Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I now have FlyLady open in another tab. I blame you all.

You're not the only one.

Congrats, VW!!!!!

Homemade pizzas of infinite variety and wine next door. And I learned to play Hearts! (No, seriously, we were never big on card games outside of UNO in my immediate family. So I can now play Hearts....and Solitaire.) Did passably well, once I understood the rules. Wedding coming up soon, they had their best man over too. I don't know if it is bride or groom's best man: he worked with the groom, was roommates with the bride so long they could be common law if they wanted. I realized who the bride's diction & accent reminds me of: Kat! Even some of the phrasings, it is so odd. They're from the Dakotas.

I've eaten so much the past couple of days, I think I'd be happy to just nibble on spinach the rest of the weekend.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

To be completely woman you need a master, and in him a compass for your life. You need a man you can look up to and respect. If you dethrone him it's no wonder that you are discontented, and discontented women are not loved for long. -- Dietrich, Marlene

Hmmph. Disappointing.

These are the ways to know if you eating it right. NSFW. Audio and video.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Aww, yay Kat msbelle gifties.

Dinner went well. Dave made yakiniku which they all ate except the littlest kid, who ate two bowls of salad with ginger dressing. And then the kids played Wii while we chatted. And we made kettle corn.

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

My niece's bday is coming up, and I was given a little wishlist by my SIL. All obnoxiously pink and sparkly princess stuff, which is fine, but boring.

I got her a full Wonder Woman costume with the red boots and the bullet-deflecting cuffs and tiara thing. It's a dress, pretty much with a cape attached. And a touch and feel Wonder Woman book that explains that Diana is a princess who catches bad guys and you can touch the golden lasso and shiny boots.

And a wonder woman plush doll.

My card will read, "Dear Neavie, Wonder Woman is my favorite princess. I hope you like her, too!"

This is manipulative, right?

There should be a krav maga Barbie. That would solve so many problems.

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

This is manipulative, right?

Totally.

And I approve. Seriously, she's into the pink princess thing because it is what she's exposed to to an extent. Expoose her to more. It might not be her thing in the end, but better she has options than not.
