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
I, too, have had the "driving from the backseat" dream!
I frequently have had what is now The Toyota Dream. That I drive my friend's Prius when we go on road trips is something I will not let stress me out, dammit -- I rode in my Grandmother's Pinto for years and didn't explode even once.

My mom let me get my ears pierced when I was 13 and my dad flipped. They were divorced and I lived with mom, but he still freaked. He was going to take me and a friend skiing for my birthday and he cancelled the trip. Yes, I'm still bitter.

Trust my rage
Which I made for her, and it was perfect, and crispy and yummy and, and, and double-yolked. And she tried one taste of the yolk and pronounced it yucky and it is breaking my heart.
They look so pretty but I have to agree with Matilda on this one.
I've had the teeth crunching dream. Always freaks me out!

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 used to have these dreams where I could almost fly. Like I would take a running jump... and just sorta will myself to continue on flying just over the ground.
When I was a kid, I used to have this recurring dream where I had a small, pedal-powered F4U Corsair (a WWII Navy fighter). In those dreams I could just make it off the ground but had trouble getting high enough to clear the trees. Weird.

“Not dead yet!”
I have Rocky Top brownies cooling for the 6th grade sock hop tonight.
I'm going to take all of them to the school as quickly as possible.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Woohoo, looks like my doctor will not make me come in just to get my prescriptions renewed. Fingers crossed.

Given that it's a common "not until you're X age thing", I would think there should at least be notification.
Of course, her ex is an ass so I'm not surprised. He has continued to fight the custody agreement at every turn (to the point where he loses more every time because he is so unreasonable). And then he violates it anyway.

Just talking about losing-teeth dreams is freaking me out. Notice I was ignoring it!
Ear piercing is such an interesting thing in terms of when people think it's okay for it to be the kid's decision. I've kinda arbitrarily made it a house rule that Casper can get her ears pierced when she's 10 (figuring she'll be old enough to be responsible for caring for them then.) By 13 I'd have thought it would be the child's choice, not anything the parents would have a say in (assuming we mean regular earlobe piercing, which is pretty standard - I know a lot of infants with pierced ears because it's so standard in their culture.)
