Phone Menu Voice ,'Conviction (1)'
[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.
Thank you, Cindy.
sj, you are already a wonderful parent. And Laura and everyone are wise.
I too wanted to have a drink and celebrate Ginger yesterday, very much. Sadly, that didn't happen. Please let me know if you would like me to set a Google Hangout thing, like we had after ita's death.
And I still can't grasp that there will never be new Ginger pixels on this board again; that there is no Ginger anymore. I don't want this to be true.
sj, I believe the best response would be a faintly puzzled slight smile and, "Why do you ask?"
Forced to justify the question, the person might be jogged into realizing it's intrusive, presumptive, and rude. You're under no obligation to answer at all, of course.
sj, I believe the best response would be a faintly puzzled slight smile and, "Why do you ask?"
I agree with Bev; that's the perfect response.
sj, ltc is so lucky to have you and TCG as parents.
Cindy, that was lovely. What Sail said.
Shir, I would love to have a Google Hangout like last time.
Whenever I consider changing my tag I hear stories like sj's and decide I still need the reminder. People! I just don't understand them sometimes, often.
Beverly, that is of course the best response. Thanks,everyone.
ltc is finally taking a nap and I'm going to pray it lasts longer than a couple minutes and try to take one too. Still wiped out from all the badness.
amyth! Glad to see you posting. I sympathize with the anesthesia nausea. Last time I had a colonoscopy, the first thing I did after I woke up was barf. I'm going to request a virtual colonoscopy for the next one.
I got coloring books today -- so pretty .
Yay! Isn't Thea's art amazing?
I want to hug all of you right now. More than I usually do, which is a lot.
My cough is progressin to symptoms that are probably just allergies but annoying and making mE contemplating going home tomorrow. I have to drive and it sucks but I'm also worried about getting sick away from the comforts of home.
First of all, had I had a kid, getting that much attention in public, she might be like "Mama, why's that old lady eyefucking us?" and no question where she'd get that! Secondly, I know I'd make it worse, because that would embarrass me and activate all my not inconsiderable Chandler-Bing-Humor-In-The-Face-Of-Discomfort impulses so that I would say "Don't know, you're not from the news, are you?" Then in the time it would take to say "Lack of irony, Batman!", sproglette would get to see Mommy wait for the accessible paddy wagon(yes, we have a full fleet, due to a rather infamous ADAPT thing in the '80s...so progress/)
sj, I believe the best response would be a faintly puzzled slight smile and, "Why do you ask?"
I agree with Bev; that's the perfect response.
Ditto.
A friend adopted a Russian girl 16 (gulp) years ago. S has very Asian features and my friend got...for years..."Is she yours?"
Well meaning people, of course, but seriously? Like she somehow stole her baby?
Anyway. She used "Why do you ask?" a lot. Very effective.
