Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

Congratulations Rick! And, wow, you clearly need to stop by more, did we know about any of that??

My uncle meet his 5th wife at a pottery class! But not his current potential one. The current girlfriend he met in square dancing class.

Er, sounds like your uncle is way more enthusiastic about marriage and partnership that many of us buffistas. I think most of us are not looking for fifth or sixth husbands/wives...:)

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

Now we just have to figure out how each of us can spend 80 hours a week on our jobs and 80 more caring for out infant boys. So far the remaining 8 hours a week for sleep does not seem to be enough.

Each of you strap a papoose on your back and go about your business.

Also, congratulations, and wow!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Hey, I'm at my mom and dad's house, for the first time since I got married, and it's so nice. I'm done with my bigger freelance job, and I'm working on the smaller one in their dining room.

And hey, I got early bday prezzies! And a good night's sleep!

Because books.

Dude, YOU DO NOT CHECK IN HERE OFTEN ENOUGH. Just saying.

Right?! Wow, Rick, very cool news!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Congratulations Rick!

I just found out Thrill Kill Kult and Lords of Acid are playing a club down in Deep Ellum. Would that I were in my 20's again. There is no way after a full day of work and getting up at 5:30 tomorrow, I could ever dream of pulling off that show.

But, imagine going to work and someone saying "Whoa, you okay?" and you replying, "Yeah, I went to the Thrill Kill Kult and Lords of Acid last night." The look on their face would be awesome!

Congratulations, Rick! My hat is off to parents of twins. Babies are hard!

move out and draw fire

Congrats Rick!

but for a while strangers felt entitled to ask about potential children.

Dude. Random coworkers would come up to my DH (this is when we were like 24) and offer their condolences about our "problem." Upon his WTFproblem?!? it would become clear that they'd assumed since we were married, but childless, we medically couldn't have children and were upset about this.

Now, that was mostly in non-U.S. countries, but even here people, esp. Mormons, would simultaneously berate me for being too young to have the job I did, and too old to not have kids. I tended to think my job was a lot less important/valuable/whatever than parenting, but I've never been great with culturally-mandated life choices.

(Which is why I try not to get too talky about P-C's parents, also.)
