Fun and games with small children

Last night, I went over to saffronhare's house for a ritual planning meeting. When I got there, Saff and L (another lady from Gaia) were in the office, and the smaller Princesses were frolicking in the living room.
Princess Sticky led me down the hall. When we arrived at the office door, she said, "Mommy, another girl's here." And then, she paused, looked up at me and said, "You *are* a girl?"
And I said, "No, not really", to which she replied, "Okay", and toddled off to cause havoc somewhere else.

At least somebody gets it. :)

Also, in support of content-free friday...

This post is a temporary anonymous zone. IP logging is off, feel free to say anything you want to say here in the comments. I will not try to look you up or find you out. Talk about your sex life, talk about the government, talk about your role-playing game, talk about whatever you like. There's a meme going round about who you'd like to lock up in a house for 24 hours and do interesting things with and what you might like to do with them, and you can talk about that here, too, because I think it's fun, but not enough fun to make a separate post about it.

Also, if you're into further free-range comment and venting space, check out the Unsent Letters Project. Okay. That makes this post not exactly content-free, but it's the best I can do on short notice.

EDIT: Also, today's Found Item is juicy.

FURTHER EDIT: I was thinking about why this anonymous commenting thing intrigues me. I think part of it has to do with authenticity. You sometimes can't get a real statement out of someone if they feel like they're being judged for it, that it will go down on their permanent record. So there's this whole other world of stuff going on that I'll never know about, and I'm not into that. I want to know. I always want to know. Granted, I don't know who's doing what, but I know things are being done. Sometimes it's tittilating, sometimes it's heartbreaking, but it's always interesting.

In other news

Gogol Bordello, April 4, at the Bottleneck in Lawrence.
Gypsy punk with an accordion, fiddle, chunky white boy rapper, and dancing girls with outlandish percussion. You'd almost have to see it to believe it.
Anybody want to go? It's not free, but it's cheap. $8, I think.

Also, somewhat surprisingly, when asked to produce music like Gogol Bordello, Pandora does. We are impressed.
