I did not mean to imply that it was at all inconceivable that a five your old would have a concept of money, no matter the financial state of the family. My family did not have a lot of money either, but that was not something that was discussed with me at 5. If there were things that I wanted that could not be…

I don’t believe I was aware enough of the concept of handling money to have saved for anything at that age.

And then you've got my dad, who got remarried after being divorced for like 20 years and had the ceremony with TWO rings. One for every day, one for occasions.

Feck I know!! I’ve been following her stuff for years and I feel like she is the most genius. Between the historical stuff and her ultra-charming real life comics, I totally adore everything.

Valid.......but I don’t really want to sit and talk about what dress I’m wearing either......I guess it’s true, women can’t have it all......

I’m not siding with the mother, I am siding with the children that insist that they have seen him beat their mother. Frankly, his whole story sounds like a classic case of abuse where the woman keeps trying to leave.

Yeah, I didn’t read the transcript, but that’s not a typical kid response. It’s one thing for a child/teen to be defiant and irreverent to a judge - a kid without manners or respect for authority. But this is strong young people standing up for their rights, and refusing to be intimidated.

I’m going to be heading there in not too long for business. What park and what day of the week? Or if you have a website or something. I want to learn but feel too awkward - at least no one I know would be able to see me learning if I was out of town. Maybe I should take tap dancing out of town too?

I literally froze and whispered “Circus Arts.” I definitely need a degree in Circus Arts. I think my boss wants me to get a degree before I can get a promotion, but no one said in what.

Ugh......you’re so cool it hurts me.....I’m nauseous. A) To have mastered lace-making.....I learned tatting when I was about 13 and never got farther than 3 loops before I had a snarl that couldn’t be dealt with. B) You got personal, handwritten, correspondence from The Notorious. You have my sincere admiration! The…

I only saw your first line, minus the smile-face in the alerts and was all ready to reply all, “Well obviously, they’re not, since there’s obviously an issue.” Lol.

I just can’t reconcile the two J-Laws.......the one who acts like a doofus with the guys, and the one that would date the same sort of men as Gwyneth Paltrow.....

Valid point, but I think a lot of “serious readers” change position a lot. And back in the day, when we didn’t loll around reading in bed and on the couch, but were more proper (your picture), I don’t think there was a lot of hardcore reading marathons because of the lighting involved. If you’ve ever tried to read by…

I totally agree with that, but I can’t agree with the notes following the list.

Oh yeah, I can definitely agree with that. I don’t want to look at private pictures of anyone who doesn’t want me to see them.

This reminds me of my brother who liked to hide in the center of round clothing racks in department stores. Till one time, he hid so long that mum forgot he was with her and left without him. Never hid in racks again.

I think all children should be dressed in those old time outfits, knee socks and all, until such time as they have their own clothing opinions. If I ever had kids, they’d look the Little Rascals all the time.

I saw the car in front of me hit a woman at night on the highway near Waco about 15 years ago. I’ve never been the same since.

Yeah, I think if my brother had killed a bunch of people in a church, I’d be auctioning off my wedding package and donating that money. Then I’d take my ass to the courthouse and quietly wed. How the fuck do you celebrate anything? Your brother just killed a bunch of people, how are they literally able to even…

I’m the one on the bottom left. Purple sundress with cherries and I no longer get natural gold highlights. Boo.
