I like the blue one too, Laura.

[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.
I'm starting to think Connie's hubby is the model for Dos Equis "most interesting man of the world" ad campaign.
Heck, I haven't even mentioned the surfing and snorkling in Hawaii and crewing the tall ship from San Diego to Thailand. Tall blond American teenager with a pass to free military transport in the 70s, the world was his oyster. Also, he was told at age 14 that his degenerative joint disorder would likely kill him by 30, so his folks figured he ought to have as full a life as he could before then.
I'm delighted that hubby doesn't believe what he is told.
Back from mechanic, recall sitch sorted, car is ready for road trip to Florida! I am looking forward to this so much.
Pictures! Take lots of pictures so we can celebrate vicariously!
I promise pictures. Particularly the lazing on the beach variety.
So envious. Not in the cards for me this week unfortunately.
Hi, friends. I'm sorry to just jump in with HOLY SHIT stuff, but this is a safe place to say things that I can't in other spaces and I'm about to burst with this one! Two words: Dyke Drama! We are one of three two-mom families at Shane's preschool. Awesome, right? Well, today we got confirmation of something we kind of suspected. An affair has been going on between two of the moms in the other two families. Holy shit. And it seems like perhaps one of the moms had no idea this was happening, just found out in the last couple of days, and booted her cheating wife out of their house. DW and I are sad for the kids (5 kids total!) and angry. Angry because we are at a co-op school so we are all very involved with each other and are good friends (so we thought) and I can't believe they did this. Angry because irrational as it may be, we feel like it reflects badly on us as a lesbian-led family. Angry on behalf of the wronged spouses, and all of us who have been lied to for months.
I just can't quite wrap my head around it. The two who have been having the affair are both stay at home moms who have been totally dependent on their partners for money. Now they are moving in together, which just pisses me off for the kids (oldest kid is 7, youngest is 3). First they pull the kids out of their homes, away from their other parent, and now throwing them all together like they are a new family. Who does that? WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN???? It's just depressing. Also, what the hell do you say? I'm certainly not going to be like, "Oh, great! Congratulations!" You know what else? It's always the people who are like, "I love you sooooooooo much, snookums! We have the most perfect, special relationship on the plaaaaanet!" who break up in spectacular fashion.
Whew, I feel a little better just putting it out there. Good Lord, people!
I'm not sure brackets are the right response for that one.... maybe shots? After the kids are in bed, of course.
"Honey, if I wanted to live in a reality TV show, I'd have moved in next to the Kardashians."
edit: Maybe with a little "Bless your heart" thrown in, depending on what level of Southern "charm" you can put into it.
I had a customer from the Carolinas use that phrase in regards to the previous tech who tried to help her. She laughed when I snickered.
