bt, when he's old enough to handle the idea of predation, if you get a chance to take him to a live showing of Walking With Dinosaurs, do. I loved it; I felt like a kid, staring up at these life-size dinosaurs walking around and roaring at the audience. They don't really emphasize predation, but they don't pretend it didn't happen. It's a wonderful show.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.
Triceratops was my favorite dinosaur too.
I also loved rhinoceros when I was small. . . and they are kind of dino-looking mammels, aren't they?
Krotching. Oh my. I know some people just aren't good at spelling, but if it's a hobby one would think one could get a bit closer than that.
Mere words cannot express how I've looked forward to the day when I could talk to Ryan about such matters. And here it is.
billytea, my heart just grew three sizes reading that.
It's Monday, it's raining, I'm still sick (oh hai polka dotted tonsils), and our guidance on this new project is... scant, to put it kindly. Going to doc.
Aww, billytea. I just love reading Ryan stories. He sounds like such a sweetie.
BABY. I haven't cuddled a baby in a while. Hmm. Where can I find a baby... none of my friends here have a baby.
Come to Nashville! Though you might want to wait a week or two, until we're all moved into the new place. But seriously, it would be great to see you again, and you're always welcome in our house. (Also, boo for being sick! I hope you feel better soon.)

Aw, billytea, this is so wonderful to read. I adore your stories about Ryan, and it's so clear how much he loves you and how much joy he brings you. I am also eagerly anticipating the day when Rose is old enough to be so curious about the world. I expect I'll be asking you for some book recommendations when the time comes!
Kate, what's going on with your bedroom ceiling??
The sellers fixed it! They finished it on Friday, and paid for the repairs themselves. Such a relief. There's still some things we need to do before it's all ready, but hopefully nothing else too expensive. I had someone come in to test the air quality today, so we'll get the test results tomorrow or Wednesday, and then we need to finish painting, but that can happen after we move in if it has to. We've got movers coming on Friday, and have gotten a pretty good start on packing. Guess it's really happening!
Yay, Kate! That's great news. Tons of moving~ma headed your way.
Oh, what a relief!
Moving~ma, Kate! And I'd love to come visit, but I'm afraid it's not likely to be in the cards for a while.
Bacterial infection is the verdict. Steroid shot in ass, ABs, need to clean the mold out of my bedroom A/C, and probably get a dehumidifier. To console myself I am buying Fergie star glitter nail polish as I pick up my script.
