I'm glad you were able to talk to your mom after her accident, Barb. And congrats on the award!
I got together with amyth, smonster, and a couple of other friends to carve pumpkins tonight. [link]
[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.

Punkins!
Oh, yes, Barb, sending ~ma for your mom.
Apparently trying to be friends with a potential future wife is verboten. It is just Not Done. That is what got her parents in a tizzy. I guess I can see how it all went wrong, but it's still stupid. I said I didn't want to meet the girl when I came home for Thanksgiving, and I didn't want to hear about any more girls. So they will tell everyone I'm not interested and ponder where they went wrong and why they're such bad parents. Meanwhile, I need to fall madly in love with a nice Gujarati girl very soon to get them off my fucking back.
Great pumpkins, Calli. Was there a stencil for the Jack Skellington one? I'd love a Skellington pumpkin.

That won't get them off your back. Then it will be kids -- how many? How are you raising them? What about school? And they'll harp on your wife. And your qualities as a husband. You could let them pick somone and hand her to you in a sealed box, marry the sealed box, and they would still be on your back.
It's an awful thing, but they are staying on your back. Do the things that make you happy and ignore their gripeing as best you can. (I'm not saying that's an easy thing to do.)
I'm sorry this is so awful.
Someone collected them... Sexy Halloween Costumes That Shouldn't Exist.
That's very funny, WindSparrow!
Great pumpkins, Calli, smonster & amyth!
Ah, P-C, it sucks. I agree that standing firm is the best course. OTOH, I always worry because that's coming from my Western POV.
I sure know how to kill a thread.
This is the 3rd meeting of the Natural Resources & Environmental Commission that I’ve attended. After the last meeting I attended, I was really depressed because the legislation the city wrote up seemed very onerous to me. I couldn’t see myself having the $$$ and energy to get things off the ground. Though I knew the NREC was pro-garden, it seemed to me that the city itself was putting up a lot of roadblocks.
This time I came with a bunch of printouts about how other cities/counties have handled the legal issues involved in having community gardens. I reiterated the issues I had with the legislation. I said I figured there had to be some way to address the city’s and neighbors legitimate concerns about liability and possible problems without making it so hard to get the proper permits that no one can afford to do it. This time I think some of the councilors got my concerns and they seem willing to take a look at the legislation again and make recommendations to the City Council as to how it should be changed.

I'm not sure. I don't think smonster was working from a stencil, but there may be one out there somewhere.
