PA, public administration, public policy, writing it, researching it, public service (elected officials) down to trash haulers. Public Administration is anyone within government, and also non profits that service the public (social services, etc). I plan on advocacy in the form of worker's rights, especially the working poor aka farmworkers

Mayne, why did she go there then? I mean, that is a fundamental part of it.
1:22 am
AprilD

Evaluations are a real bitch.
1:23 am
MayneGuy

I also know it rates really highly as a liberal arts college
1:23 am
AprilD

you don't just get a grade (you don't get a grade) you have to self evaluate, evaluate your professors, and have them evaluate you, in each class, and have a meeting with each one to candidly discuss it. It is a lot of work.

She moved to Tacoma when she got married and needed to finish her degree in the States, I think Evergreen had the nicest fit for her in terms of the program she was doing (sociology)
1:25 am
AprilD

did she go to the Tacoma campus? I went there for my last two years for my BA
1:25 am
dart001

lo 4,4 lo 5,10 lo 6,18
1:25 am
AprilD

which has a boatload of soc (my fav)
1:25 am
MayneGuy

I know, I've often thought it would be nice to have that sort of input into your education
1:26 am
MayneGuy

No, she did all here courses at the Olympia campus, she was only there for a year.
1:27 am
AprilD

if I get my master's in two, I will be at Evergreen for 4 years total, but not as a regular student, ever. Tacoma only has like 200 students and is completely different than Olympia. Then grad school is different too. I have had very few young 20 somethings in any of my classes.
1:28 am
MayneGuy

Interesting, I've been thinking about the MPA program at UVic in Victoria, not sure how Canadian programs compare to the US
1:28 am
rururocks

thanks dart.. just three s's to go
1:29 am
AprilD

well, the difference would probably mostly be in the different governance structure.
1:29 am
MayneGuy

I imagine that the majority of the students in that program will have a few years of public service under their belt
1:29 am
AprilD

if I were going to work in Canada, I would study there
1:30 am
MayneGuy

I know that it is the best school in BC for PA, there's some older programs back east in Ottawa and Montreal
1:30 am
AprilD

Not everyone. though many in my class (seems like most) do. I have very little, mostly volunteer and internship stuff. Or very low level stuff (well, I was a horticulturist in a botanical garden, which was non profit, but we were a tiny tiny staff).

btw April, and others, this is MayneGirls son who's visiting for the holidays
1:33 am
AprilD

I am kind of floored and scared to death by the amount of knowlege and experience in my program by the fellow students, at first I was so intimidated. I mean, they were already directors of their departments, and I have only been a worker bee, mostly in manual labor (as a gardener). But, there is a place for everyone, because public service, in my opinion, demands a multitude of life experiences that should be brought to the table. I am interested in the workers, because I have always been one.

hi kiwi
1:35 am
MayneGuy

ty April, I agree that the public service needs people with a diverse array of talents, in BC we're expecting to lose half of our work force in the next 15 years through retirement, replacing those people will be tough
1:35 am
moonwoof

Yeah. And dart didn't indicate he did. =P Guess I'm gonna go dig lol
1:35 am

well Mayne, it sounds like lots of doors will be opened for you then.

I just have to interject that Eddie Murphy and James Belushi were not in the original SNL cast. John Belushi, Jane Curtin, Dan Akroyd, Gilda Radner, Chevy Chase, Garrett Morris and Larraine Newman were the original players.
1:44 am

1:55 am
GroovyKiwi

the funny thing was was that we were on holiday and visiting new york doing a tourist thing on the bus when we got stopped and asked did we want to stand in the crowd as they needed more ppl lol
1:55 am
moonwoof

But that had to be a cool story to take home from vacation...
1:55 am
GroovyKiwi

1:56 am
dcseain

1:57 am
GroovyKiwi

ive done a few local tv things too in my life lol - was a contestant on both local versions of sale of the centuary and wheel of fortune
1:57 am
GroovyKiwi

1:57 am
GroovyKiwi

so i got credits on their shows lolol
1:57 am
dcseain

neat, kiwi
1:58 am
moonwoof

That's even more funny. My dad's basically an accountant and he waits thru All the credits until he finds out who the production accountants are. I wonder if he knows your name.
1:58 am
GroovyKiwi

i was gonna be an extra too in the LOTR trilogy films but i couldnt get the time off my real job lol
1:59 am
GroovyKiwi

probably not moon as they were new zealand local content shows
1:59 am

1:59 am
GroovyKiwi

though if you know the comedian strassman i work on a couple of his shows here
1:59 am
moonwoof

