Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

[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.

Diapers.

Cloth! I still have all of Dylan's, some of which were originally mine. (Ditto wipes - some of my cloth wipes are now serving as hankies, but there are hundreds in storage along with all the newborn clothes.)

Formula doesn't last long enough even in powdered form to be worth registering for. Soap I buy in bulk from the organic coop.

Stuff for mama is always good, but for some strange reason babiesrus.com doesn't carry gin OR olives...

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

Jessica, it's true, second babies don't really need stuff in the way first babies do. But I say every baby deserves his or her own baby blanket.

Yup, my mom is knitting one. Ironically, the colors are going to be far less girly than the one she made for Dylan because the yarn she was planning to use was only available in blues & greens (Dylan's is lavender.) Heh.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Have scooped cat pans and taken out trash. Need to take over rent check while it's still light. Then I want to go to the grocery store and have dinner w/ Nancy when she gets off work, but I need to write evals. Still, would be a nice break and walk for Frankie.

(Oooh, I could register for replacement cups & tubes for my breast pump! Those might be weird, but they're all under $10.)

A nice new nursing bra? Of course, that costs a lot more than $10.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Sounds like you're getting lots done, smonster. Sorry about the itching, though.

Sorry about the glasses, Ginger.

I've made butternut squash ginger soup. It seemed right for a cold fall day.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

belly butter, baby shampoo/soap of a preferred brand too expensive for you to buy for yourself....

Dude, some kid just nearly called the pound on me for leaving Frankie outside the store for FIVE MINUTES. It's 50 degrees, he has a sweater, and oh yeah, fur. Am I nuts? That's acceptable; right?

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

It's 50? I don't see a problem with that. Is it crazy raining? Thunder and lightening? I mean, you could leave ME outside for five minutes in a sweater and I'm good. With no fur even.
