When my son was really little, around three, we were stuck in a waiting area at the DMV with benches and one guy took up most of the only bench available. My son says loudly, "Mama, he's cooling his delicates like our kitty!" Kiddo had heard me to say to the cat who'd lay on his back spread out under the ceiling…

It's too bad the superintendent doesn't like to look at asses. It must be very difficult for her to face a mirror.

YES! I would buy all the tomatoes. :D That goat cheese is amazing. When my kid was little, around four, he got up really early one morning while I was showering. I might have been in there all of fifteen minutes, and Kiddo had managed to get up, open the cheese, and chow down on eight ounces of the stuff. He was…

Everything my husband says and does during the week leading up to my period irritates the hell out of me. There are brief moments I've wanted to dump his dinner or maybe some coffee on his head just because he's speaking. It doesn't even matter what he's saying. Our teenage son and only child has, of late, also…

Yes, this. You can feel the change between Fayetteville and Springdale as you cross over from one town to the next. I love Fayetteville, especially my neighbors, and am looking forward to moving back there. The first thing I'm going to do is go to the farmers market and buy a pound of goat cheese and sit on the…

This guy has a history of sexual assault. That has nothing to do with his gender identity and everything to do with him choosing deception to abuse people. All it proves is that some sick ass folks live on the planet right next to the rest of us.

Ah, we'e hoping to move back to Fayetteville. It's one of the more sane places in the state, and I'm really glad to hear they passed the ordinance banning discrimination. That is a huge step in a good direction.

Pitch Black got me. In part because he was playing Riddick, but mostly because I was ready to drool on myself. It was a high point in my shallowness moments.

This makes me extra happy. I spent most of my son's toddler and preschool years imitating Stitch's voice. :D

Holy cow. I liked that he asked, "Are you crazy?" He was so polite about it, amazing guy to keep his cool like that.

The job of cake taster would be so awesome if it existed. Had to get that thought out of my head. Mmm, cake.

Well, I laughed. I'd never heard it before today.

Heavens no! He's my responsibility, and in all honestly, the only people I'd want near him in that kind of situation would be rescue personnel. Admittedly, I'd do all I could to go back for all my critters. :)

I'm okay with being ignored (in the greys, I think it's called?) since it means a much more peaceful reading experience. It wasn't until recently I started making more comments anyway. :D Glad for you all, and yay for companies that listen to employees in need of help!

I have one child, one dog, and three cats. If there were a fire (any life and death scenario) and I had to choose between them, I'd save my kid. Priorities. One time I made the mistake of saying that aloud in front of a particular relative who insists her animals are her children. She is quite passionate about it.…

Not surprised Putin didn't ban Japanese imports. There is a decent, not exorbitant or anything, amount of trade happening. Trade volume increased by about 13% between the countries during 2012. One of my students wrote a paper about it. Interesting stuff. Maybe Russia's trades with Switzerland and NZ is also on…

I've always said my cats would smoke at least three packs a day and shuffle off a quart or two of bourbon were I to keep either around. The dog would offer to hold their lighters.

My father-in-law's back hair was kind of in the shape of wings. I always wondered if he combed it to get it looking like that.

Kitty isn't a monster. Owner, assuming this is real, is an idiot.

Okay, I said I wanted to kick the squirrels living in my attic last year when they started chewing like mad. I never actually thought about doing it. We just set traps with peanuts in them and let them go in a more squirrel friendly setting. Horrible people, and hopefully they are found.
