So, my Great Bedroom Reorganization/Rearrangement is proceeding more quickly. Let me give you a rundown on what's happening/happened.

1. Purchase shelves/cubes, new shower curtain/liner, and new bedskirt/shams
2. Get rid of old bed linens and get new ones
3. Clean out random crap that's on upper shelves in closet.
4. Cull out-of-season clothes ( Read more... )

Wow, I feel about a zillion times better today. THANK YOU to winstonmon for the suggestion that I sleep with a humidifier by my bed...I did it and I did NOT wake up with that giant-crusty-lips feeling. Also thanks to TLR for introducing me to a fabulous new substance. She suggested that I try this nifty face balm for colds from the Aromatherapy Remedies ( Read more... )

Well, it's happened. The clerks at my local Bath & Body Works know me now. At least one of them does, anyway ( Read more... )

Diet Mountain Dew has become my new drink of choice. I know it's probably bad for me but I need the caffeine. Although I actually got a good night's sleep last night. Go me! Feeling goooood. Am wearing new sandals and new pretty sparkly necklace too. Yay!

Because it's SO DAMNED FUN please keep asking me science questions. So far this ( Read more... )

TLR and I went to Target the other night, where I picked up this supercute purse for summer. I don't buy purses much, I have a little pocket wallet I carry instead, but several of my summer pants don't have pockets or have small pockets, and in summer one often has to carry additional items. Ergo, new purse. And it's VINYL. That means I can ( Read more... )

First of all, THANKS to everyone who posted questions in my Ask a Character a Question meme. It was great fun. IF you'd like to read the answers, just page back a few days in my journal. I did drop a few clues to upcoming events, and related some never-before-heard tales of backstory ( Read more... )

Man, I'm exhausted. I don't know why. Is it because I've been eating like crap the last few days? Probably. Even though it hasn't been THAT bad.

I've finished reading "Acceptance of Fate," what there is of it. I'm still waaaaaaay impressed with Arya's magical theorizing. However, I must say, I think there may be such a thing as too much plot ( Read more... )

It seems many people here are directly affected by the tsunami crisis, beyond just the horror at so much death and suffering ( Read more... )

Actually, I haven't been partaking much of the BBW obsession lately. I'm stocked up on most of my habitual-use products, although it will be time for more cleanser soon. I did pay a visit last week, because Rachel and I have been lusting after the Henri Bendel Home candles that they stock there (they're ridiculously expensive but smell AMAZING) ( Read more... )
