To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

hip deep in pie

I must have good instincts for the change in weather. The snow chnaged to ice pellets about 3 minutes after I went outside to shovel.

In other news, ice pellets on the face hurt.

Does anyone here have a Wii? Do you use the fitness bits? I'm doing a review and looking for others willing to talk about the BMI algorithm the Wii uses. I like a lot about this platform. Except for one thing. GUESS WHICH THING.

I do, Sox. Sort of, anyway.

Want to send me some thoughts and tell me whether you'd like to be anonymous? profile addy is good.

Port of Call did have cream cheese! For about twice as much as the grocery store, but in absolute dollars it's not too bad of a convenience charge. Good thing that's all I needed, though.

ETA: I don't know that I have any pertinent thoughts? I use it for tracking my weight, ignore the BMI numbers, and am annoyed that the little graph that shows before I choose my Mii doesn't actually show anything (I do have further thoughts about the way the graphs in general are scaled if that would be of interest)

My new roommate has begun moving in! Somehow I am not yet up and packing for my trip today, nor am I cleaning my room. Both of which are rather desperately needing to happen.

I am relieved (insert mild ladybits spoilerfont) that the cramps I had in the middle of the night were actually my period coming a week early, and not just weird "ow why is my body cramping".

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Aw, Peter O'Toole died.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

On a side note, as a result of being so sick, I hadn't smoked for several days, and though I bought a pack Friday, now that I can taste things again, I am kinda naused out by more than 2 puffs.

And since the kiddo gets here in three days, I am actually kind of excited to not be all-smoking-all-the-time girl.

I'm not going to say I am quitting (because Murphy's Law is A Thing, especially during the holidays) but I will say I am cutting WAY back.

On step at a time Strix.

Today has been one of those days. I did sleep in but once I was up I decided to finish my wrapping, write out Christmas cards, and make a necklace, so I grab all the stuff and bring it out to the living room. Oh, wait, I only have one roll of tape, so I should go to Office Max. While I'm there, I also need packing tape and a cushioned mailer, oh and stamps. And Bath and Body Works is next door and my body wash is on sale. I get home, unload my stuff and go to the kitchen to get a cup of tea. CJ unloaded the dishwasher, so I should load it while I wait for the kettle. Might as well do the pots and pans even though the water is hot. And it is lunch time, so I should put something together. I get my tea and lunch and set down to get to work. My address list is on Google drive, so I decide to peek around the internet. So here I am, nothing new wrapped, no cards written, jewelry is still in pieces.

True, but you got a whole lot of other shit done LIKE A BOSS.
