I have a short attention span, so it's time for a bulleted list


  • Out of Advil and too lazy to go out and get more. This means I'm reduced to Zicam Sinus. Which WORKS, but which is like inhaling a Halls or scrubbing out your nose with Dr. Bronner.
  • Babysitterperson is wonderful.
  • House looks like bomb exploded in it and littered dishes and toys everywhere as part of the fallout. To say nothing of laundry. I'm sick enough that I can't bring myself to care, and have resolved to fix this ... later. Next week.
  • Verizon has hopefully not lost Chris's invoice AGAIN.
  • They may have to move his India trip AGAIN to later in January.
  • I read several books yesterday: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, The Reptile Room (Lemony Snicket #2), Dancing Barefoot and the end of Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom. They were all quite good, and fortunately their plots did not decide to combine in my dreams.
  • I also failed to wake up to a Bush press conference.
  • I like buying Seventh Generation natural tissues, but they're not exactly soft.
  • Today I plan on finishing Neverwhere and The Wide Window (Lemony Snicket #3).
  • And when I saw this, I thought 'holy crap, that's Tieunis and Sander.'

... you're right, it *is* Tieunis and Sander... but how on EARTH did they (a) wind up in a Swedish jail... and which one is the one that's now on the lam?

I'm not sure about the first one, but Sander would definitely be the one on the lam. :-)

Zicam Sinus = TEH SHIZXNIT. Holy Jeebus I used that and could BREATHE!

...and is Dr. Bronner a person, or a medication? I'm trying to imagine scrubbing one's nose out with a whole doctor... and I can't stop giggling. Poor MD.

It's actually a soap. (http://www.drbronner.com/main.html) :-D It's like the Hippie Ubersoap - it smells like peppermint and you can wash your hair/your dishes/your(car|dog|self) with it, it's biodegradable. Chris and I were hypothesizing that it could possibly be used as a personal lubricant, but I don't know if I'd recommend that for the unexpecting masses.

"Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom"?

You're the first person I know that's even HEARD of that book (other than me) - I've read it online, I need to find myself a copy!
