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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Will do. And I will call the doctor about this. Thanks, y'all!

Teppy, I just ordered that probiotic you recommended at drugstore.com, and it is on sale right now fwiw.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

It's been hella cold lately, and I walked to work because my car was in the shop (I'm a horrible person, but when it's 30 degrees, I'm driving). Due to the aformentioned walking, I wore pantyhose under my pants to keep warm. It was unnecessary, as it is now 46 degrees outside. So, yay warmth, boo being hot.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Aims, it's probably not going to be much comfort to you in the near future, but Emeline's response to the teacher shows she's smart, she thinks fast and she has a good grasp of human nature. Ultimately, I bet you'd rather have that child than a sheep. Thinking back to myself at that age, I wonder if she's bored.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

And also, Emeline lied to her! Teacher asked her if her parent's saw the note home and Emeline told her, "Oh they saw it and they don't care how I act in school."

!!!!! Totally normal for her age, but still kind of face-slappy when you hear that your own kid is doing it.

That's normal for her age? Seriously? I thought they'd be MUCH better liars by five. That is a shit lie.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've read that was made up by Gary Larson (the Farside guy), but apparently now it's a real term?

I thought they'd be MUCH better liars by five.

Most kids don't develop the capacity to lie until 3 or 4, so it's not like they's have a whole lot of practice by 5...

See, I think that's an excellent lie. It has pathos. It has drama. It has originality.
