Nice guys.

They take 'rough sex' to a whole different level. It really is brutal. On the other hand, they do make very careful fathers. They will tend the eggs diligently until they hatch, constantly blowing water over the eggs to keep them wet as they sit in the floating nest, often doing this around the clock, keeping this up until the fry swim free.

Of course, then they often eat the babies...
Having been a substitute jr high school teacher for a year while I was in grad school, I think I can understand why this could be a good thing.

One more small glass of Bombay Sapphire, then off to sleep... perchance to dream that we don't get tarred and feathered by the "MRMA" (MobileRead Mother's Association.)

Malthusian Theory can be sooooo difficult to implement!

Very pleasant tea. It has got a distinctive flavour, that I usually miss in white teas.

Second infusion.

Imagine my surprise at stumbling into this chat lol. I checked the board name twice. So I'm on cup 2 of dunkin' coffee that's freshly ground and in a nifty green metal no-spill cup. This cup is a gift from the divine. It allows me to chase small children...while moderately conscious and without endangering them with the hot brew.

Iced regular Coke. Desperate for caffeine.

Water again, although might go for a diet pepsi later on, but the day is long...was long... whatever. Found a Benetton Outlet. How good is that ? Went there while waiting for Petit Prince's tennis lesson to finish, was very efficient, emptied the shop in 45 min top. Very proud of myself, so jewish princess today

The MRMA will not tar you guys. Or at least I won't. It is ok not to want / like kids, life can be fantastic without kids too.