I think so, half the time. My dad Only looks for the accountants, tho. He collects some Very odd things.
1:59 am
GroovyKiwi

then there were a couple of game shows and a music show
2:01 am

I suppose Kiwi. But he's an odd duck. With cable and satTV I'm hard pressed to say either way lol

2:15 am
dcseain

no, moon.
2:16 am
moonwoof

ok, good. Otherwise I'd be getting worried, sitting here, monkeying.
2:16 am
dcseain

how the rankings are calculated is explained by a link in the upper left of rankings page. it relates to finishing grids, and how much you found if not finished
2:16 am
dcseain

penalties are harsh for not finishing. really better not to start rather than not to finish in most cases.
2:16 am
dcseain

my paternal grandfather died on December 22, 1983, and his funeral was the following day.
3:55 am
moonwoof

Funerals at xmas are about as cool as rum balls with candied fruit. And those aren't very cool at all.
3:56 am
herinfernallady

Have you thought that maybe the Grandparents are watching you transit into your new house and are glad you have finally found somewhere new and safe and some where to restart old traditions. I feel that they are watching over you. Please try not to be sad. Im sure that they are happy for you to enjoy this time with the family no matter how trying that senile Uncle Ernie is or how crazy Aunt Hattie has got
3:56 am
moonwoof

I thought you were enjoying the new house, tho... Is that changing?
3:57 am
Angelsong

thank you, herin. I do feel they are close...and thatt they are happy for me...I just miss them so much, and I wish they could see my new home.
3:58 am
Angelsong

not a bit. I still love the new house. I am so happy and peaceful here.
3:58 am
herinfernallady

Also do you have a pic of them together in that hall of yours? Maybe they would like pride of place on that wall or on a mantle?
4:00 am
Angelsong

I think some of the emotions I'm feeling are because we decided not to decorate this year...so it feels like something is missing. what with moving, unpacking, my husband's school/finals decorating was a bit much.
4:00 am
moonwoof

Well, good. Had me worried there for a second. But you know they wouldnt want you to miss them... or, especially, feel bad over the holidays. You have so very much to Enjoy.
4:01 am

4:01 am

angel, my maternal grandma died 3 weeks after i was married ( the first time ). years later i had my first baby, he was crying so much, especially at night. i was really low and depressed. one night my grandma came to me, and said, get on with rosemary, you're the only one that little baby wants . from that night on, i never looked back, and i will always remember how nana came back and encouraged me.

good morning. One kid up (the youngest/boy) the others are sleeping still
5:48 am

we had a lovely breakfast, then the kids and I cuddled while reading thefinal english Harry Potter together. Now it is babble time for me... hubby and kids crawled back into the big bed for another cuddle, lol.
5:50 am

today my idea is to just watch x-mas programs on t.v. or those we already recorded and do nothing.

Good morning Sprite and everyone. I hope you all have had or will have a happy day as I have had, spending time with family and friends. A happy & peaceful Xmas to you all!
5:51 am

hi lynxxx
5:51 am

we don't have presents with Xmas here. This afternoon we will go canoeing, then have a midwinter BBQ. After that, home, dvd, warm cuddling. Tomorrow: nice breakcast, lazy day, mantra singing, mandala drawing and colouring... lovely family day.

Hi Andree - I hope you didn't spoil those grandchildren too much

hi BabbleRabble, good to see you. I wish you Light in all your nights and all your days.
5:56 am

Sprite - your celebration seems to be more original - is Sinterklaas the original Santa Claus?
5:56 am
Andree

hi babble
5:57 am
lynxxx

hello BabbleRabble
5:57 am
BabbleRabble

Hello, peoples best wishes
5:58 am
sprite

Yes, I think so, lynxxx. Sint Nicholas was a patron of children. We celebrate a night of gifts and innocent fun (with tease presents and rhymes) on the evening before his birthday.
5:59 am
sprite

Xmas is originally not with gifts here, though the influence of the US and the commerce try to make it so. We celebrate Xmas with family things (and close friends), it is a more solemn celebration, focused on the inner Light and the birth of Christ for those who believe in that.

jean1953

good morning everyone, Happy holidays:)
6:04 am
sprite

it is for me, anyway, lynxxx. Though I am religious in my own, weird way, I don't feel 'merry' this time of year. Exuberant festivities don't appeal to me. But I like to focus on Midwinter, on the light that starts winning from the dark again, from the process of everything turning into itself, drawing back power and life into the deepest core, and then the reversal of it. So that in our core the Light is born again and can start preparing for the outer birth as well.
6:05 am

you too, jean!

