I miss anything else good/bad/monumental?
Well, it is never as funny around here when you're gone.
Awwww, thanks!
I'm currently laundering about 10 TONS of sand out of our clothes and towels, and as soon as I finish my PB&J, I'm taking the car to get washed/vacuumed, because it, too, has 10 tons of sand (also salt, which is hell on the exterior).
Soooooo glad I took today off as part of my vacation request.
Happy Birthday, Seska! You birthday tweets were cracking me up!
I'm a Campbell. As recently as my paternal grandmother.
Birthday Happies Seska!!
my paternal grandmother.
My maternal grandmother!!
We're totally related! I just KNOW it!!
Happy Birtday, Seska!
WooHoo, date, P-C!
I'm so, so sorry, Aims, and I have my steel toes at the ready if you want 'em.
Welcome home, Teppy!
There's a SC writer who posits that in the south, we name things like streets and housing developments for the things we cut down, diverted, or bulldozed to make room: Twin Oaks, River Run, The Willows, etc.
P-C, I'm thrilled you had a good date!
Happiest of birthdays to Seska!
Aimee, what polar bears. I'm so sorry. I will send vibes your way that you will find a way to get this erased.
Welcome back, Teppy!
Kaylee continues to be painfully cute and a total devil puppy, which is par for the course at 4.5 months old. We are working on bite inhibition (sometimes I think I've adopted an alligator) and not barking at/chasing Seamus (the other cats won't put up with it and are fine, but my poor little boo gets scared and runs away), but she's generally a good girl. I can't wait until she gets her final vaccination in two weeks so I can take her to doggy daycare from time to time for socialization and exhaustion. Our local PetSmart has a great program--only $14 if you leave your dog for less than 6 hours--and boy oh boy will I be taking advantage of it once I can.
My most recent Campbell in the line was born in 1813 and married into the Parkers. But unless your Campbells were from Ayrshire, probably not a lot of chance of us all being long-lost cousins. Woe!
