Other than the fact that I hate having a cold. The partner that I work for smokes like a chimney and not just cigarettes (wink), drinks like a fish and rarely, if ever, goes to the gym. I don't drink, don't smoke habitually, go to the gym almost every fucking day. Plus I eat very healthfully. I get a cold at least once a year. He never ever gets sick. Ever. Plus he spends half his life in an airplane.

I guess I got sick more often when I didn't lead such a healthy lifestyle, but really. I hate having a cold. Hate it. hate it. hate it. hate it. And now I am mad at people with apparently incredible immune systems.

See. Nothing to contribute. Sorry, Ollie.
8 colds in 10 months, 4 of them in back-to-back sets of 2.

I both commiserate and win.

What is the utility of wearing a short-sleeved t-shirt over a long-sleeved t-shirt? Or is it purely a fashion statement? I don't get it. It seems like the short-sleeved one should go under the long-sleeved one.
It looks cute. Esp. on an 11 month old.

You get the same layering utility, plus you get to show both shirts. Admittedly, that's a bit like wearing your panties over your pants, but not totally. I have never done either myself.

Including answering my Narnia question. Will you answer it on Monday? Enjoy the show.

I am having a good day. 1. Cute kids. 2. 2-hour conf call lasted only 35 min for me -- I was released after doing the outbrief for benefits. 3. Friday. 4. Nothing shitty has happened yet. 5. Saw video of cute baby walking around, but did not have to interact with any actual baby. 6. When I shake my head, my earrings jingle.

No, on an adult. Usually if not always seen on males.

Right. Like you've ever said no.

Well, depending on the sizes of the two shirts in question, it could be more comforatble because the long-sleeved one is smaller than the short-sleeved one. It could be that a person really wants to show off the hipster message on the short-sleeved one, but it is cold outside. I don't know. There seem to be any number of reasons that people would do it. Maybe you should spend more time thinking about breakfast sandwiches and let this one go?

I am not sure I have brought this up on the board ever, and definitely not since I came to LA. I advised you to avert your eyes.

I'm giving you reasons. You just don't want to hear them.

I don't know the answer to the Narnia question. I saw the movie 10 months ago, and I can't remember the detail in the book.

Aslan sends some of the magical creatures to rescue Edward, and they do so just as the Witch is preparing the knife. If she hadn't taken such pleasure in sharpening it up and tormenting him slowly before ritualistically killing him, the whole thing would have come out differently.

Dumb witch.

Does the t-shirt have a witty phrase on it? Like "Vote for Pedro"?
