I am not saying that it the Enquirer is wrong, I am sure that it is right, but just that "media" in the sense I think most people here use the term are NOT the ones reporting on Track's oxycotin use and vandalism.

Just got evaluated by a recruiter. I'm going to need makeup for any employer interviews. Not for the wounds--he thinks I look 18, and with my hair its natural colour I do think I look younger. So I'm going to need some warpaint for authority. They need to believe 18 years of experience.

That's interesting. I definitely think I should wear more makeup and jewelry to seem older, but it's hard! I could do it for interviews, though.

Jesse: Claims NOT to Be "Cowgirl" Photos inside!

Ha.

Hee. I'm more amused than I should be at Dana's mouse exploits. Would now be a good time to retell the story about how I was bit on the toe by a mouse? Because I was. Bit. By a mouse. Please insert comments about your sister here.

Pets can get into the snap traps, too. The Biscuit got his paw caught in one I thought I had out of his reach behind the fridge, back in the Pink House of Rodents. Mmm, peanut butter, he thought.

And I didn't like the covered ones because once I half caught a mouse in one of those and it was really nasty. And live traps so don't work past the first time because those mice are smart I tell you what. I have extensive experience in mouse traps.

I do not have extensive experience in interview makeup, though.

We tried some new kind of mouse trap that looked like a big pincher clip, and, swear to god, the mice were running across the trigger bit without a care. The thing went off--slowly--maybe 10% of the time. So back to the quick snap wire trap.

I've decided I have the nose of a six year old. That's the crux of my age problem.

That whole "steal your nose" thing is just supposed to be a game, ita.

Okay! My sister was bitten on the ass by a grouse.

because those mice are smart I tell you what.

My mother told me when we were having our mouse troubles that when she was a kid her father used to burn a match near the mousetraps that had caught one so that the future mice wouldn't smell the one just caught.

To all the crafty Buffistas:

I've become bitten by a jewelry making bug. What are good, fairly cheap sources of glass beads? I'm not looking for really fancy ones, my tastes run to small bits of individual colors.

Well, don't go breaking it, that's all we ask.
