*sigh* me too on the eye cream. I have lots of samples so I will run through those, I guess.

Someone hold me. Less?
Normally, naked and vulnerable is ideal. I still don't know why I let 12 years of friendship interfere with a tried and true methodology.

I like being snidely condescending. But mostly I do it in my mind. And on this board. Not IRL.

Tonight, I will make it a point to be snidely condescending in Minneapolis. If I make my flight. Wheeeee.

This is another one of those things I never get right.

Like spit and image. And zero something game.
A member of my family insists that the expression is "Six or one half dozen of the other." This clearly makes no sense, right?

2. Though i think this might also be an unfortunate side effect of weight loss. I'll take the wrinkles.

ETA: Unrelated killer teddy bear. I think it's because he was an orphan.

Good ETA. I was just going to ask for a new topic.

ETA to say that a Virginia Woolfian Teddy Bear is not the pick me up I expected.

You're also thinking the lack of parental role models led to his tragic demise? I don't see why he had to take out the fish too.

I keep forgetting Being There for my top 10. I've never was able to sit through Beautiful Girls- I don't mean I didn't like it, just never gave it a chance. I'll rent it.

I love that they plan to issue a warning. I feel sorry for the 3-year-old who is disconsolate over the loss of her Paddington Bear.

I'll release my teddy bears into any goddamned fish hatchery I want to. I am a rebel.

Do. It's easily Tim Hutton's best work, Michael Rappoport is great in it, and it makes you forget Natalie Portman's Star Wars lapse of judgment.

Maybe the eye twitching is making it harder for you to concentrate? What was for lunch?
