links and language

Lyli awakes at 2 am to Rob, Eamon and my humble self firing BB guns off the front porch, effetively shredding several empty cans of ranier beer. armed to the teeth with a rifle, shotgun and pistol we plink the night away with no regrets. And the words of pop songs filter through the BB gun fire and the whimpers of a waking daughter and the clink of wine bottles. And so I leave you, dear readers, with a nice, long list o' linkages I have been perusing this day and night and morn and day again on this farm where we walk the party we want to see:

SO! This is great, but here's a burning quest-ion: where can single gals find guys like y'all who want kids too??? Is there a site? Do you have any sweet friends? You're a rare, rare population, I think!

in response to miss anonymous... well, I don't really know. I mean, I didn't ever want kids until I had my own. So either you have to convince them it'll be cool no matter how the cookie crumbles or I do. Oh, and I suppose humping someone with a spine helps. Thanks for your attention and compliments, I enjoy the fact you use the word y'all... perhaps we've met somewhere in those dusty hills of eastern washington where my tall ship still sails.

Yeah. Being single was a blast. Being married is a blast. Being a parent is a blast. so you never really know until it happens to you. Bad advice for someone looking for someone to be a Papa, but it's the truth.
