Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

[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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

How is that fucking possible?!

I've only mopped 2.5 rooms, and have 2 more plus the bathroom and wee hall. Goal for today is finish 2nd br and empty 1st br so I can start that one. Which won't take long, since there's just an air mattress and a suitcase in there.

Nora, NBD to me. K recognized the crack pipe burns. Don't suppose there's a way to cover those... I'll talk to R about maybe replacing it. Sometimes you can find surrounds at Habitat ReStores.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Live and learn, little girls. Live and learn.

I'm continually surprised at how long the learning takes. My girl is finally able to anticipate negative consequences some of the time, but my son? Just not there yet.

smonster - would bleach work? no idea how bad the burn marks are, but I've used the Clorox bleach pen on places where my hair stuff stains my shower/tub.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm continually surprised at how long the learning takes. My girl is finally able to anticipate negative consequences some of the time, but my son? Just not there yet.

Especially when two of the kids aren't yours and don't inherently know your house rules. For instance, the two girls I'm watching don't have to clean their rooms on a regular basis so when I start asking them to clean up at the end of the day, they look at me like I have two heads.

Plus, I'm also learning to deal with the conniving which I assume one gets used to when you have more than one kid. Em is a total failure at conniving - she usually employs the oft tried method of hiding things behind her back and looking exceptionally guilty, while edging along the wall with her back to it. Dead giveaway, every time. With three of them, it's harder to tell when something's going down.

Toddson, I hate bleach so I didn't want to buy a gallon of it just to try this, but the bleach pen is a great idea. I need it for a stained shirt, anyway.

Well, it can't hurt ... much. And it might help. Also, since it's thick, it'll stay where you put it.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

erin_o, sending good vibes to your sister, and to your whole family. It's a tough situation with no easy answers.

So, I have pink eye. Therefore I have today off work, so I can become less contagious, and also find some way of keeping my damn fingers out of my nasty, germy eyes. I may resort to writing Mentalist fanfic.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

So many kids at the airport. I fear a few of the ones melting down are going to be on my flight.

But I can get taquitos in a couple of hours. Or three hours. There are future possible tauitos, basically.
