OMG. That would be kind of awesome. But then, think of the newbies.

whose? TV Tropes? Is it wrong if I don't care? We all had to learn it...why shouldn't they? I should sic David Simon on him...they could have a war of words that lasted for *years*, I mean, unless my fictional husband wanted to destroy him early and put out his corpse as a warning to others.(Um, not that I fantasize about it or anything. But it's still kind of news to Simon(And his shiny...well, actually, fucking grimy and downbeat, new blog, that people talk a lot of crap on the internet. I think he would HATE knowing how much worse it could get and that he took my and several others' Wire-love in vain to spread his bullshit.)

Ok, so. Eve Ensler is flying into Lansing on Monday and along with a bunch of female members of the state legislators is doing a performance of The Vagina Monologues at the capitol building. I totally want to go, and I think it would be fantastic for Em, but I admit I am worried a bit about the language in the monologues.

Would I be shirking my motherly duty in teaching her that her ladyparts aren't a dirty word and shouldn't be considered thus if I drop her at my sister's house nearby and go?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Nah, it's pretty adult in various ways, as I recall.

Same here and there are certain things I am just not ready to explain yet.

Pro: Good experience, probably a good memory even if she doesn't know what it all Means yet. Con: Might be hard to explain that they say stuff she can't say in school and at Grandma's. Analysis: It's probably good I don't have kids right now.
