Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Our wings are not tired.
ita, I really hope you're able to get through this day (and the meeting).
When I ate hotdogs 20 odd years ago, I loved 'em cut up in pork and beans.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh, good luck, ita.

Because books.
Sending no-pain vibes, ita.
Kat! I have three adult pairs of jeans to send you. Remind me of your current address in email?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Oh, did I mention here that I finally heat treated my jewelry? I wasn't sure it was safe to, but since I am relatively confident that I am bug-free, I did not want to wait another year for my jewelry. Anyhoo I wore round cut garnets in gold yesterday and today drop earrings with gold spiral and brown glass beads. Also wearing a gold chain necklace today.
I also put in gold studs into the second piercing on each ear (more than 6 months since they have been worn, maybe more than a year), darn that is sore here on day two. I am treating it as a new piercing just leaving them in, twisting and cleaning every night with alcohol.

Msbelle, yep! You mentioned that a goal was to wear more jewelry this year I think! You wanted to wear a different set each day for a week iirc.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
ita, I hope you make it through okay.
msbelle, you must be so happy to get your jewelry back. Note - alcohol/peroxide aren't recommended for piercings any more, nor is twisting. Probably not a big deal, but fyi.

Cleaning Solutions
Use one or both of the following solutions for healing piercings:
* Packaged sterile saline solution with no additives (read the label), or a non-iodized sea salt mixture: Dissolve 1/4 teaspoon of non-iodized (iodine-free) sea salt into one cup (8oz) of warm distilled or bottled water. A stronger mixture is not better; a saline solution that is too strong can irritate the piercing. * A mild, fragrance-free liquid soap-preferably anti-microbial or germicidal.
Cleaning Instructions for Body Piercings
* WASH your hands thoroughly prior to cleaning or touching your piercing for any reason. * SALINE soak for five to ten minutes once or more per day. Invert a cup of warm saline solution over the area to form a vacuum. For certain piercings it may be easier to apply using clean gauze or paper towels saturated with saline solution. A brief rinse afterward will remove any residue. * SOAP no more than once or twice a day. While showering, lather up a pearl size drop of the soap to clean the jewelry and the piercing. Leave the cleanser on the piercing no more than thirty seconds, then rinse thoroughly to remove all traces of the soap from the piercing. It is not necessary to rotate the jewelry through the piercing. * DRY by gently patting with clean, disposable paper products. Cloth towels can harbor bacteria and snag on jewelry, causing injury.
