Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

'First Date'


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.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

IOBabyNews, Dylan's been giving all of his toys baby brothers lately even though we (a) don't know the sex yet and (b) haven't said a word to him about there even being a new baby. (We're waiting until the anatomy sono, which is this afternoon.) I wonder if he knows something's up.

That's adorable. Hopefully he won't be too disappointed if you find out you're having a girl. Best wishes with the appointment.

I'm finally getting myself fitted for new leg braces tomorrow. I've been putting it off for two long, and my legs have been so swollen lately that the current ones are painful to wear.

Gender isn't his strong suit - I doubt he'd fully understand the difference. (Today he told me I didn't like to chew gum because I'm a woman, after a conversation with DH in which the intended distinction was kid vs grown-up but got a little lost in translation.)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hopefully he won't be too disappointed that you aren't having a grown-up.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

First, congrats, Jessica! - I think I missed your announcement while being away on test season.

And second, I'm back, and now I'm in a dilemma. While clearly there's a disagreement going on here, I'm OK with leave it at that. I recognize that the root of the problem is in my wording, and I think that if I write a new post with my full view of the subject(s), it might be clearer (not necessarily more convincing - but more clear). But since we've reached a certain... pause? Equilibrium? (well, I know I'm in minority here, just can't find a better word), I don't know if it's worth to reopen the subject with more opinions, since I see it's a touchy issue. And it's OK.

But if anyone's still upset and/or hurt by my recent posts, I'd like to have the chance of explaining myself (not even here - emails are OK, too) and my views.

Signed,
Not a baby/mother hater, really

there are so many nick names to the genitalia, but not one to the uterus

Kid-sack?

I've got nothing useful to add to the rest of the discussion m

I can only speak for myself, Shir (OOH SEE WHAT I DID THERE?) but nothing anyone's said so far has been upsetting to me.

As for:

I don't know if it's worth to reopen the subject with more opinions

...have you MET us? Reopening subjects with more opinions is practically the Buffista mission statement.
