I thought I'd knock off early and get to Whole Foods to wait for my Instacart shift, but i forgot the shift doesn't start until 1, and there's not really enough time to go home.
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Pretty much, at least it was at Whole Foods. I suspect I'll be LDB'd today what with the supermarket Muzak.

Our wings are not tired.
I was LBD'd twice yesterday! Both nice. Both on Sirius radio. Once on a jazz station and once R&B. I didn't regret it.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I heard a steel drum version of LDB Sunday. We were at the mall (the moment we decided to go to the mall is when I knew we'd lose the LDB game), in a Spencer's Gifts looking for a gag gift for an exchange at a party this weekend. So I'm looking around, idly wondering if we need a lava lamp, and in the back of my mind, I'm thinking "I've never heard steel drum Christmas music before -- cool!" But I wasn't really actively listening to the tune.
And then Tim stuck his head around a shelf and said "Isn't this song...?" at which point the listening part of my brain kicked in, and I said, "Aw, DAMN IT!" Which I'm pretty sure made all the other shoppers back away.
A steel drum version is a pretty entertaining way to lose the game, though.

I'm making pretty good progress CEing this MS, but will take a break in a while, work out, and dye my hair.
I don't know who recommended cocoanut oil for skin care but I finally picked up a jar and tried it, and IT IS THE FUCKING BOMB for dry winter skin. And I love the scent.

I just coconut oiled my hair, Strix.
But Burrell, it's so much fun to consume wine with you. I shall be bereft if we can't anymore.
Well yeah! Which means not truly giving it up for good, but I probably shouldn't be drinking it every night, as I do.

I'd try coconut oil for the winter-in-desert dry skin, but I dislike the smell of coconuts.

I've been meaning to try coconut oil because my face is drier than the Sahara right now, but EVERYTHING makes me break out so I'm always super cautious. I do love the smell of coconuts though.
