what's the Kprinkle thing from?

Somebody (Cybervixen? Not sure why I think that) was helping a kid with a homework assignment where they had to find a word that was one letter different from all of their spelling (?) words. But one of the words was sprinkle. The teacher had apparently not actually found a one-letter-away word for all the words. Kprinkle was the best one we came up with.

I {heart} kprinkle.

ION, gyros are messy, but also delicious.

I need to get new hooks or something for the earrings I wore yesterday. Everytime I wear them, one ear gets irritated. They are either too heavy or the hook is just oto thick.

I was having this problem the other day. I finally decided that the earrings were just too heavy. Then I hit on the bright idea to turn one into a lapel pin. It worked beautifully and I got tons of compliments and less ouch-y ears to boot.

I don't mind winter in places that can deal with it. I'm an Ohio girl after all.

But, in LA, when it's cold as it is at night, nothing is built to withstand it and that makes coldand cranky.

KPRINKLE!

it's cold as it is at night

I think it's the night temperature drop that's bothering me most. I get used to the relative balm of the day, and can't deal with turning the heat on at night. My windows are open during the day, and I look blankly at them at night and tuck the pillows under.

Okay, work rumours just ratcheted up my headache gear.

psst: Sue, move to NYC, less wintery.

It's tempting....

But, in LA, when it's cold as it is at night, nothing is built to withstand it and that makes coldand cranky.

I am not convince my apartment was built to withstand winter either. It seems to have no insulation to speak of. Thank god for polar fleece and my duvet.

Very few things are as funny as KPRINKLE.

Joe was so kind as to lend me his Nano today.

Now I remember why I don't listen to music when not at home, in the office, or in my car.

Because singing out loud and outright dancing on the sidewalk are looked down upon. You = craxy.

Especially when you aren't signing something most people would recognize. The lyrics from "Wicked" out loud, on a downtown LA street, make you look like a craxy person.

Specially "The Wizard and I". I almost did the Mary Tyler Moore toss and twirl in the middle of our plaza.

I will never forget the spreadsheet I made trying to figure out that problem!

Kprinkle does always make my day better.

Also, I am positive it was Cybervixen (and so weird that she posted today) because I remember her thinking how funny it was that we were all indignant that the teacher would give a problem with NO ANSWER!

I don't know what it is about my new place-- it's got windows in every room that we have pretty much kept open since we moved in in September. But no matter how cold it is, it will be warm in the apartment. I no longer fear the heat death of the universe.
