I'm watching an interview with him right now.

is it fucking great?

Empress? I can't imagine I'm ahead of you in this particular arena, but just in case your radar malfunctioned, some damp Danny Radcliffe went up on my site today.

HMOG. I hadn't seen those!! Thank you ita!! You've made my morning!!!

Em's visit went very well, thanks for all of the sharing from Stephanie, flea, Sparky, and ... crap - I'll have to go back and double check. Em got to play with the water buttons that supply the spit bowl and water cup. She needs to work on spitting out the toothpaste, not swallowing it and also getting the inside of her teeth. The hygenist brought out the big teeth and big toothbrush to show Em how to do it, and that was the only part Em freaked out about. "I don't like those teeth, Momma. They're too big." Such a funny girl. But she picked out a purple fish toothbrush and a purple pull-string helicopter. I also declared it Backwards Day, so after the dentist we went to Dairy Queen where Joe and I got Peanut Buster parfaits and Em got an ice cream cookie. Joe went on to actually eat dinner. Em and I did not. Bad mommy.

Um. I have had a dramatic haircut. I love the back and I love the sides and I love the front...except that I'm not sure whether the fringe (aka 'bangs' in your amusing foreign parlance) was a good idea. I'm swinging wildly between 'yes!' and 'OMGNo!'

Because Louise Brooks? Much thinner than me.

I think I maybe look a bit like a chubby Vulcan. I'm just trying to decide whether Chubby Vulcan is a look I can rock.

(I blame Cate Blanchet for this sudden decision to get a fringe.)

VW, or anyone else feeling crafty this am - I'm looking for a cheap & fast source of fabric-wrapped floral wire (hopefully around 16/18 gage. I've found a few places, but keep backing out because they're not using paypal. I don't know what _that_ says about me, other than I've swallowed paypal's marketing hook line and sinker, but if you know of a good craft-supply place that is paypal friendly, can you let me know?

thx!

There's only one way to find out! Ask out that guy. Your new hairstyle gives you the authority! Trust me, I know Victorian dating rituals, being as how I live in Victoria.

Both "never mowed a lawn before" and "sex club and parents" send me to that "not in Kansas anymore" place. My dad handed off the yard work to me as soon as he could. Unfortunately, he still felt free to dictate every aspect of *how* I did the yard. My mom doesn't understand how I can like yard work after that, but it was such a relief when I was free to do the yard (or not do it) however I pleased.

I have contemplated the phrase "sex club and parents" for a while, but the words still have no meaning.

ION, the elves have made off with a present I bought for a shower that is tomorrow. They're now holding the baby shoes, a camera, several items of clothing and a pair of shoes hostage somewhere.

WOOT! My unemployment check got cut! Should be here by Monday!

Yay check!

I can't imagine Fay looking anything less than marvelous.

Now I'm just trying to figure out what "mowed a lawn" is a euphemism for.

They also took my wrist brace, which is pissing me off, because my wrist hurts really really REALLY badly (mowing the lawn did NOT make it hurt worse; it just hurts because, well, I have massive inflammation).

I've looked everywhere, and I have no idea where I lost the brace. The only place I didn't check was the gym, although I really don't think it was there, but then again, if it isn't there, then it probably really did get taken by elves.

I get a steroid injection this afternoon for my wrist, which will hopefully not cause anaphylaxis and kill me (since the oral steroids I took 2 weeks ago made me all itchy). It's a different steroid, and I think my Dr. will make me stay in the office for 30-45 minutes to make sure I don't die. I should ask for an epi-pen too, now that I think of it.

He's pretty sure that the allergic reaction was not to the steroid itself, but to the inactive ingredients in the pills. Since an injection has different inactive ingredients than a pill does, it should all be okay.
