Seemed all cuddly until I saw those claws!

Honestly, I was shocked I actually stood my ground the first time. I'm usually a pleaser to my own detriment, but this was a special case, it seems.

Not in the same ballpark at all, but when I first brought my girlfriend (now wife!) to my parents' house for a few days, my Mom actually asked where she was going to sleep. I was 24 or 25 at the time, and I was shocked—Mom isn't usually so prudish. It all ended when I offered for us to go stay at a hotel if us (two…

It's definitely worth the read—thanks for linking to it, Tom.

Probably the whiskey.
