And now he's staring at the doorframe into the kitchen, about 3 feet up. Freaky.

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

something about saying the fetus has full rights when the first heartbeat is detected

Even *if* I gave them the heartbeat makes for human and not just cells with potential, that fetus has no critical thinking skills.

I fully support the linking to stories, msbelle.

And if it is a mouse, I've got one confirmed killer, right?

Yes. And I would like to borrow said killer. I heard something the cats ignored but they might just be mad I had them in jail for over two weeks. I swear, I heard something.

Devi is my killer. Not really meaning to be (she plays with them until they die of shock or trauma) but she is effective... Loki is unproven. But really intent on that wall.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My stupid cat is absolutely no use with mice. Annoying!

I still haven't said anything to the upstairs neighbors cause I'm a wimp.

Whenever there is a particularly loud thump Miss Kitty looks up at the ceiling. I guess that means I should get my act together and say something. Maybe I'll write a note and leave it on their doorstep.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Eleven year old daughter of a friend: "Elementary school girls tend to find dogs cute and as an elementary school girl, I find dogs cute--especially little ones." pause. "According to a study at Harvard...."

At that point Daddy was laughing too hard for her to continue. After that, according to her Daddy: "Then she engaged me in discussion on hearing loss and decibel levels, followed by the Bechdel test (Hannah Montana passes)."

OK, now he's got his nose pressed to the old school phone jack (4 holes.) Hrm.

It's weird being the only grownup commenting on my teen's posts. And the only one not using chatspeak. And then having my comment "liked" by a lot of her friends. I DO feel terribly adult, witnessing all that teenage drama, but don't feel like I've got any street cred but I was one, anyway. And lord knows it felt So Important at the time. And really, maybe they like having an adult who isn't an authority figure. Who is a ...role model, without authority? Heeeheehee!

Good going sara! I think all teens need someone like you in their lives.

Sounds like an awesome small human!

So true. I think it's why I am a good aunt. Even when I have some authority*, I am not an authority figure.

*Still can't make Nephlet do his fucking math homework...

I never thought I'd relate to teens. And honestly, I see mobs of them and even overhearing them, I want to scream. But this is my teen and her friends. I adjust, I am changed.
