I know where you can get fresh fava beans.

I love it when the other parents look at me like I'm out of my mind. :)
It's warm and rainy today, so there are lots of mud puddles. So I let Bryce play in the mud on the way home from school. It's just dirt. It washes off. You shoulda seen the horrified looks I got.
That's weird. My post didn't show up on the thread. Leastways not for me.

Nope. I didn't see it either.
That's an awesome story, though. :)

Missed it as well.
I think they need a class for all new parents on how to unpucker their butts sometimes. ;)

I think every kid needs to play in the mud once in a while. It's one of the perks of being a kid. :)

lol. Yes, they do. Some of these people have no idea how to let their kids just be kids. Especially here in overscheduled child central.

That drives me frakking nuts! Those people that send their kid to school, then have ballet, scouts, T-Ball, Gymnastics, Piano lessons, etc. every night so they don't actually see the kid except for 30 minutes-1 hour a night. And that's just for dinner, and bath time. I once heard someone say they did this so they would be free to live their life without their child interfering..... WTF!? Why not just get your freaking tubes tied so you couldn't have them in the first place! Kids don't interfer with your life, the become your life! If you can't deal with that, then don't have kids! </RANT>Note I do not include parents who have one or two activities for the kids, or those that do these things with their children.... I coached my older two's Softball team, The Lugnuts, this past summer.

Bye all!
Hello Celestial Healer... bye Celestial Healer. Please take Mr. Lecter with you.
I love it when the other parents look at me like I'm out of my mind. :)

Yay! More proof you are a great mom.

My daughter was in an Upwards basketball program last year, and she had a lot of fun and wants to do it again this year. There was another girl on her team who is tall and more natural at playing basketball. But her father kept criticizing her after games and during practice. The team lost the last game, and this poor girl was crying afterwards. How crappy is that?

*blush* Well, thanks. I try at least.
Speaking of the spawn, I think he's going for the ranger class. He's currently dual-wielding his toy rapier and his toy broadsword. And I'm okay with this as long as he doesn't start giving his swords funny names. ;)

Just make sure he doesn't turn into Belkar. :)

It pisses me off so much when parents do that. :(

Oh dear. I hadn't thought of that. Uh-oh. I think I'm in trouble. ;)

kidlet stuff
The Dude Upstairs doesn't seem to take my calls, but I'll try to remember to keep sending positive thoughts Kellen's and your way.
As a matter of fact I have. Mostly rewording thanks to suggestions from Ambrosia. I'll send an updated copy.
I should have thrown in the disclaimer that I spent a few too many years translating Japanese-English engineer speak into information that normal mortals could understand... so my suggestions may need to be taken with a bag of salt.

Someone is "balancing" a thread by arguing with both extremes. :)
It's like having Switzerland threaten the US and China simultaneously.
Maybe they've seen the The Mouse That Roared too many times?

I incorporated most of your changes, sat on it until this afternoon, and looked at it again. Besides the paper being crumpled (buh-dump-dump), I noticed the very...first...sentence began with a prepositional phrase, which I think is a big no-no. Oops.
I really appreciate you taking the time to look through it.

Parents like that tick me off. I had a mother that yelled and at her daughter when I was coaching, I warned her about that twice, then when she started it up again, I threw her out of the game, and banned her from comming anymore. Her father brought her after that. And I thought I could be too critical of my kids. :/

Amateur. You should be using at least an 18v cordless hammer drill with titanium bits. Works great on the skulls of Thread Trolls too.

Thanks for the offer, we tried getting into that show, but I just couldn't.Not really that into it I guess. :/

You're very welcome. I'm really hoping you get this PF.
If I every go back to finish college, I know I need to retake at least one Comp course again. It's getting rusty.

Hey,you stopped hiccuping in time... congrats!
Did you keep see the number three pop up over and over, and decide to explosively decompress the shuttlebay instead of using the tractor beam?
