If I don't get my ass into bed now, I'm gonna regret it tomorrow.
Night, all!
I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

I bought a whole mango from a fruit market in Galveston this weekend. It was heavenly.

Grace gets mangoes about once every two weeks. And while that doesn't sound like a lot, keep in mind, whenever she has a food in a blend, that's her food for 5 meals or so. Noah likes the mangoes too. I'm sure they aren't like Jamaican mangoes, like the pineapples here aren't like Maui Gold, but they are still pretty good.

YOU CANNOT "GET YOUR VAGINA WAXED."
At least not for depilatory purposes. The odds of someone being into it for other reasons are >0.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a fear of the unknown. I don't know any of the varieties, and they aren't listed by varieties, so it's not like I can learn. Imagine if all that was sold was "apple." Too confusing.
I mean, when I want an actual mango, I want Bombay or East Indian, or Julie, or sometimes even Stringy. It's specific. And I doubt those names are used anywhere outside of Jamaica.

Well, I don't know about CANNOT. But I'm pretty sure that'd be a special request.

I'm still mad at "The Vagina Monologues" too. If you're going to have a whole damned show celebrating the pussy, get yer anatomical language down right.
The vag is one INSIDE part of the whole she-bang (hee). It's NOT the entire area.
This may be a slight pet peeve of mine.

So I'm guessing the term vajazzling gets your goat too, Erin?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
msbelle, I wholeheartedly agree with everything Erin said above Erin "Natter 66: Get Your Kicks." Aug 30, 2010 1:20:53 pm PDT
We work with our students on using their assignment notebook every day. It is totally an organizational skill that they need to learn. I used to give stickers to my advisory class on Fridays if they had filled out their notebook for every class each day. Even as 8th graders, they loved it. And, like Erin, if I had a student falling behind, I would work with the parent to have them do home checks of the notebook every day.
It's not a trust thing, it's an organizational skill that will help the student succeed in school.
