Remember that sex we were planning to have, ever again?

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I am, once more, so very proud of my son. We were getting him ready for bed tonight. He has a simple routine. First, brushing teeth. He has two brushes, so he can hold one and we can still do our jobs. He's getting better at brushing for himself, and the other night he actually gave his mouth a proper swishy rinse afterwards. Then he runs off to find his grandparents and give them both hugs and kisses, giggling madly the entire time. After that it's to the bedroom, where we get him snuggled into his sleeping bag and sing his bedtime song. That was "Rock-a-bye Baby" until recently, now it's "The Wheels On The Bus". This has a new verse now, apparently after the babies on the bus say "Wah wah wah", we can expect the toddlers on the bus to say "No! No! No!" Ryan is very enthusiastic about this part. Finally he snuggles down in his cot with Bubby (his bedtime froggie) to go to sleep.

Anyway, on to the reason for my pride. Tonight, as we're getting him into his sleeping bag, Ryan is pointing at the foam numbers on his floor and naming them. "Two! Six!" Now, he can't quite say "Five" yet; it comes out as "Fart". That's fine, he'll pick it up eventually. Nonetheless, it turns out he's already figured it sounds different from him. He pointed at the five, said "Fart!"; and then looked at the two of us for a moment and fell about laughing. He was cracking up like nobody's business. (This, in turn, I found hilarious.)

I think Ryan just cracked his first joke.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think Ryan just cracked his first joke.

A fart joke and a math joke. Clearly a genius.

His interests are at once both highbrow and accessible. I see a bright future ahead of him.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

TOO CUTE, BT!

Man, I read your posts, and I think about 5 or 6 years ago, and I am just so pleased and happy for you.

You know, despite all the trouble your husband's ex causes, I feel much the same way reading your posts too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Happy birthday, Steph! 40 has been waiting longingly for you, because you make it look so good!

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

Happy Birthday to Teppy. May the day be as fab as she is!

Happy Birthday, Teppy! May it be awesome and fantastic and all the best adjectives you can think of.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Happy birthday, Teppy!

Happy Birthday Teppy!

And in "YAY" news, I emailed the gym last night and this morning they said 'Yes, we have your phone" WHEW!
