It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I told someone who went on the cabbage soup diet that I thought Pol Pot did that to people frequently.

You are made of 100% AWESOME, lady.

erikaj,there's a day for everything! I always only remember CP awareness day because it's two days before the twins' birthday. With all of Grace's issues, we could do an awareness day every month (my fave is feeding tube awareness in February because they have lots of "I love a tubie" gear).

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Just caught up on The Good Wife, thankfully unspoiled, but I suspect it won't be easy to stay that way, FYI.

It may be lowly pine, but it is purty.

I like pine too. Some of the pine in the '30s still came from the heart of larger trees, so the grain is more interesting.

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

So, I didn't notice until this evening that my tub never drained after my shower this morning. And I just did the baking soda and vinegar treatment a few days ago. Lacking any better inspiration, I attacked it with a plunger, which lowered the water line a little, but it is still not draining and I think I have reached the limits of that particular approach.

You know when a hot shower would be nice? When you've been unsuccessfully trying to unclog a drain for 45 minutes.

Always Anti-fascist!

Tep, she was a nice lady, who seemed like she had a lot of things a woman could want. Also, big hips that she couldn't make shrink(I don't know if you can, if you have big hipbones, maybe the one body problem I don't really understand.) Anyway, her obsession kind of made *me* crazy, so I guess I was rude, but, why make trouble for yourself? Mess up your mood, get gas, and all that, when your husband has seen your ass before? Able-bodied bitches be crazy.(And she had a good shape, she just thought it "should be" smaller, blah, blah...fashion industry shame cakes.)

Oh, plumbing, no. Time for a Zip-It snake and fortitude in the face of the disgusting, -t?

I took a zip-it snake to it when I volcanoed it! but maybe I should try again. In a few minutes.

Well, it did drain eventually. Zip it snake couldn't reach anything. Trying more baking powder and vinegar.
