Oatmeal:
{{{Anne}}} Rest, sweetie. It sounds like your body is trying to tell you something.
Laura, that's utterly adorable.
I am highly suspicious of chocolate mouse peeps.
Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Bitchmind question: my nails are a freaking mess. I started biting them again and they are down to the quick and horribly ragged. I decided to spring for a manicure to cure the biting. I will need some sort of fake thing like gel or something, since the nails are so hideous. I want something which will make them look good now but will not be too horrible growing out. Plus, I like keeping my nails short. Am I asking for the moon here? What should I ask for?

sj, I'm very glad you're going (though sad I will miss you when you'll be right in town). I think you're right; you would always regret it if you didn't go.
I'm sorry I'm going to miss you too. Where are you headed for your Spring vacation?

ND's mom decided she wanted to take the family on a cruise, so she paid for the whole family (ND's sister & husband, niece & boyfriend; the two of us, and mom's caregiver) to spend a week on a cruise ship in the Mexican Riviera. I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth--it was amazingly generous and should be fun--but we should have some interesting stories to tell after a week trapped on a boat with the crazy fam.

eep that sounds... full of possibilities, Kristin.
I'm making banana bread. I just found out we're out of brown sugar. We have white sugar, dark brown corn syrup of dubious age, maple syrup and honey. I was planning to add chocolate chunks and butterscotch chips. Maybe I don't need additional sugar. Any ideas?

I have brown sugar that I am trying to teleport to you right now. Is it working?

If teleportation were working I wouldn't be sitting in a chair at an airport, now would I?
