Among the perils of being the parent of young children (two little girls in my case, ages six and four) is that there are times when you find odd things on your computer. This place, for instance. I found it bookmarked, and I don't remember being the one to do it. Still, it does seem like a pleasant-enough place

There's a few UK folks here.

[ieter_amumon]

Would you be one of them, Miss?

[revolutionarize]

Yeah.

[ieter_amumon]

Then it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Miss. Might I have the honor of knowing your name?

Children have an extraordinary talent for getting into just about anything, I have noticed. Though i'm afraid I cannot be much help shedding light on the exact purpose of this forum. I am still not precisely certain.

And, goodness, that is quite the impressive resume. My name is Lettie. I own a bakery. But I am a native, so if I can be of assistance, I would be more than happy.

A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Miss Lettie. I certainly may make use of your wisdom--and I'm sure my daughters would be happy to enjoy a sweet or two in the process when they come to see me next.

Oh! You will have to tell me what they like! I will try to make something suitable.

Emily, my elder daughter, loves lemon cakes and marzipan. Little Haley, she loves anything with strawberries or chocolate.

I'm a doctor as well, though I work at the Veteran's hospital. It's nice to meet you though, I'm Mercedes. And I've been thinking about having children myself.

Dude. The guy is a total chick magnet today. XD

[ieter_amumon]

And a fine calling that is. An absolute pleasure to meet you, dear lady.

Children are a blessing, to be sure, and a challenge as well. If it isn't too forward of me to ask, are you married?

Can you blame them? Athena is much more personable.

I've never had any complaints with it. What's your specialty? General surgery or something specific?

That's what I always hear. Oh no, I've never had the fortune of being married. I can't even get a date. I've decided to have a family by myself.

Quite so. ^_^

[ieter_amumon]

I do mostly general surgeries. I like to help as many patients as I feasibly can.

No one special in your life? Surely that is a crime somewhere, Miss Mercedes. Not that I have room to talk--I just divorced last year. Single parenthood... it can be a trial by fire. My girls can be handfuls sometimes, and I'm not even the custodial parent.
