let's talk about...

Well, Emeril wants to talk about spinach. I'm not in a spinach mood.

I am, however, tired hot and kind of cranky. I haven't done jack squat today at work -- either job-wise, or writing-wise -- and that's making me even crankier. I've wasted a whole day. Meh.

So, flist: what do you want to talk about? Gimme a topic. Ask me about an icon. Ask me about one of your icons. Comment porn. Ponder spinach, or eggs, or how the amount of laundry is directly INproportional to the size of the baby. Anything!

Who wants to play with me? *smiles hopefully*

I don't actually watch the Food Network, except when I'm here at work, so no, haven't seen the show. But I can PROMISE you that hearing her call him (her husband, yeah?) "Daddy" would drive me absolutely batshit. *g* It's just. Wrong. *shudder*

(Though I do like Toby Keith's "Whose Your Daddy" -- country song, if you don't listen to country -- it's kind of tongue-in-cheek.)

Yes, it's just weird to refer to your husband as daddy...unless you are talking to your child. And they do it ALL the time. I'm told it's a "southern thing" but I know LOTS of southerners who do NOT do this.

Southern? Uh. I've lived down here in the south for...coming on fifteen years -- Kentucky, South Carolina, and Georgia -- and I honestly can't say I've ever heard anyone doing that. Thank GOD. *g*

OMG, your icon. I'm dying.

Yep, I have family in Atlanta...and they don't do it...so I don't know, but it creeps me out!

*laughs* Had you never seen my Cramp icon before? Hee! turps33 made it for us, because, yes. *g*

And any version of 'momma' or 'daddy' said by one adult to another (married/cohabitating adults) just freaks me the hell out. *shudders*

OTOH, by law, in the state of KY, you can get married (with parental consent) at 14, so maybe if you venture into hill country, where the REAL rednecks live...

*shudders again*
