Our first preview of the first show of the season just started. I'm sitting in my office with my foot propped up.
Anya: Are you stupid or something? Giles: Allow me to answer that question with a firing.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Mutual friend in the band is here and siting with me. Other friends are probably 5 min out. I almost finished a pint already. That is what happens is I am at a bar alone, I drink fast. No good.
It's going to be fine. You've got company and you had a drink. And friends are coming and the band will be on soon.
It's good to get out.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hope it ended up being fun, msbelle

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Looks like many if not all of the IDC get ousted from the Senate, so that is good.
I was so happy to see that

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I hate it when that happens, msbelle. I hope you ended up having a fun evening.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I don't know what ideas are lately for parents and kids about *bed* parameters, but would Mr. S be amenable to a "nest" in the corner of the room where the parents are where he could flop to sleep and not be consigned to the outer reaches of aloneville? Or is that frowned on?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Sheryl, we have ltc in a toddler bed in a very childproofed room with child safety handles on the inside of her door so that she cannot get out. She can get up, but she stays in her room. I don't know if that would be an option for you.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
sj, we put something on the inside doorknob that's supposed to keep kids from opening the door. He figured it out and now he gets out all the time. Other than putting a lock on the outside of the door(and we know that's not a good idea, safety-wise) we don't know what to do.

Would an open door with a gate work? Some of my friends do that. Duct tape around the toddler handles?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
We hold the door closed. Not the most elegant solution, but it works. We also instituted a sticker chart and a bedtime pass system. It took a while, but bedtimes now are much improved from just a month or two ago.
