Aims, I'm so sorry about L. Lots of ~ma for his swift recovery.

We will happily take coffee prep duty.

There is coffee in my post-apocalypse.

Good. because we would be some cranky bitches looting and pillaging otherwise. blow dryers or not.

And we'd probably be late to the looting. Or forget to grab bubblewrap.

eta: and forget how to spell bubblewrap.

All this talk of blow dryers and bubble wrap is making me think about the Great Shrink Wrap Debacle of Christmas 2004. t shudder

Lots of ~ma to L. What a horrible thing to happen.

Mini-meara ahoy!

Toys on my desk:

• Hello Kitty in red vinyl devil suit with black hair bow
• Heart-shaped Kuromi pouch
• Plush peanut with baby nuts that go inside (it zips up!)
• Small Totoro plush
• Small Totoro bunny (?) plush
• Small Jiji plush (kitty from Kiki's Delivery Service)
• Solar powered waving good luck cat
• Plastic gorilla figure
• Two orange plastic alligators
• Caped Stikfas figure
• 8 Pinky St. figures in a row (one flipping the bird!)
• Two pink tins, 1 with a Shag kitty and 1 with a Shag monkey holding a heart

Apocalypse skills:

• Increase sugar factor of surroundings (see resume above)
• Bring sugar shoes

Oh, that reminds me - last night at Walgreen's I saw Marshmallow Hello Kitty-pops.

Giant and I am sure - sweet enough to rot your teeth at a distance.

Oo! Toys on my desk:

• stuffed dragon
• stuffed iguana
• plastic camel
• Alaskan soapstone inukshuk
• magnetic Shakespearean poetry
• "Uses for Lard" sign (from 826 Valencia)

omg aimée! Much health ~ma heading to MI.

ION I may need some smitting. Those freakin' walking Petri Dishes did it again. Stupid A CHRISTMAS CAROL kids gave me a cold again, despite my efforts of avoiding backstage. Grr.

Bonny, hopefully I get that write up sent out tonight. I got a lil dinner party to attend, dunno how late it will go.

MM, I'll ditto ND comment.

Ah, yes - am at work. Can give toy inventory...

• 4 blow-up palm trees (how could I forget those)
  
• 1 White teddy bear
  
• 1 Mr. Potatohead in A's gear (what?)
  
• 1 Stuffed Tigger

Ok, shorter list than I expected. I guess all my A's posters, pictures, and such don't apply.

I have one good luck cat Dunny bunny

and double-decker bus (ROUTEMASTER: London's Bus of the Future) model.

I have very few post-apoc skills except dirty fighting. That might come in handy...

Aimee, it just sounds like that corset is lingerie-sized, because it probably doesn't have the steel bones that require measurements of several different parts. If I read it correctly, you order it by bra size.

I can cook, loot, and fight with a blade like a pro

I had a dream last night that I was fencing. I need to get back to that, assuming I ever stop injuring my left leg. (I haven't injured it again, after spraining my ankle, but I'm impatient with my ankle not being all healed yet.)

ION, I'm off work today and tomorrow to finish the interminable packing and clean the apartment. So far I've had my coffee, finished reading a book, and finalized a freelance project (so some of it was actual income-producing work, so there!) and sent it to the printer.

Now I pack. Grah.
