Nora, is this another job at the school, or someplace else?
Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[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.
At the very least I have a reason to saunter (stagger) around work with my cool cobalt-glass-ball-and-snakes-and-skull-headed cane. Hubby keeps promising to take two inches off the end so it's the proper length, but oh well.
Canes can also be used for a judicious thwapping, when necessary. Being too long is a problem for walking, but it does give you a little extra reach.
The new nephew has been named Zachary. I can't wait to meet him.
I like this name. It has a certain breeziness to it.
If we have another boy, Joe likes the name Zachary.
Cute story. When the almost 3 year old big sister M was introduced to her baby brother last night she was also given a Dora the Explorer backpack. Afterwards Grandma said, ''The little brother is cooler than the backpack.'' And M responded, ''I don't think so.''
Aww, M will likely come around. Although Brendon still finds his little brother annoying.
I think it is going to be a while before M comes around. Her mom is coming home early from the hospital because M is freaked not to have mom home.
That was the hardest thing for me when Frisco was born. Ellie liked him for the first 24 hours but then she was ready to return him and have mom's attention again. Thankfully, Joe and my mom did a great job of keeping her occupied.
I'm so sorry for your loss, GC.
And Sparky, I didn't quite put it together before that Kalliope was born on May 18th. That was my mother's birthday. It's a good day to be born.
