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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I don't have it on TV, so I can only watch the play-by-play updates on NFL.com. Also, your husband was kind of alarmingly intense about it when I brought it up on FB the other day.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, they just showed your catch on my game`s highlights. You weren`t kidding.

Hee, I know Dana! He`s not rational about the Colts` loss! But he just means it in that sports bravado way. Although I must say his sports trash-talk flaming is why I`ll never allow him over here. He`s a perfectly civil guy, but sports banter discourse expectations are, umm, somewhat at variance from our community standards over here.

I wonder if they could market it the way the Warner Brothers Archive does DVDs of OOP movies to-order, or Rhino's Handmade series.

There are a couple of companies out there that will "re-create" a discontinued color of lipstick or eye shadow. I tried it, and they got pretty close with the lipstick color. (Then I discovered that the original company still made my perfect color, but it was only available in the UK.)

Cosmetics is an EXTREMELY trend driven marker, maybe even more so than tech. If you follow it closely, hundreds of new products come out with giant ad campaigns each year, and maybe 3 or 4 of them have a 10 year life cycle. And that's just product lines, I'm not even counting individual colors.

Especially since the cosmetics industry figured out that if something is limited edition, people will go crazy trying to get it. Or will buy multiples to stockpile.

I'm just saying, no one's allowed to call them The Aints but those of us who lived through it. (Also, they were hardly "handed" that Super Bowl. Someone's still grumpy about the onside kick.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm watching (DirecTV Sunday Ticket) but I'm kind of distracted.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, for sure. And seeing as how the onside kick came up repeatedly in conversation during the game against KC today, I`d have to say your assessment is correct.

This drive did not help my mood any.

Haven't they called like three false start penalties on Stinchcomb? What the hell is going on?