Is there a 6 letter f word that is a mexican food in the grid? not sure of the spelling
6:14 am

I have a 6 letter F word, but I don't know what it means. It contains a foreign word for milk, I think.
6:15 am

6:15 am

and just like the profiles, the ? buttons don't work either for me yet. I have to find out what is blocking it all.

Hi Uniquity! Are you home with Mom?
8:28 am
Scrabbler

Hi Lori! Enjoying the day so far? Before I went to bed at about midnight, I checked the NORAD Santa report and he was in Labrador so I knew you would be getting your deliveries soon after.
8:30 am
Uniquity

The Norad Santa tracker was incredibly complicated...he came to NS, then took a huge detour...then came back, maybe?
8:30 am
Uniquity

She is cleaning the rest of the ham we had for supper last night while I lounge and babble
8:31 am
Scrabbler

Yes, his global route was rather random.

it was 8:30 here and he hit dartmouth...so we sent the boys to bed, but then he went to south america for some time

Any time is fine. Just head for Vermont and give me a call.

Scrabbler

They will likely not want anything done, but it should be recognized that they didn't kill each other along the way.
9:38 am
Scarlet

gopik, I don't think it's better than chicken, but it is a more dense type of fowl... milder flavor... very versatile...
9:38 am
Fiber Art

Aha, that is a real accomplishment, Scrabbler

I visited Burlington in Oct 2006 and fell in love.

I am about 40 miles south of Burlington, in Rutland.

I am laughing, Scrabbler...we had some family members who nattered on at one another constantly, but would be lost if they didn't have a "battle" partner...
9:40 am
Scrabbler

I once went to a tennis camp in Killington and we played indoors in Rutland, if I recall, on a rainy day. I would move to VT if my family were not here.
9:40 am
Scrabbler

Yes, Scarlet, my parents are like that--couldn't live without one another, but frequent bickering. My father is a saint.

The music at church last night was so beautiful. Now I am listening to one of my favorite CDs, Lowen and Navarro - At Long Last, Christmas.

I do both, Periwinkle. Visually I prefer Scramble, plus I like to rotate the grid halfway. There are some superstars on Scramble, including some familiar names from Noggin.

Scrabs, hope it doesn't last all day
9:52 am
periwinkle

do you need a script for the naproxen
9:52 am
Scrabbler

Will you call family, FA?
9:52 am
Scrabbler

No, OTC--works better than ibuprofen, at least for me.
9:52 am
pam

LOVE naproxen. The regime doc gave me was 3 naproxen, one vic... (I am super tolerant of these meds...)
9:52 am

Hi, Pam. Other than that, we're having a good time. Scrabbler, so sorry about the Migraine. Good idea about the phonecall. Yes, I will!
9:53 am
periwinkle

what is the brand name so I can tell my friend who gets migraines
9:53 am
Scrabbler

Yes, I tried naproxen last spring and it typically aborts the migraine within 1-2 hrs.
9:54 am
Scrabbler

"Aleve", but I buy generic.
9:54 am

okay, thanks, Scrabbler

I know how that goes, fiber

Scrabbler

I get sentimental about Xmas's as a kid, with my late grandparents and with all of my cousins around. Those were great days.
9:55 am
pam

I find it works best for me. I don't bother with ibuprofen--doesn't have any affect on my headaches AT ALL.
9:56 am
pam

Xmas as a kid was with christian friends, so it was always nice because we were out of our crazy house...
9:56 am
periwinkle

I will tell my friend about the naproxin, thanks pam and Scrabbler
9:56 am
Scrabbler

I agree, Pam. I tried it after a local pediatric rheumatologist told me it is more potent than ibuprofen and she uses it on her arthritis patients.
9:57 am
pam

Sure, peri. I used to have a script for it, and that was the equivalent of 3, but I wouldn't advise that unless a doc says so.
9:57 am
Scrabbler

Yes, Pam, to be with "normal" adults and families was always a relief and such refuge.
9:57 am
pam

EXACTLY, scrabs...
9:58 am

I see Aleve advertised on TV for arthritis pain

True, gail, which is why my doc and I talk... But debilitating pain isn't safe, either, and since I am regularly screened for colon cancer, I am glad I am so far so good with pain relief and no side effects to date...

