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

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I missed the link, but good luck Pix and ND.
Can I just say that I am so very impressed with those of you who have the fortitude to rationally carry on arguments on the internet. Or at all, really. In person is even worse. I can do the pro/con discussions and explore issues from multiple points of view but I really hate arguing. It leaves me agitated and weary at the same time. Right now one dude has annoyed me enough that I'm glad my cats are female just so there isn't a dick in the house.

Good luck on the house, Pix & ND

My idiot brother is moody and grumpy because he wants to go home and "we won't let him" despite the fact that all roads leading that way are closed! Guess he thinks they will make an exception for him.
NPR had a couple of those types of folks on yesterday. One guy said "I evacuated because they told me that I had to, and now they won't let me back. Next time, I'm not leaving!"

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
House~ma, Kristin and Drew! Fingers are crossed.
Not been a good few weeks. Made worse tonight by GI issues after eating ice cream. Can one develop lactose intolerance in their 40s? This is just adding insult to injury. And I'm getting sick. The universe can go to hell.

Yes. Signed, thank goodness for almond milk products.

Can one develop lactose intolerance in their 40s?
Yes, this happened to me, too. And it took me a couple of months to figure out what was going on because I wasn't paying attention.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Sorry about the lactose reaction, Maria. And the rest of the no good. Wishing better for you.
House~ma, PixDesigns--that's a really nice house!
Sophia, Zen's rec is a good one, but what I use is this. It's one of the few Burt's Bees products I can use, as it doesnt' contain lanolin. Lanolin is really good for human skin, but I'm allergic, dammit. This stuff is great. It feels a bit grainy on your fingers, but it smooths out with the heat of your skin. It smells pleasant, and I've used it for a couple of years with no bad reactions. I even use a very minimal sheer amount on my face.

Definitely checking out some of these products. Rather than using a regular antiperspirant/deodorant, I've taken to using Gold Bond powder on my pits and underboob area, which doesn't feel at all greasy and works just as well, at least for purposes of soaking up sweat so that I don't get the dread bra band distress.
