I learned how to there, in the basement of the Infinite Corridor. I haven't done it since then, but I still am quite proud of my letter opener (sized for my small hands).

"interview me, please." at least it will give me something specific to write about, rather than trying to cover what I've been doing during my blog silence.

Very, very scary. I hate that it even has to be talked about at this age. Good job on the lists. You did more in ten days than I have in a long time.

Yet, I'm not sure I'd agree to an interview. Besides that it would take a heap of thought power on my part ... I'm not convinced that I should take the chance of revealing the real Stitchingnut to the blogging world. BTW, I resorted to browsing the public library for books on sex to read to the kids (each, one on one) and had them ask me questions at end of each chapter. I answered the questions as simply and as honestly as possible. I'm sure there's a book that's right for the subject you want to talk to little man about. The sooner you do it the better. I suggest the library because you can sit down and quietly go thru the books alone first. (they have all age levels) Frankly ... I learned things that even I didn't know. ;-) Now about that dream of learning to break dance ... you're aspirations are higher than mine girl. I'm not so cool.

Love your answers. Number 3... my chest tightened up just reading your answer. If you haven't been overwhelmed by the response then add me to the list to interview please. Damn you’ve been busy!

Hilarious, and much needed at the end of today. I am also on a manic spreee - cleaning/painting/gardeningOMGIT'SSPRINGG!!!!, and it's good to know that I'm not alone. And that I'm not the only person who loves their lists, because it sure feels that way sometimes. As for talking to Little Man - oh, so hard. I feel for you. I don't know if it'll make it easier now (it's aimed at teenagers), but you could pick up the book S.E.X. by Heather Corinna. She's the creator of scarleteen.com, and an amazing activist/author/artist (and a friend), and her book is a great resource for this sort of thing. "Interview me, please". It'll be a good kickstart to my blogging. I've spent far too much time playing on Ravelry and washing dishes. Your interview? Hilarious, and much needed at the end of today.
