Bless this post and bless you Tracy! Speculating about mer-genitalia was a regular topic of discussion among the paranormal/fantasy romance readers in my friend group in the early ‘00s, so this is bringing back fond memories.

Great. I’m supposed to go and see this with my mom this weekend complete with q&a.

I heard a woman once talking about the abusive relationship she had been in and she said, “I didn’t think of myself as an abused woman. I thought of myself as a very strong woman who was deeply in love with a very damaged man, but a man who could be made whole if I just loved him enough.” It was enlightening and…

My son is 4. When he heads for the bathroom he now shouts, unprompted, ”gonna get it all in the bowl!” It is not reassuring.

All my kids (one girl 7, twin boys 5) enjoyed peeing outside, but one of my boys truly prefers to all other self-relief options. He states that he has to go to potty and just strolls out of the back door to piss on the bird feeder stand.

I lost about 80 lbs over several years. Office Magic’s suggestion is a really good one. Pick like 1 or 2 habits you want to change, and then focus on those. When they become typical behavior instead of something you have to actively work on, add a new habit.

Thank heavens we live in a democracy where people can compare a fetid piece of codswallop like (ack!) ‘Crash’ to a brilliant and truly risk-taking film like ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbings, Missouri.

That is not accurate, at least in the case of dachshunds, which were bred as working dogs to clear burrows of rodents and badgers. That’s why they are short-legged, wide-chested with long ears and long claws that make them good diggers. They certainly weren’t bred to be ‘funny and cute;’ if you have never dealt with a…

Nope. Not what kitten heels are for. It’s not about you at all short guy.

This this, always this.
