This bottle was NOT marked poison, so Alice ventured to taste it...
Attending Wicked Faire has given me a renewed taste in tea... and I have such a lovely shiny teapot to make it in now. Relaxing in the warm, away from the wet and heavy snows of midwinter, I decided that mint tea was just the thing for today ( Read more... ) -

There may be a lot going on in your life now. You would prefer a simpler day with less activity, but you don't really have a choice today. Others are relying on you and you don't want to let them down. If you try to make anyone feel guilty about your sacrifices, it will only make your day worse. Instead of focusing your attention on what you wish ( Read more... ) -

Dear Zales:
Yes, I adore this shiny. I found it by accident last month. I thought it was gorgeous. I still do.
But now it's showing up in ads everywhere I go on the web, and it's driving me BONKERS - even moreso when I see the price has dropped on it, go to see how much, and discover it is Out Of Stock!!! That's just unkind of you.
Stop it.
Kthx<3,

We (might) be getting a puppy!
Someone posted on Craigslist today, 7 puppies for salem so I called the guy right away. He just called back and gave me the lowdown; the mother is a black lab "mix" (might be purebred, but they don't have papers so they don't know), and the father is a chesapeake bay retriever, purebred, that belongs to the neighbors. SOMEbody hopped the fence, heh ( Read more... ) -
