Is it really almost May? Oh, I can't believe it. This means I'm going to have to start planning for The Nutcracker soon. Of course, we have Swan Lake in July, but I've had that planned since January, and The Nutcracker... well, that is one ballet that never seems to get any easier to organize. Probably has something to do with re-imagining it, but not reinventing it? Anyway, it's much more complicated than you'd think. And that's not even taking the dancers' politics into account.

Needless to say, I am going to have a very busy summer. Very busy. ~~Anything to keep Jason distracted, after all!~~

	It's almost May! My goodness how time flies. I can't believe freshman year is almost over! It's been a blast. Hey, Lucy! How've you been? And how's cute little Tommy? It's been awhile since I last babysat him and I'm really starting to miss him! (Reply to this) (Thread)

Well, I'm glad you've enjoyed it, Hannah! College really does go by in the blink of an eye. Which is either a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you look at it!

I've been well, and Tommy's great as always, thanks for asking. And you? I think I must've missed the day you showed up here, but for some reason I'm not surprised at all. Third time's the charm, I guess? And, well, we haven't really needed a babysitter since Ben came home, but if something ever comes up, I'll be sure to call you! Tommy misses you too, it's really quite sweet.

Eeek! I sincerely hope not, I'm not ready for college to fly by anymore than it already has! I want to savor it.

And yeah, I came on here about the same time as Cassie did so I don't blame you for overlooking me! She told me about your appearance on the boards later, how exciting! And Ben's home? That's great, if you two ever want a date night feel free to give me a call! Who do you have, by the way? Reincarnate wise, I mean.

Then savor it! And maybe go to grad school. I hear that lengthens things a little.

Hm, I may have to talk to him about that! It has been a shamefully long time since we've had a date night... Keep your ears peeled, you might be hearing from me sooner rather than later!

And I have Jason Stackhouse, from True Blood? He's not very exciting. ~~Just annoying. And horny.~~

Yeah, I was thinking about it! I could become a certified anthropologist, maybe even go on digs! That would be way cool.

And sure thing! I don't have very many extra-curricular activities outside of studying, god that makes me sound so boring. But anyway! I'd be happy to do it whenever.

True Blood...? Oh! That's that vampire show on HBO, right? That's crazy, is he a vampire????

Oh, like Indiana Jones? Well, how fun would that be? You should go for it!

Aw, no, you're not boring. Just focusing on your studies? There's nothing wrong with that. But thanks! It's nice to have such a flexible babysitter, usually they're so picky.

Yes, that's the show, but Jason is definitely not a vampire. He's just a very stupid redneck. ... Hey! I ain't a redneck! Could've fooled me.

Yes, exactly! Or that cool Charlotte girl from LOST, but yeah. Digging around in the dirt for bones would be the coolest! In my humble opinion, anyway.

Oh! Well, I'm definitely not picky. Obviously. So you won't have to worry about that! I don't even need to be paid, really, I do it 'cos I love kids.

A very stupid redneck? Well... it could be worse? Do you two get along anyway?

As long as you like it, then I don't see anything wrong with it. I mean, personally, I'm not really one for digging around the dirt, but I definitely see the appeal!

Oh, don't be silly, Hannah. You're a college student. Never say no to getting paid for easy jobs!

Sort of, but not really? We have very different tastes, and that's hard to reconcile sometimes. We're getting better, though. ~~I think.~~

Yeah, not everyone is, I understand! Don't think I ever grew out of that playing in the mud phase from when I was a kid.

True. But I would still do it even if I couldn't be paid! I'm really okay with living off of snack packs for months at a time. Not the healthiest, but they're cheap and delicious!

Well, that's, good? Sorry it's hard! Hopefully it'll be less difficult for you soon. Wait, is Ben one too???

I think I briefly went through that phase, but yeah, it was very, very brief. I ruined one dress, and then I was out for good! Yes, I was one of those girls...

Well, mentally, that's very healthy! A lot of college students could benefit from an attitude like that. Instead of moaning about being poor, they could just roll with it. Why haven't more kids thought of that before?

