Ok, just tried returning Ms. Louise's call. Got voicemail. She sounds so beaten down in it. Even her usual praise-the-lords sound resigned. Sigh.
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

But I have this elaborate television watching plan for NYD. First, sleeping in, because we'll have some of the kids over for NYE, which I did by accident. Then watching the parade. Then the NHL Winter Classic. Then the Rose Bowl itself, go buckeyes.
And this is our plan to, except I think we are screaming GO DUCKS! I mean, yeah, I'm from Ohio but I like the Ducks for no rational reason. In other words, I'm trying to tempt you to come and visit. The limiting factor would be, of course, work the next day.
If we have no visitors on NY, then we may forego some of the tv and go to the aquarium instead.

Yankee Candle usually gives me a big old headache, and I give their stores a wide berth. But I really like their lemon lavender scent.

This is Abercrombie and Fitch. But without anything redeeming. My Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shampoo (which K loves) is almost done. I think I might try the lavendar mint instead as it must be more moisturizing and less stripping my hair.

I don't think I've been in a A&F in recent memory. I have an unnatural fondness for non-sweet lavender scents. As long as they are spicy. Mom complains they smell of old lady, but like all the ones I have, so I'm guessing she's thinking of the sweet versions.

It is tempting. I feel tempted.
I also love the aquarium! So no fail there! I actually was thinking about taking the train over to Albuquerque for their zoo/fishes/botanical garden during break.
Poor Ms. Louise.
And bleargh to family drama, ita. It's too bad it has to happen around stuff like that, but it isn't uncommon.

A&F smells like date rape and beer. Or at least the scent that they blast from their stores does. I doubt that they would name their cologne that, but that's what it smells like to me.
I want to take the train to Albuquerque for spring break. That would be AWESOME, but too expensive for us.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Man, the soundtrack for Gladiator sounds exactly like the soundtrack to PotC. Zimmer, but you'd think he knew more than one theme.
