I know he's only supposed to be a teenager and all that, but I think David Copperfield is SO hot. I nailed a daguerreotype of him to the front of the icebox, which caused my dh to make fun of me for most of the evening.
"Ha, Permilia!" he said, laughing and smoking his pipe. "I don't think David Copperfield is much interested in a 28 year old with six children and chronic fistula!" I don't think he'd laugh quite so much if he knew the quantities of rat poison I have stored in the pantry. JK!

Cough. Cough. Cough, cough, cough.
That Cyril Crumb ain't got the sense God gave a goose. Them muddy water leeches iz good fur purty much anythin' that ails a body.
Yeah, pretty much loved that, and I'm not really an 1880's ladies anything kind of fellow. Nicely imagined & filled out time piece.
I am totally LOLing right now, with tears streaming out of my eyes and everything.
My daughter keeps saying, "What? I don't get it?" and my son is annoyed that I am laughing while he is watching TV.
(And that comment was not due to any obligation put upon me by anyone)
And P.S. This needs to be a continuing series. I'm imagining blog posts about the mommy blogger wars, child care controversies, and health care reform.
Tooooo funny! And so very clever!
He he he.
I love it! (And I'm curious how you ever got the idea in the first place.)
Very well done, Beck, as usual. I do hope this is going to be your next series.
How very brilliant of you, and I fully expect to see another attempt shortly!
;-)
Love it!!! "hysteria of the womb." You crack me up.
Hilarious. More, please.
