I keep pronouncing ita ! as ita "big intake of breath with wide eyes". Is that what we are meant to do?

Do we actually have to call you ita ! now, ita !?

See how nifty that looks? I made an interrobang!

But you don't have to do the intake of breath every time--you could get lightheaded.

But you totally have to make a face.

I want to pronounce it "ita bang" or "ita not".

eta: If it was "ita!" it could be a musical.

I want to pronounce it like a click.

I'm all disapproving: ita. With that look that my mother does.

There's TANF, which is a benefit for children

The Florida bill is requiring drug testing for TANF, which is temporary aid to families with children and partially federally funded. TANF requires transitioning to work, so the people who are eligible are probably not sprawled in an alley with a crack pipe. It also wouldn't support much of a habit.

I really like the Outback. It's got a fair amount of cargo space with the seats folded.

I feel like the eyebrow raise at the end of the name is making ita ! mean something dirty.

I rolled my right ankle tonight and managed injure my left knee doing so. I think it's hyperextended. It's a gift. A klutzy gift. I've been icing it since I got home but it's stiffening up and going downstairs is very painful.

Also I was away this weekend and came home to find that Oz had diarrhea and pooped all over the basement. I scrubbed and sprayed this pet odour stuff that has never failed me, but I think it's reacting with something else in the carpet under my desk, and the smell is very funky. Not poo funky, more dead thing funky.

Hey, what's edging? Is it different from orgasm denial?

According to Wikipedia (!), the difference is whether the practitioner eventually orgasms.

Man, I am glad I was out to dinner and didn't have to field that one. (We are a very pro-orgasm household, so the whole spectrum of not having one when you want to is a little odd to me.) (Yes, considering the things I do, I *did* just call something odd. Yes, I did.)

Edging makes a lot more sense (because you know, it's all about that) than a lot of the stuff I stumble upon on the web.

I mean, if it's consensual.
