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.

HA, Tep!

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.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

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.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

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.

It's probably not appropriate to say "Oh my goodness you are so cute" to my 20-something male coworker, is it? But he's wearing this hilarious diagonally striped shirt that is probably what all the cool kids these days are wearing, and he's just adorable/ridiculous.

I am so old.

I have not actually noticed a coconut-y smell on coconut oil.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

There are different kinds of coconut oil. Refined and unrefined, or something like that. The un-whatever one tastes and smells somewhat coconutty, but the other one doesn't.

It is certainly way less coconutty than, say, cocoa butter. I wish it would sink into my skin better.
