Dear Work, Leave Sara alone for just a night or two.

My lips are uberchapped and hurt.

Dinner with Alibelle was fun. I have stuff in the car I should go retrieve now that noah is asleep. good noah.

Pico, when he was an only cat, would sit in the tub and meow loudly and let the acoustics of the tub make it even louder until I came and turned on the tap.

Clio, when she was a kitten, would get in the shower with me.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Kat, Mary Kay makes a KICK ASS lip balm. I use it all winter and it keeps chapping at bay.

Work will leave me alone... next year. And then it will go insane again. (I put in my Nepal/Bhutan trip because it looks like launch will slip again and fuck that, the deposit has been made. But talk about clusterfuck. I'll have bought a new home, be leaving the country AND be needed at work. Um. I won't ask for a raise this year.) I'll ignore it starting Saturday, nothing more I ca do at that point.

Also, I've learned being well hydrated makes all the diff with regards to chapped lips.

It's actually the skin beneath the lip more than the lip itself. I've been using a shea butter that works. And the Hero Stick works. And so does Kiehl's lip balm.

The problem is that I have to have those things with me and I often forget.

I love this ring so much and I absolutely want to buy it. Except I think I should wait until after the first of the year.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"Heart-healthy" and "festive" are not words that should go together. There are 364 other days of the year to be heart-healthy. Serve a fucking shrimp cocktail.

ION, DH brought me my Hannukah present early - he got me a Soda Club!!! So tonight we had homemade seltzer with our salmon. It was nummy.

mmm... shrimp.

Barb, a little late , but my dad flew for Pan Am. I flew a lot as a kid. While my memoires are from a kid -- first class ( which is not how i flew) had good meals , choices, and there was always extra room on planes. and getting on a plane was less of a hassle. so it wouldn't surprise me if monied people would fly 1st class.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I have seen more than one cat drink from a running faucet. And knew one who would specifically ask for it to be turned on whenever I went into the bathroom at its house.

Mine does this, too. When I get out of bed in the morning, he beats me in there and waits on the sink. If, in my morning sleepies, I don't turn the faucet on right away, he licks it until I do.
