I wonder if the new potty training movie is any good...it's called How to Drain Your Dragon.

My daughter has this nasty stuffed dog she has to sleep with. It was once white and had relatively long shaggy hair; now it is grayish and the fur on both sides is matted worse than dredlocks. But the strands are still separable along the top and underside, and twice now, she has unexpectedly awoken from her nap because she completely entwined one finger in the mass of fur and the circulation to her fingertip was cut off.

So today, after I pinned her flailing arm down long enough to cut the thing off her purple finger, I gave her stuffed dog a haircut. He's looking much more sleek now.

Nah, I'm actually kind of mean--I did it even though I knew there was a decent chance she might freak out at the alteration to her special doggie (she didn't, fortunately.) I had this lingering fear that one day she wouldn't wake up in time, or I wouldn't hear her crying right away, and she'd lose her dang fingertip.

ya'but you could have just thrown it away.
You cut the fur but did so to satisfy safety needs and to let her keep her beloved fur ball.

Abacus ... abaci. Well, the spell checker doesn't like it, but it works in crosswords.

Finally... 400 Posts. Took me four fuckin' years to get there too.

That's quite an achievement. What's that come out to? About one post a day.

Somebody give me a cookie.

Maybe a calculator would serve you better than a cookie.

Don't all 10 year olds laugh at their parents? My teens have turned to grunts...I miss the laughing!
