Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You're supposed to so that you don't absorb the drug yourself. It's only really important to cover the finger that the ointment is on, so you could even use plastic wrap on just that finger. (Tim cuts the fingers off the gloves so he can use them one at a time.)

Ooh, good tip! I inherited a whole box of latex gloves from my grandmother, so I have plenty, but it seems like a waste to use a whole glove. I will use one finger!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

aurelia, I always take the attitude of "I'm the mama, it's my job to do this nasty thing to you" when I have to do unpleasant things to my cats. They will forgive you for the unpleasantness and they will forgive you for travelling. It sure doesn't feel good, though.

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

My blond haired, blue eyed boy played the Lion in his school production of The Wiz, so not sure I have a strong leg to stand on here, but I find an all white version of The Wiz weird, and also missing the point.

You know that problem people sometimes have where their email address gets mixed up with someone else? I got that with some Saudi woman also named Norah. So today I got an email from some travel agency with the Subject line: Payment request. Anyone know how to translate from Farsi to English?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Anyone know how to translate from Farsi to English?

Do they speak Farsi in Saudi? Isn't it Arabic? Farsi would be for Persia/Iran, no?

You can copy and paste the email to translate.google.com and it should detect the language for you, Burrell.

SO MUCH. As much as I love Hillary and Bill (and I do), I'm going to miss the hell out of the Obamas.

And my goodness, I sometimes forget just how good of a speaker Pres. Obama is when he's allowed to cut loose.
