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

I think it's the adhesive doing it to me, too. I need to start using the kind where the bandage sticks to itself.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

My mother is in town this weekend. We went to see Much Ado, and then I showed her Dr. Horrible, and now we're watching "Once More With Feeling". Whedon win.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

we caught a tiger by the toe

Oh right, it was the toe.

I made it home two hours after I got off work. I'm glad I didn't do that on one of my 9am-midnight days.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

like a burn but in the shape of a Band-aid, so probably I'm allergic to something in the non-latex bandage (which I bought specifically because I'm allergic to latex).

The non-latex use an adhesive that jacks my skin up worse than latex usually. Good times.

My skin with bandaids is Gingers.

I just met the neighbor's two cocker spaniels. Barky, barky dogs but they seem to watch my house too without having met them so I am viewing them as more useful than annoying. Except! Neighbor and I were talking in the yard (she's friendly and I can't even remember her name) and her screen door didn't latch and both dogs flew out to go after another two dogs being walked across the street. A German Shepard and Weimaraner with pretty impeccable training considering they didn't eat the spaniels attacking them. And the neighbor is a little older so I was the one running after them. Trying to figure out if I could grab them without them turning to attack me since they'll bark to protect my house but they don't know ME at all. They bark at me just like anyone else. No one was hurt though. That was exciting. I wish I'd put on a bra before popping outside to water one tree for a minute. Really flawless training on the two big dogs. Man Weimaraners are pretty too.

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

Mmm, good day for me. Saw many very cool quilts, had a delish salad for lunch, then nice if winding drive through the hills to Napa for chocolate and wine (both yum, I bought a bunch of each) followed by tea, then back to Suisun where I had a coffee-coated steak which was tasty (though I still don't understand it well enough to describe it, really, except it was yum) and which I will have the leftovers of tomorrow. Ahhh.

AHS was not for me. I wanted to like it, but just not my beautiful cake. I can see what people who did like it saw in it (the first season anyway, which is all I watched) it just didn't resonate with me, I guess.

In my epic driving across most of Southern California last weekend, I listened to (and sang along with) all of OMwF. That was really fun. I haven't watched it in years.

Relatedly, good lord, James Marsters' cheekbones.

And, hey, Much Ado is playing in Napa so I might go see it this week. That is an unexpected piece of good fortune.

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.

Zenkitty,now that you know it's the bandage that was creating more trouble, gently cleanse the area and if possible apply Benedryl cream (some forms of anti-itch cream) to the irritated area. If you don't have the cream, then try a paste of water and baking soda and if possible take some Benedryl internally.

Also, see if you can get the new Tetanus/Diphtheria/Pertussis combo for adults, I think they are referring to it as T-DAP or some such.
