Nah, I reserve my horn for imminent danger warnings.
Huh. Fat snowflakes and rain. And it is rather dark out.
This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Random question for any French-speakers in the house: I have two different face cleansers that both say in English they are oil free. In the French, one says "sans huile" and the other says "non gras." Are those both correct? Just curious. (Does everyone get bilingual French/English toiletries, or is it because I'm closer to Canada?)

I had always assumed the second language was going to be spanish until I moved here. Now, it is french. Blame Canada.

The feminine appliances in the work bathroom are actually tri-lingual, which I enjoy.

Sans huile means without oil. Non gras means no fat. I would be more likely to expect the former on an oil-free face cleaner, I think.

Non gras means no fat.
Googling suggests it's used as "not greasy," which would do it.

In other news about how I'm not doing my job, an employee at my old local Trader Joe's stabbed a customer! WTF. [link]

I'm doing laundry! From the comfort of my own home! And the dryer cycle takes less time than the washer cycle. I knew my old dryer was limping along (I expected it to go out before the washer) but it took forever to dry things. I feel like I have magic in my laundry room!
ION I woke up stuffed up and it isn't going away. Blech. I do not have time to be sick.

I would have expected stabbing from a Market Basket employee long before one at Trader Joe's.
