See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[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.

Our wings are not tired.

I'd be too chicken to parasail and don't know how the Atlantis dolphon encounters are, although the price is normal. I'd go for the sail and snorkel for sure. I don't get the power snorkel. I always like the quiet lazy snorkel adventure myself. I find myself just gazing in one spot for long stretches of time and not really moving around lots. That and catamarans rock.

eta: 2 votes for sail and snorkel!

I went parasailing once and it was really awesome. Not at all what I expected - i was anticipating a sort of roller-coaster, adrenaline and excitement thing. Instead it was stunningly calm and quiet and almost meditative. That does look a bit pricy though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That and catamarans rock.

It looks like they're both on a catamaran, but one is power and one is regular.

I don't get the power snorkel. I always like the quiet lazy snorkel adventure myself.

Power snorkeling IS lazy! You don't have to do anything; you just get propelled! I...guess. I snorkeled in Hawaii years ago regular-style and loved it.

Completely OcurrentT: As I was getting ready this morning I happened to remember smonster's sunscreen query is still open, so -

I have pretty sensitive skin too, so I almost never use regular sunscreen on my face. I use moisturizer with sunscreen instead. I don't know if Trader Joe's is geographically viable for you, but if so, I use their "enrich" daily facial lotion for every day. Nice and light, non-greasy, almost fragrance free and only 4 bucks for a good-sized bottle! But - only SPF 15. For days when I know that sun exposure is going to be an issue, I use Eucerin's (wait, had to look it up, they've changed the name) Daily Protection Moisturizing Face Lotion [link] (although I still have the "former look" packaging that specifies "sensitive skin" on the front). Good stuff, SPF 30, a little heavier than TJs, but still not a problem on my SUPER OILY skin.

This is good to know. Because I don't know if it's just that my skin is not yet used to an office environment again, but by mid-day, my face is horribly oily, and my foundation is settling into my pores. Do. Not. Want.

IO (shallow fashion) N, is it horribly vain and self-referential of myself if I review my "Goth at the Office" tag on Tumblr to plan my outfits so I don't repeat things too often? I'm trying to tell myself that it isn't shallow, but I do worry.

Is the question whether it's shallow to not want to repeat outfits, or merely the method? I don't think it's shallow to not want to repeat outfits - I make an effort not to, and my outfits are substantially less likely to stick in others' brains than yours are. I have no opinion on the method - whatever works for you, I think.

So, I guess, short answer = no.

It's not shallow, it's organizing your wardrobe in the 21st Century.

Um, both, I think.

Ha! Okay, I guess there's that.

A guy I work with was bitching at me yesterday that he came in for a meeting on his work from home day that was subsequently cancelled, and now he had to take the shirt he was wearing out of the rotation.