I agree, Pam. My kids and I have migraines, too. It's hard to know what to do.

Well, peri, people get the same colitis from aspirin and ibuprofen. And, they take too much tylenol and destroy their livers... I think it is all in being informed and followed by a care provider

I had the most wonderful surprise today. My son sent me some tea from Pete's with a little "tea for one" pot. I think it had been at the unused front door for a while but the view from the street was blocked by the piles of snow. Sun. we had high temps and a rainstorm and a lot of the snow was washed away. In my walk with the Bichon this AM I spotted it. Now that's sort of a miracle

4:06 pm
Uniquity

Isn't it sleepy time in Australia? Or have I got myself all muddled again...Time Zones are tricky
4:07 pm
herinfernallady

No its not its 9am boxing day. I got so horridly spoilled by everyone. I didn't ask for anything this year
4:08 pm
Uniquity

Wow, you're 15 hours ahead of me. Maybe I will remember that sometime...Any big plans for the day?
4:08 pm
herinfernallady

Eat more ham
4:09 pm
herinfernallady

Buy new microwave read instructions on new camera
4:09 pm
Uniquity

Aww...man. I had a delicious homesmoked ham last night...Mmmm. New camera sounds fun...I adore technology
4:11 pm
herinfernallady

Yum Uni i got the new Canon Iso 70 from my parents. I was shaking when i was playing with it this morning. There was lots of wholly sh??s when i opened it. Then my b,f spoilled me with presents. My house mate gave me a Death head, he looks like Death from Hogfather.
4:13 pm
Uniquity

Sounds like a fabulous treat Herin
4:15 pm
herinfernallady

Yes the kindness had me in tears. We gave my b.fs mum earings and she squelled that was nice
4:18 pm
Uniquity

I s'pose I was more taken aback, but I was in tears after Ata told me to sign out and in again....Most unexpected gift of the year
4:18 pm
herinfernallady

Uni how is family day going for you?
4:18 pm
herinfernallady

That was very cool of Ata and Haz. Which i have not seen Ata about
4:21 pm
LoriP

It is a fabulous thing that Haz did, and I can vouch for Uni's tears from Ata's kindness. A few tears on my part, that Haz would do such a thing for me. A stranger.
4:21 pm
herinfernallady

Hi Lori.
4:21 pm
LadyNatts

so can someone tell me ... where do you go to play and get the chat and the video at the end?
4:21 pm
Uniquity

We're just suckers for great people ;)
4:22 pm
Uniquity

Well Lady...since I have no pro experience yet, I dunno, really. But the video popped up upon completion for me yesterday (while using babble expert)
4:23 pm
LadyNatts

but what's babble expert? and where do you find it?
4:23 pm
LoriP

Merry Christmas LadyNatts, but, like Uni, I have no experience. I finished, and the video popped up.
4:23 pm
LoriP

e-mail Lickety for a copy of Babble expert. It's awesome.
4:24 pm
LadyNatts

I guess you have to BECOME a babble expert or something...
4:24 pm
johnnyrocket

lori, I did that and he didn't give it to me. You have to buy the expert thing
4:24 pm
LadyNatts

sorry, Lori... Merry Christmas to you too!
4:25 pm
Uniquity

Johnny, I had it for over half a year while not pro...but I suppose I had been here a long time before that.
Natts - If you e-mail and ask, he will send it - it combines the grid and the clue list in one browser for ease of use (plus bonus video)
4:25 pm
LoriP

johnny, i only became pro yesterday. I've used Lickety's Babble expert dor months. lickety is my hero for creating it.
4:25 pm
LoriP

* for even
4:26 pm
LoriP

LadyNatts, Babble Expert is awesome on a big grid. Totally rocks. I highly recommend e-mailing Lickety.
4:26 pm
herinfernallady

Johnny LIckety may be busy with family or he may be now distrubuting the expert thing to Pro players to help the creator of the site
4:26 pm
johnnyrocket

Well I though so too. Uni... I did as you suggested and emailed him. He said I had to do the upgrade thing. I was very upset. I love this game, but right here at christmas it is just too much.. :-(
4:26 pm
Uniquity

