I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

[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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Kids are way easier to keep alive than plants. For one thing, they tell you when to feed them.

Though kids, like plants, can start turning a little brown if water is not applied often enough.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Having Sock Dreams on my fb feed is hazardous to my fiscal health. Which is already not so good. Speaking of, my boots and shoes got here yesterday! The boots are awesome. The shoes may not fit me: in which case, since they are unreturnable, I may be putting them up for grabs for what I paid for them.

Operation Be Productive is not going so well. Bah.

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

{{{Aims}}} I hope you can figure out something that works for both you and Em. Keep in my that she is also somewhat young for kindergarten by today's standards (she wouldn't have made the cut off around here which is birthday by September) so it may take her longer to mature into being able to learn how to behave in a classroom.

Our wings are not tired.

"Oh they saw it and they don't care how I act in school."

Poor thing, you got one of my kids by mistake. Mine never did straighten up in school. Did I ever show you the link to my son Brendon misbehaving in school on YouTube? Yes, when they get to high school they record their shenanigans on their cell phones and upload to YouTube.

I figure it is all karma for my misspent youth. They are good boys and I do my best to make them do what their teachers say, but it is really hard.

Bobby I did end up pulling out and putting back in the next year because he was borderline age and really wasn't ready. He is a late August birthday.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

The shoes may not fit me: in which case, since they are unreturnable, I may be putting them up for grabs for what I paid for them.

smonster, if this turns out to be the case, would you mind reminding me what shoe size you wear? Because your taste in shoes and boots is great, and if you're 8.5-9 US, we might be able to work something out at media night.

I'm back in LA. Yay! Now to get my car and head back to Pasadena.

I am an 8.5/9, as it happens. They're a bit wonky - my feet slide forward so my toes hit the end, but it's tight over the instep. Also, the slingback falls off b/c my feet are so far forward. I will likely experiment with inserts and such and then let you know.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I am now registering Emeline for Activities. So far, we've got a youth cooking class (which she loves doing) on Monday evenings.
