You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Me either. Though it was weird when I started dreaming about being pregnant. It's happened a couple of times and kind of freaks me out.

Is this like those times when you dream you're eating a giant marshmallow, and when you wake up your pillow's gone because you stuffed it up your nightie?

Sean, you'd be an excellent daughter dad. I want a daughter (no desire for more children) also. I still think we should have a platonic love child and take turns with her. Or something less creepy. Just saying.

Hee hee! Hey, it's 2010, and we're in L.A. Stranger successful families than that exist.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

My biological clock strictly wants kids, perhaps because I am allergic to furry creatures, making me want to run from them more than anything. Even when I am babysitting G and he is being a complete brat, the clock keeps ticking.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Semi-skimmerson.

Double your congratulations, Rick!

My parents had 4 kids then started adopting until they'd reached 16. While I admire their desire to help kids who needed help, my personal experience has been that no parent can give enough love and attention to that many kids.

I once thought I wanted kids but I knew I wasn't mature enough when I reached the age at which my mom gave birth to me. Then, with time, I realized I wasn't mature enough partially because of some serious dysfunction in my family. I realized I really had better not have kids unless I wanted to keep that dysfunctional cycle going. I know I made the right decision. Honestly, it's taken me an ungodly time to try to get my own shit together and try to re-parent myself. It's still a work in progress.

Sorry the pediatrician's office is full of bungholes, Miracleborns.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Another thing I've noticed about Pennsylvania, or at least this part of it: people here are really, really nice. When I was going to all the different offices on campus, there were a bunch of times that I had to stop and look at a map or directory quizzically, and every time, someone came up to me within about five or ten seconds to ask if I needed help.

Wow.

16, that's a lot of kids.

{{miracleborns}} Parenting is tough stuff.

My parenting attempt on a one on one basis this summer has been a complete and utter failure. I drop Brendon at the airport Saturday. I feel like I am giving up, but I don't have anything left to try. He has to go forth and succeed or fail on his own now. The only thing that is keeping me from being devastated and brokenhearted is that I am depleted of emotion at this point.

It is good to hear things are going well, Hil. Don't know exactly where you are, but when I lived in Pittsburgh I had continuous positive experiences with the locals. Loved that place. If it had an ocean I would have stayed forever.

Boo for cloud cover. Want to watch meteors!
