I bought a used book online, it was really cheap and a book Everyone was talking about last year, but it reeks of patchouli. Can I ever get it out?
I just think you're freakin' out 'cause you have to fight someone prettier than you.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
All right, aurelia! About time, but congratulations all the same!
erika, I have a sneaking suspicion that patchouli is eternal.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay, aurelia! Finally!
erika, I have seen guides to getting mildew scent out of water-damaged books, maybe those techniques would apply? I don't remember what they were, unfortunately, as it wasn't something I actually needed to know.

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

Did anyone else go to a "stinking hippies" place? just me? Not that I'm anti-patchouli. I did go to Berkeley after all. But perhaps for that very reason, I do relish the opportunity to say Stinking Hippies!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Thanks!
erika, my first thought is sprinkling it with baking soda and/or sticking it in the freezer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good news, aurelia!

Brava, aurelia! It's about time!
I love my Dad: he paid for all my new glasses (I had new lenses put in my backup frames and my sunglasses), so I took him to lunch. And then I went to the home show, which was a waste of time: a couple dozen vendors with no real displays except for the hot tub guys, and at least half a dozen home solar vendors. Which I don't need. Nobody had kitchen displays, sigh.
And now I'm going to take a nap. Yay for lazy(ish) Saturday afternoons.

Hurray, aurelia! And serious congrats, I'm glad they came to their senses.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Congratulation, Aurelia!
