True Blood Swings Both Ways

I appreciate that True Blood doesn't pander to the "female bisexuality is hot, male bisexuality is gross" double standard. It's all okay.

I've known more than one person--women included--who will be very derogatory when speaking of gay men but say that it's okay for women to make out with other women. I call them on it. Why is it okay for women but not for men? That's ridiculous!

I'm straight and have no desire to make out with a woman, but a bisexual or lesbian woman isn't "gross" in my eyes. That's just how they roll. I don't understand why anyone's sexuality is a big deal, so long as they aren't molesting children or animals.

I even saw a post from someone on the fan page for True Blood's openly gay character Lafayette Reynolds saying that they didn't want to see Lafayette making out with another guy. Really? I think you'll be disappointed then. The character is gay. G-A-Y. He likes other guys. 

Seriously...sometimes people just make me scratch my head.

Lafayette is my very favorite character on True Blood, which is why I named this cute little guy after him. One of my rescue kittehs.

My cats seem to be of the impression that I want to smell their butts. They keep sticking that part of their anatomy in my face anyway.

cats Lafayette the Kitten dove into a full tub of water with me AGAIN tonight. Didn't learn the 1st time. Short on common sense much?

cats My cat is mountain climbing. I am the mountain. Unfortunately she used my boob as an outcropping to latch onto for her ascent.

cats 'Tis Teh Suck! I'm a bit allergic to my new kitty's fur. Never give him up though. Just means more antihistamine for me. :-p

cats Lafayette the Cat is a multi-tasker. He wants to cuddle, bite, and kick all at the same time.

Retroactive grounding

 

Is there any way to retroactively ground your kid? My son confessed to me today that most of the times he complained of diarrhea as a child, he was faking it to get out of something he didn't want to do. He just stayed in the bathroom for a while reading and flushed the anti-diarrhea pills down the toilet. I had to laugh, but at the same time, I kind of wanted to kill him. For years I thought he had a parasite or the worst intestines ever!
