Just stopping in to say Hi!
And Thanks!
I do wonder about your RL story stuff left hanging, but wouldn’t presume to ask FMI.

AAG, couldn’t you have found a nastier looking tuna casserole to link to than that? NOT.

Yick.

Nope, I picked the nastiest one! –aag

I’m in love with Jane’s Guide! Thank you!

Well… the haiku contest that was suggested sounds mighty fine, even if we destitute people from afar cannot play because customs people would get a fit (possibly even a tight fit)

I found the tuna casserole pretty shocking too actually! :p

Um, i hate to ask, seeing as how you have been so very patient and generous already, but I was wondering how the birth control was going? I remember you in stirrups, and then not much more after that. I have assumed that no news is good news…

I ask because im suddenly in a relationship, and needing contraception, and wanting it to be a bit more permanent than the pill.

It’s working great for me. This is the second time I’ve had an IUD. Mirena has hormones in it, which are released only locally. I’m one of the lucky ones for whom this means NO periods. Seriously. I haven’t had a period in months. Talk to your doctor. –aag

Sorry to hear about the kitty fetish… my cat does that with sweatshirts, blankets on the bed, and anything else he can get to that smells like us (my husband and I - though it’s worse if it smells like me). When I had to live with my parents for a month while my husband and I were dating, I would bring shirts home with me as night shirts, and he would do his business with them if I didn’t keep them hidden. When I had to go to court with my ex last Feb, he was trying to find anything that smelled like me, as I was 2 states away and my husband (then still boyfriend) was taking care of him for me. So I feel your pain… and that’s the reason I don’t have silk pillowcases, or anything fancy lying around - I’d hate to see what he’d do to them….
I am glad that you fixed the hair issue though, I can relate to that too… moving from California to Colorado is what fixed mine….

It is hard to bake veg into a pie and still have it look good.
The spinach on the side looks tasty though.

Thanks for the clear up.

Well since you asked…… and I assume there may be a particular reason you have never (in my memory) disclosed this so you probably won’t disclose now, but can’t blame a girl for trying:

How do you know your children’s biological mother? I think we’ve gotten that she is young and lives not too close and she does not appear to be family….

We met her through the agency that trained and licensed us to be adoptive parents. She read our paperwork, looked at pictures, met us, then chose us. :) –aag

…boy, I sure would love to live in their world.

Wow. Just…wow.

I had a dream last night she was sobbing and weeping on my shoulder. An omen of legal success…?

i 2nd the children’s-mother question, if you willing/able to disclose. yay unfishy vagina. walk good.

I must ask – and this goes back a bit but has a recent reminder.

Both times I have read comments about your blog they have referred to your aversion to high heels/uncomfortable shoes.

For some reason though I seem to recall you changed your judgment on them and quite liked the look/feel of them when not actually used for walking (more pointing…to the ceiling)

What is your current position? ?

Er…I will tolerate them, if their use is requested. :) –aag

I third the mother question. I think its really interesting.

Believe it or not, I really am happy the hair issue got resolved. Plus I suspect fingers can now go through it more easily. Mmmmmm.

True ’nuff. :) –aag

Glad you’re taking a firm line over the unpaid payments for your work. The responses that you’re getting indicate that there might be some uncertainty on the other side that their case will stand up to investigation n court :o)

I’m in a similar legal situation with our former property manager - he’s withholding a large chunk of our security deposit without any explanation of why or without even telling us that he’s decided to do so. And he thinks we ought to just let it drop. Um.. no! I don’t understand why some people think laws don’t apply to them.

my cat goes apeshit for essential oils, particularly mint and rosemary… check the scent?

and man, that was one grody looking casserole, glad the BV is better, i’ve had it and it ITCHES

OH! Good to know. Perhaps I didn’t start reading early enough. I always got the impression that you did not actually intend to adopt either of the children but simply knew their mother and couldn’t say no.

It seems you were very lucky to have found each other!

No, my dear, your writing is far from “autumn.” Most entries are as hot as summertime in southern Mississippi.

I think someone’s jealous of your longevity.
