I sometimes wonder if I'm too much of a prude or if it's just as appalling (I know! Such a fuddy-duddy word!) as I think it is.

helping out with my daughter's birthday party, and we went to Target for some things. He kept looking at his phone, I noticed, but I didn't think anything of it. Then this little sixteen year old goes by us and I was teasing my nephew (who is barely seventeen) about her. Know what he said? "Been there, done that."

My jaw dropped. One thing led to another and he tells me that girls approach him all the time. He said it just happened and I'm like "I didn't see anyone". So he pulls out his phone and shows me the picture a girl just sent him of herself - from the dressing room where she stripped her shirt off before taking the picture!

Then, while I'm scraping my jaw off the floor, he scrolled and showed me some other girls' pictures. Apparently it's some weirdly ordinary occurance where girls will take nude or semi-nude pictures of themselves and send them to him. The girl in the dressing room sent a follow up text telling him he was such a 'cutie pie'.

So. Appalling. Y/Y??

My daughter's party was today, even though her birthday is tomorrow. It went well, even though we had some no shows and the wind would NOT stop blowing. I got some sun, and my daughter got a face full of cake. I'm glad it's over. I am not a naturally social person so every birthday event is a litmus test of stress and anxiety.

Finally, I can stop thinking about it.

Gabs, I got your PM, I am brainstorming, and now that I have some free time, I'll be able to talk to you about it. I didn't forget, boo. *hugs*

I warn you - send a nude pic to someone and it WILL end up on the internet where you will be oggled by millions.
