Eat a Vegan hipster. They're 93% soy.

Yeah, but the self-righteousness really gets stuck in your throat.

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

Make up types. Lip liner recs?

Rimmel. Cheap drugstore stuff. Lasts until I eat something.

This is exactly what I was going to say!

Got the chimney guy email. We don;t close until March 19, so we're just collecting a massive to-do list until it's all miiine.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Do I need a chimney guy to get my flue open? I know the chimney itself is good, so it's just the mechanism in my actual fireplace.

No problem; I just wanted to be sure you got it.

You can generally open your own flue. If you stick your head in the fireplace and use a flashlight, you should see a lever you can use. When it's open you can feel a draft (hot air from the house going out and up). (You shouldn't use the fireplace if you aren't sure the chimney has been swept reasonably recently. Sweeping is pretty cheap (we were quoted $119 until they found out it was a slate roof) and prevents fires!)

No, batpeen is what made me scurry away.

Were you really going to say "93% soy"?

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

He had been solving his pain issues with Tylenol with Rum & Diet Coke chasers. Now he is one very sick pup.

Similar thing happened to one of my classmates in high school. Tylenol and alcohol do not mix.
