HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

And not a bad party either, though the Christmas one was my favourite. It's really nice when someone actually thinks about the fact that some people have children and give us something child-friendly to take them to!

Still, holidays are officially over. Christmas decorations are coming down today. For those interested, Santa did in fact succeed in eating all the biscuits we left him, and we are not telling the children that the tree was stolen by fairies. It Was Decided that honesty is a Thing, and we couldn't blame everything on fairies, and since we already have the Tooth Fairy and the Birthday Cake Fairy, that was plenty to be going on with.

Besides, now we're busy with all the fun of planning Em's birthday. In three weeks. Urgh.

I don't recall talking about it last night (I seem to remember being a bit busy with other things), but... any resolutions, darling?

	A few. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Care to share with the class? Or are they much too secret for that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	To (continue to) treat my lovely wife like the Queen she is. To (continue to, I hope) be the best father I can be. To go running with Galahad more. And you, darling? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, mine are much too secret to share. I like yours, though. All very good and worthy goals. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Milady. goodpublicity 2015-01-06 11:49 pm UTC (link)
	Well well. Aren't you the devious, one. I like to think so. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Milord. coruscating 2015-01-08 06:24 am UTC (link)
	Can't help it! It comes naturally. ...I suppose I could tell you one or two of them, though. If you swear to keep them a secret. The only change I'd make it rewording that second one "continue to be the best father ever." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Milady. goodpublicity 2015-01-08 08:20 am UTC (link)
	Oh, I do so solemnly swear, madam. I have my suspicions that you are biased in this matter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Milord. coruscating 2015-01-09 05:04 am UTC (link)
	Well then. My first two resolutions are as follows: 1. Be ~~less of a~~ nicer to my teammates and 2. Don't get pregnant. I'm not biased! I'm an expert. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Milady. goodpublicity 2015-01-09 05:15 am UTC (link)
	Very good goals. I think I could help in some manner in the second. Though I also feel partially responsible for past failings in that area. Little of Column A, little of Column B... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Milord. coruscating 2015-01-09 05:51 am UTC (link)
	Partially? Mmm, about 50%, I'd say. Bit of a collaboration, really. Well, maybe a little biased. But I do see more of your fathering than anyone else's. And it's almost entirely perfect, in my expert opinion. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I like it when no one remembers that some of us are parents. Saying that we couldn't find a willing babysitter was always a good excuse for not turning up to shit. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	coruscating 2015-01-05 04:01 am UTC (link)
	Yeah well you don't have a husband who really likes going to shit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mrnovember 2015-01-05 04:24 am UTC (link)
	A fact I'm grateful for daily. For multiple reasons. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coruscating 2015-01-05 05:50 am UTC (link)
	There is no hope for me to salvage that comment, is there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mrnovember 2015-01-09 02:49 am UTC (link)
	Not really. I'd just move on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coruscating 2015-01-09 04:56 am UTC (link)
	Move on. Yes. Won't even stop to thank you for not making that worse. Anyway I like going to things too even if League stuff is always far too late, but it's nice when I don't have to feel like I'm completely abandoning my kids to do it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mrnovember 2015-01-09 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	It's not abandoning your kids to go to some of the league's stupid socialising/publicity-seeking events. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coruscating 2015-01-11 12:34 am UTC (link)
	Well it feels like it sometimes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mrnovember 2015-01-16 08:42 pm UTC (link)
	Then that's just dramatic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coruscating 2015-01-17 04:52 am UTC (link)
	Well. Yeah. So? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mrnovember 2015-01-17 05:02 am UTC (link)
	What? I'm not allowed to state the obvious? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coruscating 2015-01-17 05:05 am UTC (link)
	Suppose I can't really stop you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mrnovember 2015-01-17 08:02 pm UTC (link)
	No, you can't. But if it eases the feelings of guilt any, just think about how your kids will be abandoning you for months on end when they leave for Hogwarts in a few years. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	coruscating 2015-01-17 09:08 pm UTC (link)
	You are a bad person. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	mrnovember 2015-01-17 09:24 pm UTC (link)
	Now you're the one stating the obvious. (Reply to this) (Parent)
