The younger one still had the super-high voice thing going, and the older one was maybe 2 years older.

Anyway, they were in front of me in line, alone, with a $5 bill. They stood in line chatting with each other nicely, and moved along in the line just like real people (i.e. adults) and the little girl smiled at me when I was IMing rp from my bberry. Then they ordered just like real people (apple cider) and paid just like real people, and the cashier directed them to the place where the drinks appear, and they stood and waited for their turn (minor disagreement about who Mommy said could hold the change) and then they both thanked me (the little teeny girl with a charming, bright smile) when I moved the drink to where they could reach it (stupid barista).

Then they walked outside to where their mom was and sat down.

Wow.

Oh, dearest, this is sweet. Still, I'm sorry, but we were right when we decided it just wouldn't be fair for us to bring children into our world.

I was trying to make this a different kind of Friday.

Which means I am wearing yoga pants, with an elastic waist.

And lets just say it was far enough that a bunch of 3 year olds will be telling their parents tonight at dinner "The Brazenette's mommy doesn't wear panties."

"Brazenette's mommy is tiddy down there."

The mere notion that a 3 year old could differentiate between grooming habits makes me shudder.

How about, "Mommy, the Brazenette's mommy doesn't have hair down there like you do!"

Sounds like somebody is ready for a new career as a children's book writer!

"We don't say 'Tiddy,' Timmy, we say 'differently-groomed.' 'Tiddy' is a value judgment."

Bet now you see dads bringing the kids over for play dates.

And by the way, the new paralegal that they have hired here has the shortest dress I have ever seen on a person. It looks like a sweater that goes just below the waist that was stretched for a minute or two. It seems like those dog sweaters that leave the nether bits free.

Sheesh. The Brazenette hasn't worn diapers almost a year now. Well, except for to bed.

No like Daddy does to Jets games.

Is she someone who should be wearing such a "dress"? If she can pull it off, quit yer bitchin. I'd become physically ill if any of our paralegals tried to pull that off.

Which means every dad you meet from now on will initially think about your cooter when you run into each other.

No biggie, they were usually thinking about your tits anyway.

I think that is sweet. They sound like well behaved, well brought up little kids.

You're not going to get anything out of that witness anyway. Re defending, just object to everything.

Now go talk to that hot little chickadee.

Is that a mandatory guy-thing? I notice it with each infusion of new people. The obligatory drive-by of checking out of the ladies.
