and I think Steph has done more cleaning than I have .

You might think so, but no. I've merely rearranged the rubble.

And I gotta hop in the shower in about 2 minutes, so the cleaning is officially over.

I just fell asleep at my desk. Amazingly, the pile of invoices I was working on is alphabetized correctly.

Oooh! I need to know how to do that (modified) to my hair for Halloween!

Pin curls.

My hair is way too short for pin curls now. (And yes, I even bought bobby pins last week, knowing that I was going to try to do pin curls, and then I went and told Julie, "Shorter? Why not?") When I get out of the shower and my hair is dry, I'll take a picture, Alfalfa or not, and show you.

And don't say finger waves, b/c first, I would look ridiculous, and two, finger waves aren't exactly right for the housewife look. Though neither is Alfalfa, but I'm still not even trying finger waves. (Full truth: I don't like the way they look, really on anyone.)

(Also, I would totally send you my precioussss electric blue Bela Lugosi's Dead import 12" single from high school

Droooooool.

The pet DJ has the glow-in-the-dark 12" single of that. I covet that one, too.

Pin curls.

Hec beat me to it, but yes, Steph. Pin curls are how you would achieve that look.

My breastmilk squick works out this way. I am very happy to be a food source for my daughter. I'd happily give my excess milk to a milk bank, if I had any. I'd even consider using it for myself (maybe) if I needed to (like the case Plei mentioned) for my daughter. But for me, I draw the line at the idea of using myself as a raw material for soap or cottage cheese.

If someone tried to serve me homemade breastmilk cottage cheese, there is no way I could eat it.

I can't eat cottage cheese anyway...many many food squicks are activated by the thought(shudder)

erika and I are as one. Cottage cheese is foul.

Tonight I'm buying an acoustic guitar. Tomorrow I'm going to see Common. Good weekend!

Sparky1, in case you were wondering, my access to that web site was fixed in NY, and is now, I am told, working 100% of the time there, even though their fix made it considerably slower than it had been before.

Of course, it never didn't work in NY, and it's now much slower to not work here than it had been.

HaHa! What did you do to the Tech people to make them hate you so much?

Hmmm...I just sent a kinda mean email to an entire department that's been pissing me off for a year. It felt really good to write, but I suspect it'll bite me on the ass. I did cc my boss on it so it's not like it's gonna surprise him. They're pissing him off, too.

While you're writing mean e-mails, could you please send this one?

Dear Ginger's Sister:

Please stop sending her e-mails with the same question in them that all say "Please reply." at the end. One, Ginger has to step away from the computer sometime. Two, "please reply" makes her want to not.