Oh, it's okay, don't worry about it, Hannah. Yes, Ben's one too, and that helps a little. It's nice to know I'm not alone in this, you know? ~~Even if it is the weirdest thing ever.~~

haha, that's okay! There's no shame in being a girly girl. Just like there's no shame in being the weird girl who sits in a corner and eats her hair, right? I was that girl.

Thanks! I try to stay positive, it's important when you're stressing yourself out to the max on the daily and not getting nearly enough sleep. You should really have a talk with Cassie about that!

Well that's good, and I know what you mean. It's so much easier knowing that Cass is one too, definitely takes the edge off being around people that understand!

	Nope, no shame at all. I mean, look how far we've come since then! I'm so proud of us. Oh, I will, don't worry. She's not overworking herself, is she? Because then I really might have to talk with her... Yes, definitely! It helps to know you're not the only one who's crazy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_absorption 2010-04-19 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	Me too! We've turned out quite lovely if I do say so myself. She's double majoring? Which is a good thing, but she needs more sleep!!! Crazy is all relative, in my opinion. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sexonastick 2010-04-19 10:03 pm UTC (link)
	Can't argue with you there! Oh, dear. I knew a couple double majors. I don't think she's gonna get any. True. In my defense, I think Ben's a little crazier than I am, but I'm starting to think it's a good crazy! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_absorption 2010-04-19 11:00 pm UTC (link)
	~~Get any? ... Oh. I get it.~~ Probably not? But that's why she's got me, most nights I'm her pseudo boyfriend type! I help her count the silverware. A good crazy is good! Rogue is definitely good crazy. She has a bit of a murky past but she's good people, I like her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sexonastick 2010-04-19 11:09 pm UTC (link)
	Well, she's lucky to have you! Just keep reminding her to get some sleep, maybe one of these days it'll sink in. I'm glad. I mean, it's better than the alternative, right? [Hannah] Would you mind babysitting Wednesday night, maybe for the whole night? Ben wants to take me to a bed and breakfast. A special treat, who knew! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	_absorption 2010-04-19 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	I will! Definitely. [Lucy] Oh, sure! Wednesday night I'm totally free, so it's no prob. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Hannah] sexonastick 2010-04-19 11:38 pm UTC (link)
	Great, thanks so much, Hannah! Would, say, 5:00 PM work for you, or is that too early? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hmph. Well. In that case, you're forgiven. But Hannah's gotten me thinking... It has been an awfully long time since we've done anything special. You know, just the two of us. Maybe we should change that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	littlecocoa 2010-04-19 08:16 pm UTC (link)
	~~Really too easy.~~ Thanks, darlin'. Date night, huh? Why not, our time alone together for your birthday was such a tease. Why did we decide to have kids again? We should do something special. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	littlecocoa 2010-04-19 08:37 pm UTC (link)
	What can I say, after being away for so long I get this horrible guilt trip every time I try and say no to him... the kid already knows how to play me, that's worrisome. Hmmm. Maybe a different kind of special then we're used to? Feeling up to trying something new? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I. Um. Yes? But only if we take some precautions. I don't want us to do anything stupid while we're high, and I definitely don't want to be high around Tommy. So we should get a babysitter. And a hotel room. And tell people we're going to a bed and breakfast or something for the night. Maybe the next day too, V does stay in your system for awhile...

... Am I over-thinking this? I just, you know. Don't want any Jason repeats.

	No honey, you're thinking just the right amount. I'd be a little worried if we weren't thinking of our son at least? We can go away for a night. Hannah could babysit? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Ben] sexonastick 2010-04-19 09:40 pm UTC (link)
	I'd be worried too. We're responsible drug users? That sounds so wrong. I'm going to stop thinking about it. Okay, I'll ask her. Um, which night? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Lucy] littlecocoa 2010-04-19 09:55 pm UTC (link)

	Oh, Myles, I'm so sorry about that, still! I had no idea the Sugar Plum Fairy was going to be quite so picky about her costume... though I should've known, really, the ballerina playing that role always turns into a diva whether she means to or not.

	.... You didn't. Myles. You cannot say that to a ballerina! They take their weight even more seriously than models do! Oh, god, you probably gave her three different eating disorders. No wonder she left after that production! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
