I have one week of summer vacation left. Blah. I know it’s more than most people get but I just really wish it was longer. That is all.

This afternoon I was cleaning up the kitchen; basically I was scrubbing down the counters and the stovetop, and doing a couple of dishes. As I washed the dishes, I noticed that there was… something… dripping out of the cupboard to my left. Whatever it was, was foamy, and smelled like some kind of propellant. [...]

1) How come they changed the Olympics? It used to be that the summer and winter Olympics were in the same year. Like I remember when the ’88 Summer Olympics were in Seoul, and the ’88 WINTER Olympics were in Calgary. They were both in 1988. Why did that change? 2) What is the difference [...]

We have so much stuff. I don’t know where it all came from… but we have it. Like, clothes. Books. That kind of thing. SO MUCH STUFF. And half of it we don’t use. Which means it’s just clutter. If I weren’t so lazy, I would get a truck rental (actually, don’t need to now [...]

With the reinstatement of weekly glycolic acid peels into my facial routine, my acne is kind of clearing up a little bit. Also I found tweezers so the chin hairs are a bit sparser, as well.

Isle = an island Aisle = what’s in the grocery store So if you’re headed to the “tampon isle”… yeah that brings up whole new mental images now, doesn’t it?

I think they might be a distant cousin of the chainsaw… or they could be this stuff. Anyway my nephews are on their third (and, I’ve decreed, final) bowl of the stuff since lunchtime and I’m worried that they are going to start pooping all over the place or something. It’s weird because they are [...]

A zombie. I am one. So last night I went to bed at around 11… but Rob and I ended up talking until probably 12:30 or 1. And then I had to get up at 6:30. I’m wondering if these kids still take naps. Also I’m wondering if there’s a way for me to prevent [...]

We got a text message from Rob’s parents to tell us Happy Anniversary, this morning. My mom and dad remembered after I reminded Mom (“I didn’t even know today’s date!”). And you know what? I’m pretty much fine with that. Hey, at least they showed up for the wedding itself, eh? So… here’s what happened [...]
