I am paneer's bitch. It's the niftiest cheese EVAH.

Also, Cindy, maybe you were thinking "paneer" = bread b/c of Panera Bread Co.

I might even have picked something up for a certain someone back at home...but she doesn't get to know what it is, nyah!

SA, if it's me, and you got me B Never shower gel, I would kiss you kiss you kiss you. (And yet, with the dollar being worth, oh, NOTHING in Britain, do NOT feel compelled to support the British pound to get me anything, b/c I have issues with paying almost double when you don't have to.)

ARGH- the house that I was so excited that was on the market (I only found out about it yesterday, and started houdning the realtor immediately) had a bidding war after the first day of showings, and is under agreement. I guess it was not meant to be. I *knew* that house was too cheap to last!

I am bummed out though. I felt really confident about exploring options to acquire the house. Wah!

you might as well revel in your (not quite) evilitude.

Hah! Not a sucky soundtrack, either. Arr. The bits from Restless and Hush are cool.

Oh, and, Polter? You can note my tags anytime you want, fella.

connie has a new tag!

what's for lunch seems to be the question of the hour. i'm so sick of fast food and the like that i can never think of anything. i know i want some yummy sweet tea and Sonic has the best of that, but i had the food for dinner last night.

maybe i'll just go get a burger from somewhere.

also? my lips are on FIRE!! i forgot my normal chapstick this morning so i have reverted back to Sephora's Lip Venom. this stuff really does require you to have some kind of masochist gene in your body.

i forgot my normal chapstick this morning

This is why I have chapstick (or some other non-burny lip balm) stashed every place I could possibly need it. Purse, car, desk at work, bedside table, bathroom, pocket of 2 different coats.

One must always be prepared for a chapping emergency.

my lips are on FIRE!!

I was surprised to find that Burt's Bees is like that -- it's like a mentholated cigarette for your lips. Very weird.

I also have chapstick everywhere I can think of -- in my desk drawer, in my nighttable drawer, in my purse... I hate chapping emergencies.

That burning for me presages a rash. Lips are not good places for rashes -- well, perhaps no place is, but lips are worse than many.

So I use vaseline, and one specific vitamin E balm if I'm not wearing lipstick. It's scattered everywhere, since I'm in pain with an hour of needing it -- and recently my lips have become so sensitive that I can't make do with most face lotion.

Also, Cindy, maybe you were thinking "paneer" = bread b/c of Panera Bread Co.

Yes, because "pan" is bread in Spanish, I think "panis" is bread in Latin, and "pain" is bread in French (isn't it? I never took French, but always figured "Au Bon Pain" mean something like Hey! Good Bread!), and we bake bread in a pan. I know there are languages with Indo-Eurpean roots, so I thought maybe there was a link.

and "pain" is bread in French (isn't it? I never took French, but always figured "Au Bon Pain" mean something like Hey! Good Bread!)

Pain is bread. "Au Bon Pain" literally means something like "Of the good bread" or "At the good bread."
