I think they sparkled.
See, Vera? Dress yourself up; you get taken out somewhere fun.

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’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Hugs to everyone, especially sj, my sister in mothering cranky preschoolers.

Thanks, juliana. We had a rough week, and yesterday ltc just started crying about how she misses her old teachers. My heart was breaking, and I don't know how to make it better.

{{moms}} Yes, the heartbreak when your kids hurt never ends no matter how old they get.

It was an arrow to the heart the first time Nick and Kara said they hated me. By the time Aidan got around to it, though, it was pretty old hat.
sj love, received and replied.
I'm working. I do proofreading for the court reporting company my little sister works for. It's an easy way to make a little extra cash from home.

I have permission, and it deserves its own post:
Kara came out to me this summer. Since she'd been talking about having a crush on a girl online, I thought she already had. She didn't realize, I guess, and was all sweaty-palmed and nervous. She had a boyfriend (because it was the thing to do, I think?) for a little while and did not like it at all. She has an online girlfriend now who lives in Wisconsin. She is such a sweet girl, I just gave her hugs and love and told her I was proud of her, and she asked me not to tell her grandparents or my sister since that would open her up to recriminations, and I'd have to step in and slap people down, and then we would lose our current detente, which would be okay if that's what needed to happen, but she doesn't want it right now.
Anyway, I think it deserves celebration. She's figured some things out! Yay! She's thoughtful and loving and makes good choices. Yay! So she said I could tell you guys, since you would never out her to her grandparents, even if you knew them.

Yay, Kara. I haven't seen you since you were ltc's age, but I love you to pieces.

Yay, Kara. I certainly understand her not wanting to deal with grandparents or other people who might not be supportive. You are supportive, which is what matters.
