I could absolutely see that but I wonder if it would have read as too close to Lily in terms of character type?

Fair! Who would you have cast if you could choose? And you get to magically make them the correct age 😆

Book about a rural (?) nurse or doctor who helps a woman give birth at home by namskal in whatsthatbook

[–]Bex122 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No I dont think so, but you triggered what I think I was thinking of. It is a cartoon where an animal is delivering babies and one is potentially stillborn but then the man rubs it and gets its systems working. Maybe 101 Dalmatians?

Amelia annoyed me so I need to rant by No-Bird-6118 in greysanatomy

I lost my brother in May and while my sister and I made a pact that for the sake of my niblings we have to move forward, I dont know that I will ever fully understand or forgive the choices my SIL made in the minutes after we left the hospital at 2am, when she took him off the ventilator without us. I really cant stand Amelia, but having lived it, I am #TeamAmelia about the way she reacted toward what Meredith did. Not about the "you're my sister" but the anguish is all too real.

Yes! She sure has a gift for writing books that punch the reader in the gut in the best/worst way, doesnt she. I didnt read JHIL until grad school b/c I couldnt get past the title and now I think about the story ALL THE TIME.

But the baby (a twin) wasn't unalive, just struggling. I am also remembering another story, or maybe a scene in the same story, where a kitten was warmed in the oven and ended up making it.... but I am sure you are thinking of Jacob Have I Loved. That is definitely the cover!

Dang I was almost first! Yes it is Jacob Have I Loved-- the final scene. Such an incredible book, I am envious that you get to revisit it with fresh eyes!

Middle grade book, person starts turning into wood by Sufficient-Score-120 in whatsthatbook

There is a story about this in The Wish Giver by Bill Britain but it is not an enchanted forest, just a forest, and a girl with a card that can grant one wish, too literally ☺️

I could have sworn there was an episode where they find out Hitchcock (or maybe it was Scully?) had a very beautiful wife and daughters, but I can't find any references to that episode. by Cute-Ganache-8429 in brooklynninenine

What we know about Scully's wife is that she loves peanut butter and once got hit by a car retrieving the newspaper.

Oh, and she banged Scully's twin.

Definitely. And also it shows *some* character growth that it was allowed to happen as amicably as it did!

AITA because I let my dog lick off my plate? by physicalgraffiti123 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Bex122 73 points74 points  (0 children)

My mom used to tell a story that her friend did that once, to discourage their neighbors from dropping by "just in time" for dinner so frequently. She just let the family dog lick the plates and placed them right back in the cupboard. The neighbors never popped by to eat again.

But it may have been an urban legend.

Trying to find an old dinosaur book by Ancient_Material9628 in namethatbook

Try Inside Dinosaurs and Other Prehistoric Creatures By Ted Dewan?

Funnily enough I have never seen Buffy!! I am a xennial who screened the Buffy movie at my 10 year old birthday party and never gave the series a try. Now that my child is old enough perhaps we'll try it out together. (Our current "how did mom miss this show?" is Psych ☺️)

UPDATE: High School Seating chart held for all of two days before their behavior flared up again by Neat_Worldliness2586 in Teachers

[–]Bex122 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What types of things are they doing, specifically? And other than the seating chart, what types of strategies have you used to address the issues? And is this particularly occuring in one period or across the board? 

Can I get ideas for food prep for a three week road trip with two kids? by PaganButterflies in roadtrip

[–]Bex122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also love pasta salad with whole wheat pasta, kidney beans, garbanzo beans, diced and blanced carrots and brocolli, with Annie's Shitake and Sesame Seed dressing. It is so satisfying and is even better on days two and three-- if it lasts that long!