Lickety makes expert independantly of Dr. God and as it is such a fantastic too, I'm sure they both feel that if he gave it to everyone right away that Dr. God would not get pro subscribers.
4:27 pm
Uniquity

Also, as Herin pointed out, they are in the process of moving as well as holidays. Much as I wish it was so, his job is not to serve my needs :(
4:28 pm
Uniquity

Like I said Johnny, I was here a long time before I got expert...and I was likely a fluke :)
4:28 pm
johnnyrocket

I emailed dr. god where do I get lickety... on his babbles clues?
4:29 pm
herinfernallady

Johnny yes its Chrissy yes its hard $$$ but there is only a small fee attached for life time membership. Lickety created a program Bable expert which is an upgrade of Licketys list which is under friens of babble Licketys babble Clues
4:29 pm
LoriP

I'm ashamed to admit i have not i'net chatted with Lickety lately. Perhaps he has changed his policy. I know it's a busy time for Lickety and hsi family right now. They have lots of irons in the fire in their lives.
4:29 pm
Uniquity

Dr. God has nothing to do with Expert, if that is what you e-mailed him about...Lickety's address can be found on his clues page. He created expert.
4:29 pm
LadyNatts

you know, I did mention it in chat to lickety once... didn't see me, I guess.
4:30 pm
LoriP

LadyNatts Send an e-mail and wait LOL He's very busy right now.
4:31 pm
herinfernallady

Lickety created the list and programs for his beloved to play. He has kindly shared this with us.
4:31 pm
johnnyrocket

thanks everyone... Taking a little long to understand.. ha ha
4:32 pm
LadyNatts

that's sweet of him.
4:32 pm

Johnny its kinda like giving out a phone number without that persons permision.

Good afternoon, merry xmas to all who are celebrating. I need a clue for so6/24, please?
4:32 pm

4:32 pm
Marc Freeman

Well lady I only have 11
4:35 pm
Marc Freeman

Got the so6
4:36 pm
Marc Freeman

Lady I hope you did not take the fact that I only have 11 the wrong way it was just to let you know that I am just starting, way to go hope you finish soon. Best
4:36 pm
LadyNatts

thanks marc, no offense taken
4:37 pm
herinfernallady

Also Johnny. Why pay for pro when you get the bells and whistles for free. Dr God has to run the servers create the puzzles and monitor emails for pests
4:37 pm
herinfernallady

Go Nats
4:37 pm
herinfernallady

Merry CHristmas Marc
4:38 pm
Marc Freeman

hi herin
4:38 pm
herinfernallady

I am tired. Dang cat smacked me in the head with a pair of tweezers that was on the window sill as she was hungry. Then proceeded to yowl out me to get my attention for food. I ignored her.
4:39 pm
LadyNatts

It figures that all the words I have left are S's... I suck at S words
4:39 pm
LadyNatts

not a good idea, herin
4:39 pm
LadyNatts

cats do not like to be ignored
4:40 pm
LadyNatts

I also tend to miss the words that end in S ... :(
4:40 pm
herinfernallady

Nats when they yowl out you and in effect demand food its not a habit i encourage specially the waking me up till i fed her. SHe had no food left as she gutsed it all
4:41 pm
LadyNatts

true... I've tried that with mine too, but they are persistant
4:42 pm
herinfernallady

And do they try and kill you by curling about your feet
4:42 pm
LadyNatts

If I figure that might happen, I leave them out of my room
4:43 pm
herinfernallady

True but sliding door equals kitty attack till it opens. One night she kept me awake so the next day when she was asleep i poked her. SHe looked at me like 'what the heck was that for'? For which i answered 'Not fun being woken up is it?"
4:48 pm
herinfernallady

Merry christmas i am off

5:58 pm

watering instrument with a consonant
5:59 pm

that's the first one, right chic?
5:59 pm

second the first is the hayburner
6:00 pm

I'm sorry I don't understand what you mean
6:00 pm

the first ho 6/21 is the four legged creature

I guess if you figure I only need an avg of 2 more for the next 6 hrs it doesn't seem so hard
6:05 pm
metaleather

true, but figure it as 3 for the next 4 hours and that will leave 2 whole hours for that elusive last word
6:06 pm
MaggieDoodles

also a good strategy!
6:06 pm

Hey Lori thanks for the clue on lo6 but it is not showing up. The lo4/4 is to not find something then there is a lo5 which is the pl then the lo6/18 which I still cannot find. Any other clue?

