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.

He's 9 now, and I can TOTALLY see the prepubescent attitude starting to flare up, but he's just testing boundaries, and I actually had a pretty good convo with his mom about it, and we seem to be on the same page about backing each other up when he tried to play the "I can't do this/I always do this" card.
That's huge progress!! And so key, too. Have fun with M!

I DO love him. It's not that total mom-love, you know; we don't see each other too often, but it's love and protectiveness and a desire to see him be happy and learn and be a good person.

42 -- the number of hours it will take me to weed my garden the first day it goes below 85.
Oh! Yeah -- do I need to feed my tomato plant special tomato plant food, or will Miracle Grow work fine? I know there's special food for roses and tomatoes.
