Vicki and Michel...
We’re still in a bad mood but nothing like talking about a hand job to perk us right up.
Lots of sex tangents. It's like memory lane, you'll agree.
We mention Natasha Bedingfield but we really meant Natalie Imbruglia. Ahem, our bad.
Bedazzled - do you love that movie as much as we do? Also, Brendan Fraser was hot.
Deviation count: 238

Moving our bodies every day is keeping us sane, mostly. Fully support.

How long has it been since we’ve heard a Fasha story? Too long, we say. Thank goodness that ends right now.
Vicki is a perma-grouch now and maybe that’s just how it’s gonna be. Anyone else feeling this way? Orrrr is this what they call depression?
How much have you told your kids about se...
The elimination, over decades, of all the things we have to busy or bother ourselves with, whether it be with housework, parenting, socializing, or work - maybe it’s flattening us into something really lame.

Michelle and Vicki talk a little about what its like to be sick these days, what living with cats is really like, how donating plasma is actually super chill, how trying new things doesn’t mean you can’t change your mind, why putting your partner down in front of friends can be sticky, and that talking about sex with your partner should be normalized.
Thing We’re Loving:
Michelle is loving ...
Let’s kick this off with a mom anxiety moment complete with a phone call to school.
And saying we’re sorry is sometimes ok, especially when it comes to chicken wings?
We got our ears pierced at Claire’s and made a new friend? Also, should these holes still hurt?
Michelle tried something new and unique! She’s only half way through the process of plasma donation, yes, plasma dona...

Laugh out loud moments, guaranteed.
Did one of us cry, absolutely.