6:14 pm
Marc Freeman

The first fl6/33, please?
6:14 pm
MaggieDoodles

oh that old saw
6:14 pm

6:15 pm

sorry Marc, no joy from me, I'm looking too
6:15 pm
MaggieDoodles

right. Don't mind me, my brains are kind of scrambled right now
6:16 pm

hi all... need two to finish...es4 and se5,14
6:57 pm
Jacula

The grid's a gentle one, of sorts. It has one or two surprises, like the last word I found...
6:57 pm
Jacula

Hi mrae - es4 is plural of the letter it sounds like.
6:58 pm
Jacula

se5/14 is like the se4.6 below it but with a 'negative' word at the end.
6:58 pm
Jacula

Jellen - was Santa good to you?
6:58 pm
MaggieDoodles

ok, hubby's been helping me - we only need one more word!
6:59 pm
Jacula

Anyway, as I was saying, the grid provides a few surprises like the last word I found, so6/24, which actually means 'pseudopodia of amoebas' but looks like some kind of French suncream preparation.
7:00 pm
Jacula

And that word is? (Maggie?)
7:00 pm
MaggieDoodles

it's se5/10 - we're trying to get it without a clue for now, but we may have to give in and ask!
7:01 pm

7:11 pm
Jellen

Bye, metal.
7:11 pm
Jacula

The one-time fee is less than you'd pay for some computer games you'll tire of. You'll never tire of Babble and Babble's for life.

Refresh (press F5) to see my new icon. Mr & Mrs Robin have been very evident in the garden today, as they are every Christmas Day. Seems like they're telling all the rest of the birds, 'It's our day today. We're on all the Christmas cards!'
7:24 pm
Jacula

Not that any robin (unless a human Robin or Robina) would get a look in at any Christmas cake from this house! We all love it.
7:24 pm

Jacula,I hope you did not feel like you had to change you icon because of my icon. I will refresh to look at yours.

Min - No, not at all! I had lots of pics saved up to use.
7:26 pm
Jacula

Hello quilter. Yes, when you find a word you will see a ? in a box to the left of it on your word list. If you click on that ? it will give you the definition if there is one.
7:26 pm
Minveryork

Hi quitterbassoon! How are you? Merry Christmas to you

Welcome to Babbelonia, btw.

7:29 pm

Jacula, I refreshed and I can see your new icon, but when I click on your profile, I still see your old icon. I think that it is the browser I am using. It is Modzilla.

The word you seek, adorable, is to4/6 (warmth ratings for duvets/quilts.)
7:32 pm
Jacula

Or, it is also a slang word for clothes.
7:32 pm
Jacula

If it's Modzilla, Min, it's Firefox.

It will be weird to hear the alarm in the morning, scrabs...
7:54 pm
Jacula

So funny seeing you two talking like that. Once, my house was so tidy and correct... then came various disasters and I gave up on all but the neccesities re cleaning, tidying, even though it mixed my mind up even more. However, I got my groove back about 3 weeks ago, after a set back from people using my sitting room as a warehouse, and began to tidy and clean... I've nearly driven everyone in the family to distraction. They dare not leave anything out of place (the place I think it should be in) for more than 5 minutes. As for food, well, you might spot a cobweb or two still (high up, 'cos I'm only a short person) in my house, but you'll not go short of food. LOL

Take a deep breath Scrabs. Tell yourself that she is NOT in control of your destiny, and throw something unbreakable...
7:59 pm
Scrabbler

My mother enables my sister's poor decision-making and then wants to tell me everything.
7:59 pm
featherbee

it's much more fun to throw breakable things. i did that once. i was pregnant with daniel, and they said he was going to iraq. i wigged out, heaved an old canister set against the side of our barn. very cathartic.
7:59 pm

ended up he didn't go, thank goodness.

9:07 pm
Jacula

I mean do they just wee anyway, knowing it's not going to cause Mommy washing to do, or do they realise that thought it might be nice and warm and comfy to begin with, the mess soon gets cold and feels sore and uncomfortable.
9:07 pm
featherbee

he occasionally wakes up dry, but it's usually wet. he is fully daytime trained however, very rare accidents, like once every few months.
