Steph, I have a Lipstick Queen lipstick and 2 of their glosses. Not impressed at all. Has the consistency of the Wet 'n' Wild formulation from the '80s. Gross.
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I am, le n. I started on the 3rd, but that first week was spent in NH for orientation. Getting used to working from home. I love the no commute aspect, but I need to make a concerted effort to get out of the house.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If you do, Typo, eat 1/2 one at first and wait an hour. I have had a few that knocked me on my ASS.
When we had our pot party, everyone had that "boring!" reaction to their first brownie other than me, because I found I didn't enjoy eating lawn clippings enough to find out what came next. eta: I only made it 1/2way through.
I ended up leaving the party early, which turned out to be the good call--during the loss of consciousness, but before the puking. I did take one party-goer with me, and so she had a toilet all of her own to puke in while I had a pleasant warm buzz in the comfort of my own home.
Next pot party was pot pasta. Much better flavour combination, and I can't remember *shit* past mincing the garlic.

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

Oh hai. The house, I am in it.

Well, I was kidding about the blue lipstick, but that is sad that a $20+ lipstick has the consistency of a $2 lipstick. Boo.

The status is NOT quo.
I finally got up the courage to contact a mortgage rep from US Bank, which gets good reviews from our friends and online. Please cross your fingers for us that this refi might still be a possibility...this time away from Evil!Bank.

Good luck Pix, ND.

I just now got an invite to the family breakfast tomorrow. Do I want to drive over an hour each way to see family after a last minute invite?
