And now off to Bloomies, hopefully for boots. And perfume. Maybe perfumed boots?
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They totally look black to me, ita.
Maybe they're just not black in LA. Or something. But definitely different on my LCD--I can see the fading patches too. Uniform black on my CRT.

I think a trend is blue/black demin, maybe it's that.
Okay, my iPod is making me crazy. The b&w charge button is on, but it keeps fading from my screen. It should be charged anyway...it was hooked up to my computer all afternoon. I'm jsut going to leave it for a while and let it charge.

Sue, my daughter's mini used to do that. When it happened she had to charge it using an electrical outlet not the computer and then it was all good.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
When one is mixing one's own scents with essential oils, can you just mix drops together until you get the proportion to your liking? Or do you have to add anything else to make them play nicely together, some sort of binding agent or something?
I just mix the essential oils. But then I have to be very careful to use the barest, tiniest smidge of a drop, or else I'm that person we've all been talking about whose scent is so strong that you can smell it for an hour after they've left the building.
That's why it can help to mix the essential oils in an unscented carrier oil, like almond or jojoba (basically whatever is in the bath stuff aisle of the store and labelled "body oil" will work). And some undiluted essential oils can be too harsh on skin, so, again, mixing them in a carrier oil is a good thing. I've never had the skin irritation problem with my homemade mix, though.

What is even happening?
I reminded JZ that her whole entire body was all whackaloon with a massive hormonal shift and that this combined with less sleep and lots of extra stress was a potent combination.
Phone conversation? I mean, you're alive and have limbs sufficient to post.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Shiny. User called because they locked themselves out of an application. Never had to fix this before, couldn't locate the correct procedure, but found one that was close and was able to figure out the rest on my own. I feel all accomplished, even if it was pretty simplistic.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
In other TV news, I'm watching L&O:CI from the other day, and I heard a trace of a familar accent from Logan's new partner -- turns out, she grew up in Medford, Mass! Damn, I'm good.
She's like one of the first good young women they've hired in a while. I like her! I'll watch the Logan eps for her.
