I think it's cool, but my main reaction is owww.

Well, that and keep your needles away from my vajajay.

tiggy, your hair is so SHINY!!! I'm jealous. Are you sure you're not a key?

And wow, Hec and Matt G(can'tspellit) DO look a lot alike!!

I looked. cool tattoo. placement suggests insanity. unless the point was to scare everyone away

I find myself having a very weird reaction to that tattoo insofar as the part that pings my NO WAY! reaction is not that it's wrapped around her cootch so much as that it's the devil. Cree. Pee.

Random question for my manuscript:

My characters are hiding in a bit of woods (not a forest as such, just a few acres of trees and undergrowth) until it gets dark. Soldiers are looking for them--soldiers who aren't terribly familiar with the area and have a lot of ground to cover because my characters got several hours head start before their absence was discovered. But the soldiers aren't bumbling idiots, either.

Anyway, my characters have two recently dead chickens that they'd love to cook, but is it possible for them to build a daylight fire in such a way that the smoke wouldn't give their position away? I feel like the answer is no, and the chickens will have to remain raw and uneaten till dark, but I'm hardly an expert on campfires and the smokiness thereof.

Some fires aren't very smoky, but the aroma would be detected it seems.

It really is. Also, very pretty.

Back to work with me. Have a Good Monday all.

Somerville and Cambridge roads were about as messy as you'd expect, after the snowstorm yesterday turned into a 40 degree meltathon in the afternoon, and then the temp plunged into the teens overnight.

NE weather, how much don't I love you?

And then I found out that the teacher won't be in, so it's a "work on your projects" session. Which I could have totally done at home....

We had about 20 cms of snow, followed by a light showering of freezing rain, which turned into many hours of rain. It was slushapalooza this morning, but it's supposed to freeze during the day, so the evening promises to be slippery.

Also, my neighbors and I have adjacent driveways, and they pay a landscaper to come and plow the driveway and shovel the walk everytime it snows. The landscapers have been also ploughing my half of the driveway. Though It's awesome, because I probably wouldn't shovel it out otherwise, but it's nice to have it clear enough so that people coming to my house with cars have a place to pull in.

Steph! You're the neti person, right? I've been trying it this weekend. What with the dust mite allergies, sinus headaches and crying jags I should have a look see.

It does feel really weird, but totally not the weird I was expecting.

I really dig my neti pot, partly because I like the image I get of a tidal wave crashing through my sinuses. Plus I really like the weird feeling.

I need to *find* my neti pot, and I'll bet that will help with my sinuses' reactions to the furballs I'm cohabitating with.

Are we better now?
