Yes.

They're teaching us the difference between public health nuisance and hoarding. How to deal with clients who are hoarders. That type of thing.

They mentioned not being able to throw away anything because you think it might be reused for another purpose later on if you just keep it. My 7yo does that. I have to periodically throw away half of his "treasures" because they are all empty water bottles or envelopes. I realize that in school they really push recycling, but I think they are terrifying our children into this type of behavior.

The only thing I have hoarding issues with is food.

I have 3 year old peaches in the freezer that I know I should toss, but if I do then they will be gone, and then what will I do? That comes from the abusive POS ex stranding me in BFE with no car and no food for my kids or myself for days on end. Now that I can buy food anytime I need to I tend to get a little overzealous about making sure we have a backlog.....

No, he's just your basic computer/gamer type geek. He's so shy, the first time we met his whole body was shaking. It was cute

Awwww. You're so easy to be around, too. From the first moment we met, I was completely comfortable with you. And Ella? Running to hug you the second she saw you!

Thanks Belle, you're pretty easy to get along with too. I had so much fun I wish I could do it again!

Oh Buff your sooo sweet. I'd like to think she looks like me but no, and thank you for all the compliments.

This is DS that I wanted to murder

He's 6'7 and 265. I can still take him down though LOL.

You and DH are cute! and remind DS, the bigger they are the harder they fall.

That was awesome!

"Can he lead a normal life?"
"No. He'll be an engineer."
"Noooooo!" [sobs uncontrollably]

Although Jacob is drawn to noisy, blinky toys, he has a marked affinity for cell phones, laptops, lamp cords and remote controls. He will always choose to chew on my cell phone over the entire tote of baby toys. He even managed to unlock the keypad lock and call Michelle in AK last month. I'm doooooooooomed!

I like getting calls from Jacob, he sounds adorable!

I'm really sad that The Rum Diary is getting poor reviews

Doesnt anyone appreciate the brilliance behind Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas?!?

Oh, and BTW, expressed my strange baby-cravings to DH last night. Bad idea. He didn't discourage it ONE bit.

I thought Sparkles DH was fixed???

If you're taking a poll, I'm all for Sparkles adding to the OW population.
