(no subject)

My daughter is sticking pins into my little pincushion face and yelling, "Fatality to the $body part!" Before that, it was piercings but quickly got more brutal. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or not.

We ended up looking at extreme body modifications (the clothed kind). Ellie doesn't want to get any piercings. I told her it's fine either way - she can grow up to get a lot of them or get none at all.

I only have ears. I did have my ears double-pierced, but I'm sure those holes closed up a long time ago. Looking at pictures, I think about getting my nose pierced, but I don't think I really want to.

Ellie said the pincushion would be a boy, and when I figured out she was doing hair, I said that women could have really short hair, so then I showed her pictures of bald women. I didn't realize until later what I could have oh my god gotten in the image search, but luckily all the images were of those bald in the traditional sense.

This is one of those times where I don't know if I'm a good parent or a bad one or just lazy. "Hey, let's look at weird pictures on the Internet and give you ideas for accessorizing my pincushion!"

Work was okay today, except we had one of those meetings where I feel like I'm hopelessly lost because our approach keeps changing, and sometimes I just don't feel in the loop.

But tonight there is sewing, Internet, and pictures. Sometimes that's enough.
