Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Now tagless for your comfort.

ita, I don't remember--were you the one searching for non-fumey ways to clean your shower? Because I recently discovered the magic eraser for cleaning our tub & shower. They just use water and iit takes out soap scum like it was NOTHING. For once, they advertise correctly. It IS magic.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Huh. That's really cool, Cashmere. For a not clean-freak person, I have an obsession with finding just the right products.

Aha! It's ^H that makes Opera disappear. It goes into the notification area and disappears from the main window and the taskbar. That'll be handy for hiding.

I had Singapore Street Noodles (chicken, curry, vermicelli noodles) for lunch and it was yummy, plus I have enough left over for another meal of it. Now i want to sleep beneath my desk.....

I also vouch for the magic eraser. I have this fear that I am killing myself slowly by using it, but damn does it take off the goo left from when the cat rubs her face on the door jamb every day for 6 months.

Wonder how it does on Lush stains?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Good thing, because calzones are just so hard to find in mid-town Manhattan.

EAT IT.

(I changed my mind and got a cheeseburger anyway. I'm so fickle.)

Someone needs to test that and get back to us -- there are some lovely orange bath bombs I dare not touch.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I had Singapore Street Noodles

I love those, Theodosia.

I almost forgot. This morning on the way in, I saw a stupid human trick. A driver was turning right out of a strip mall exit about 45 feet from the intersection, and decided he needed to be in the left had turn lane. He must have needed it really really badly, since he forced his way across two lanes worth of cars stopped at the red light to get there, and then ran into the car that had the nerve to already be there.

I boggled, just a little.

Every time I use it, I keep asking myself, "what's it made of?" "How does it work?" The only answer I have is "magic". It's been great with the pregnancy so I don't have to spray anything toxic. And it's less messy than the baking soda/lemon juice combo I had been using.

Nutty, I just signed up for Gmail too. Frustratingly, they don't allow me to use just my standard online name, cause it's only 5 letters long. Pfeh.

And soon there will be Googletalk, I suspect. But not at the office, sigh.

I may need salad for lunch.
