Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

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

Yes, I would love this in a baby.

Well, for the record, Emmett is now taking BART and Muni home from school in the East Bay.

It only took ten years of commuting across the Bay Bridge. See how easy...

Toilet training! Another EXCELLENT reason to avoid parenthood, and I'm not even kidding.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Holy hell, I never want to go back there!

Matilda was toilet trained by her daycare provider. So you can pay for this service.

Yes, one of the reasons I don't have pets is because I refuse to live with anything that doesn't know how to use and flush the toilet on its own.

Daycare providers aren't around on weekends.

My BFs 3 year old daughter often wants me to be the one to take her to the bathroom. I have had to drawn the line at poo. Crazy aunts don't do poo.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

idek, amyth. I went from "OMG, I'm about to be fined heavily for not having insurance" to "should I tell him that I shotgunned once in college and it freaked me out"?

I cannot tell you how relieved I am to have power. I was in such a serious bad mood about the state of affairs, I almost bailed on dinner with the neighbors (but I'm really glad I went after all, though I probably wasn't stellar company.)

My two gallons of peaches needed to be cooked up and I knew I wasn't going to get around to it, so I gave them to my neighbor who was planning on making up some stewed fruits and syrups tonight. We'll split the results of her cooking and I'll get some new fresh peaches for fall freezing.

I've always known I'd be a very good parent. I adore kids and interact with them well, even as disciplinarian. But I don't really want to be a parent. I'm good with that. I don't know how not to be single and I don't have any desire to change that.

I'm still excited about it and it's been two days! My friend who STILL has no power is here now using some of mine. I'm so happy to be able to share!

I toilet trained myself when I was 18 months old. I'd expect any child of mine to do the same, dagnabbit!
