I wonder how old they have to be before they can be really useful minions.

At 15 and 21 my minions have been doing their jobs for me tonight. I am sick. Icky sick. And they have been great about taking care of me.

Congrats, Kate. And I hope the morning sickness passes quickly.

Our wings are not tired.

Kids really are an instant way to meet other people.

Yep. All of the parents at my party, for instance, instantly had something in common. It was great to see them mingle (especially when little Roman started to kiss all of the other kids...).

The three year old I babysit for loves fetching things for me and throwing things away in the trash when I ask him to and has for at least a year. His favorite birthday gift this year was a brightly colored broom and dustpan.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Meep! KateP!

I have a silly question. Do you suppose someone has pitched a series about internet fans? And the only interaction they have is on an internet message board? You'd see them individually, and the writers and actors (but never any of the actual show) and then show fans reacting to it and to each other? (i.e. if fans are discussing the physics of a show and one says, "yeah, but you're not rocket scientist" and then we see the other guy posting from a cubicle at JPL)

Should I get working on a spec script?

I asked Olivia to get me a Diet Coke from the fridge this summer and she asked, "does that make me your bitch?" Minionhood depends on the kid, I think.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Congrats Kate P!

Now tagless for your comfort.

She and Owen watched some Lego Batman movie on Youtube this summer and came to me and told me, in all seriousness, that Alfred was Batman's bitch.

When I asked Olivia what "bitch" meant, she said, "someone who gets you stuff." We resolved that by explaining that Alfred is Batman's butler. Now when I ask her to get something for me she says, "Why am I everyone's butler???"
