I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Teppy, logically you are completely right.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Embrace the logic! I care about your sanity, dang it, not spiffy ribbons!

Well, spiffy ribbons ARE spiffy. But I still think people can live without them and Christmas will manage to go on.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Oh, dear. Condolences, DJ, I'm so sorry.

Frank, glad your brother's surgery went well.

sj, carry some ribbon in your pocket. If anyone whines about where's their ribbon, wrap it around their head.

Steph, I hope you've learned your lesson: ignoring Buffistas who tell you to go to the doctor gives you pleurisy.

Hil, if they're growing in straight and not gonna crowd your other teeth, leave 'em. Otherwise, yank 'em. Mine were growing forward, as if *aimed* at my other teeth. Had to come out. But please, find another dentist besides Dr. Won't-Commit-to-an-Opinion.

Not their throat?

Oh, that disappeared a long time ago.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Deciding factor was that it hurts. Thus, yanked today. Now, hurts a lot more, but that should stop soon.

Had to call three different Chinese restaurants before finding one that would put sesame noodle sauce on rice noodles.

What a pain. I'm glad you found one, and I hope you are able to eat.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Oh, I forgot to tell you earlier. There's a new Thai restaurant in our little town. It's the first Thai restaurant here. And as a matter of fact, it is the first one near anywhere where I have lived. So when we went to it today, it was a first. But I had heard that it was really good - everything so fresh, and the spring rolls were especially good. There was an article in the local paper about the place, that mentioned that many customers come in and ask advice about what to try, naming a couple of dishes that make a good introduction to Thai food. So we tried the Chicken Pad Pak. It was very good, but I discovered the chili sauce at the table is exponentially hotter than what they have out at our favorite Chinese restaurant. I really liked the spring rolls, even though they were very different from anything I had ever had before. I liked the weird sticky texture of the rice wraps, against the crisp veggies. I look forward to trying a variety of new dishes there, and a little sad that if I do, then it will be a while until I get to have the pad pak again.
