I have duct tape and Batman and Hello Kitty and Peanuts.

Where'd you find the duct tape ones?

We have a LOT of Star Wars bandaids in the basement. My mother gave Paul something like 7 boxes of them a few years ago. We tend to forget that they exist.

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

I bought Monkey pants today.

We got duct tape bandages at Target, Plei. I also have Sushi bandages which make me undeniably happy.

sarameg, I'm sory about using your bacon ones when I had a tin of sushi ones all along.

Thanks, bon! I marked the post.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Hey Lee: I think it's worth it to rent the DVD of Harold and Kumar just to put it in and *not* push play. I swear it's funnier than the rest of the movie.

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

Here some are. They're cool, but unfortunately those and Hello Kitty have gone unworn since I haven't noticed any booboos in time.

Lee, I don't have the beef, but I know someone who'll be getting them.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I always made fun of my mother for adding oranges as stocking "filler." I had no idea they were tradition. (Although I do remember from Little House on the Prairie the time they got pennies-- right? Big day!)

I never got the orange thing, and am still failing to. I'd imagine, though, Laura's kids would similarly fail to get it. I mean, they're in the backyard.

My sinuses are attacking me again. Atchoo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's a winter pre-trucking thing.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Jesse's right -- oranges are exotic as durians, if you're in, say, Nebraska in 18-whatever. I suppose having orange juice would nearly be unthinkable.

We're getting snow this morning, which is making the world white and exciting. Also exciting is that it's not going to stick, since it's 34 degrees now and only going to get warmer. Which means that it's a nice picturesque snow, which you can admire and then go about your business, secure in the knowledge that you aren't going to have to shovel or do much more than admire it.
