Ok, YAY camels! But...Hmm. Camel milk ice cream? Kinda odd.

I'd still try it.

Theodosia should try it since she can't eat anything cow.

catching up...

Since the kids have been off on visitation, Avatar has been void from the tv for 5 whole days. My son adores the show and was Ang for Halloween, but I enjoy listening from afar or while reading. I consider "tv time with mom" quite valid even if I have my nose in a book.

As for smoking, I coated my lungs with full throttle Winstons in college. The theatre building had a large hallway lined with furniture positioned between the green rooms, make-up, and the stage entryway. You could always count on sitting in a blue haze.

I quit when I was 20, resuming every so often when the alcohol kicked in the cravings. This summer I relished in the new Camel exotic blend metal tins with names like Twist (citrus flavor), Snake Eyes Scotch, and Midnight Madness. The Twist is my favorite on special occasions. The tins are fairly groovy.

AmyLiz, let me know if you want some of these empty tins. I believe you know my email?

Indeed. How cool!

I tell you, if I ever quit smoking, I'll have to quit drinking, too. Not that I drink often or much, usually, but smokes and alcohol are the OTP for me.

I didn't start smoking until I was 17, I think. Possibly 18. I was going to bars at least. I would be figity as hell without them. They give me time to sit and think without bouncing all over the place.

I usually smoke Marlboro light 100's (Takes longer, more time to think), Camel lights (all they sell at the bar) or pretty much anything in a pinch.

Is Hil around? Thought she'd get a kick out of this: [link]

It's about the "Hmm... they may be a lost tribe!" group of Jews from India.

Aww, Bev.

You know, I hope you can all meet her some day, as she's a sweetiebean.

Man, all this smoking talk is making me want to smoke.

Which I won't, because even a couple puffs leaves me feeling miserable in the morning, but still. Good times, good times. I loved to french inhale and then exhale smoke rings. I got to the point where I couldn't exhale any other way.

Smoking is really tied to Poor Relationship Choices and Aggressive Flirtation for me. When I think of smoking, I think of curling up and having intense conversations about computers and meaning.

This minus computers and meaning and add politics and literature. Also, scotch.

PMM, what size is Lily wearing these days?

VW, she's in about an 18 month size.
