Shhh, don't give away the secrets of middle age! I want these hipster children to be as miserable as possible at the prospect of their forties.

the secrets of middle age

Isn't it GREBT when the kids are finally gone from the parental house?!

There is a slight prospect that one daughter may return to living with us when we are back in Seattle, but we will just make her wear blinders and headphones at all times when in the house.

See, that's what I was talking about. Don't worry Sam, Jaq was just kidding -- it's actually illegal for anyone over 40 to have an orgasm.

I Am Curious (George) (Slight Return) (Rock Hardy), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:08 (seventeen years ago) link

well, I'm well on my way then.

Ms Misery (MsMisery), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:15 (seventeen years ago) link

I have just freaked myself out by thinking of the Gear sofa/trucker hat thread, only IT'S YOUR (MY) PARENTS OUT THERE IN THE LIVING ROOM! GAH!!! SCRUB OUT MY BRANE!!!

Also, not humid as beaf stew anymore.

nklshs (nklshs), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:24 (seventeen years ago) link

ACK ACK ACK

I was in Memphis with my dad last weekend. We were in my favorite Asian grocery and I pointed out a display of ginseng drinks and said "apparently that's supposed to put lead in your pencil." Dad said, "I should get some then -- since my surgery [5x heart bypass] I haven't even had a piss-hard." ACK, JESUS CHRIST, I DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW THAT, THANKS DAD.

Yes! Not doing much to quell those "nu-Killy" charges, though.

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:45 (seventeen years ago) link

Killy has the same hair? Well, crap.

Sorry Killy. :(((

Jessie the Monster (scarymonster), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:47 (seventeen years ago) link

With nu-hair you look almost exactly like the bride from the first wedding I ever performed. I married her to a big hairy sasquatch of a metal musician. The ceremony was improvised stoneredly, outdoors, under a starry sky, on April 20th 2004. Good timez.

It is confirmed: I will post ANYTHING to ilx.

nklshs (nklshs), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:48 (seventeen years ago) link

You perform weddings, Nick? That's pretty cool. A friend of mine was certified online and I've now been to two ceremonies he's officiated.

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:49 (seventeen years ago) link

It's okay, Jessie. There was a time when Killy was nu-Sugarpants. In a while, people will forget about you and move on. :D

jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 1 September 2006 17:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Totally! I did my sister's wedding back in June, it was kickass. We had the ceremony and reception on the family farm, it was such a freaking awesome time. My grandpa has called me "right rev" ever since.

I was dating a big hairy sasquatch of a metal musician on April 20th, 2004. But we didn't get married (thank god).

Jessie the Monster (scarymonster), Friday, 1 September 2006 18:46 (seventeen years ago) link

when I first read that I thought it said "I was eating a big hairy sasquatch. . ."

damn this thread!

I went to see Waits (in Memphis)--these are the recordings that are coming in :)

How can one not want to log in such glorious activities as riding the bus and towelling off after a shower? It's a great thing!
