even if no one gets me, if i'm the only one laughing at my jokes, i won't hide myself away from life. it's uncertain and it's dirty and it's fucking exciting, and i want to be a part of all of it.
it's too good to waste in hiding.

heart full
Today on my way home from class, I stopped off at the petrol station for some petrol. I paid on my card which wasn’t a lot, and then as I was getting into my car, I saw an old man walking past the building. He had a red and green stripy jumper which was frayed at the ends. He was also wearing some jeans that were dirty and had holes all over.
I sat there and became intrigued by him because I didn’t know what he was doing, so as I sat there and watched him, he continued doing what he set out to do.
He walked past the trash cans and first picked out a cup with some drink still in it (one of the cups that you get from burger king that has coke in it). He then walked over to the next trash can and pulled out the end of a half eaten sandwich. In my shock horror, he ate it and then went to sit on the wall to drink the drink he had found.
I felt sad, I wanted to give him my last $4 that I had but I was told when I was younger that you should never give people money, you should give them something they need or can use because that way, if they had an addiction, they would not be able to use the money for their addiction. So I went into the shop and bought a chicken sandwich from their deli counter and then walked out of the building.
The guy was still sat at the wall drinking his drink so I walked up to him and asked him if he would like this sandwich. He thanked me and said that he was hungry.
I should of felt good after that, doing something for someone else but all I could think of is where his next meal will come from or where in fact he will sleep tonight.

Jennicula,
Thank you for sharing your story. Although it only appeared briefly, I was lucky enough to have caught it.
Once upon a time, for me, that was the best part of this place...having my words related back to me from another's perspective.
And it never mattered to me who said it, just that it meant something to the writer.

Don't let anyone tell you how to live your life. Hold your head up high and be proud of who you are. If you've had a shitty day and you feel like people just don't want you to be happy, and when you find yourself struggling to make it through the day, just keep on believing and keep the faith. Also, from personal experience, don't push people away. When they say they want to help and that they are there for you, let them in. Believe me, I know how fucking scary that thought is, but don't shut others out.

Sometimes, when you look back on stuff in your life, you know, the crap that makes you shake your head and say, "Holy shit, what the Hell was I thinking?" it's part of what makes you - you.
I'm not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. I have made small mistakes and really big, fucking scary mistakes. Would I change those mistakes and blunders?
No. Wanna know why?
Because they make me - me. They help make up the person that I am, what I've learned the hard way. Hopefully I've learned from my mistakes and have become a better person for it. And, hopefully I don't repeat those same mistakes. Although, sometimes I repeat variations of certain ones, but I'm working on that. :)

aloft
Blazing against the sun
like locusts,
samaras swarm the sky
and skitter to an earthly end,
dry
like clever words.
I want to make them fly up,
flip heaven upside down
and dance across the top of hell
and sing your thoughts
to the sound of thunder
that you love so well,
rip open the littered sky
and bathe in the light
or draw across the firmament
the blanket of the night.
In only a day they have
covered the ground,
their brief flight
yielding nothing permanent
on infertile land,
a fleeting moment of swarming glory
that calls to mind our own
short story:
Diamonds and petals,
the loom and the light,
the inkdark moon, foxfire marsh,
an open, waiting hand.
Clever winged seeds
of childhood reminiscent--
and like the idiot grown-up heart,
as stubbornly indehiscent.

Electric Blue
…today I saw a ulysses butterfly it was in our yard and settled to feed on our hibiscus. They really are fantastically beautiful things, the electric blue is amazing, however as they sit with their wings closed they are rather nondescript and dull. Sometimes people are like that, from the outside they seem unappealing but within there hides an amazing beauty for those lucky enough to see it. I hope you appreciate beauty in all things, and look for it perhaps where others miss it.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.
I read your post again and suddenly without warning memories of construction paper filled my head. I remembered all the lop-sided flowers my girls made when they were young. Bright blue, yellow and pink flowers that were cut out with blunt end scissors would fill the windows to decorate for Easter. An occasional bunny was attempted but those usually ended up looking like creatures from a horror movie. Flowers were so much easier. I can close my eyes and hear the paper being cut into petals. I can smell the Elmer’s glue squirted on in huge blobs to attach each misshapen petal to form the flowers. We had a huge arts and crafts box full of wonderful items just waiting for their imaginations to turn into something wonderful. In my mind I see my daughters, as they once were, small, blond little girls sitting on the floor surrounded by scraps of paper and other art supplies. They would create their masterpieces then proudly show each other. Oh and Lord the messes that would ensue if the glitter made an appearance. Now, the box is forgotten. I’m not really sure where it even is anymore. The few flowers so lovingly created that survived are faded and dusty and high on a shelf they sit. Time marches on, so many things get left behind.
Today was the first Easter I spent alone. I don’t think it really upset me until I remembered the construction paper flowers. Of course I understand that my daughters are growing up and have lives of their own. But understanding doesn’t make it any easier to accept. I miss my little girls in their frilly Easter dresses. I miss the laughter that filled the house when they found what the Easter Bunny left for them. And I miss making the damn flowers.

Some had never tried before
and the result was amazing.

We did our best to keep them flowing
Late into this night.
If nothing else was accomplished
I hope we made someone see

Okay, in the words of FASC, I gotta go watch Heroes. Not with Mr. Bloke, I don't have a cool nickname for my hubby. Might be back later. If not, goodnight, all!
Nope, not yet carrie. But I will in a few minutes.
Have a good night, Carrie :)
Goodnight Carrie!
RW, yeah. Especially working in a dusty store like I do, it aggravates any potential illness.
However.
*looks around conspiratorially*
I may have a hook on another job. One in the jewelery industry.
*dances*

Goodnight carrie
GREAT, A!!
I shall keep my fingers crossed for you :)
I ♥ Depeche Mode
*grins*
Thank you RW!
Ooh. Hello BC!
-A
I love Depeche Mode too!
Me too anon!
*meekly*
I've never heard them before.

7:33 posted their lyrics. :)
Hello again everyone
WHAT?!?
O_O
Hi, Elena! :)
How are you this evening?
Ah! That was a Depeche Mode song!
I didn't know that.
Pretty good RW. How are you?
I've just been decorating for Halloween.
Halloween At Home
Lets have a black celebration
Black celebration
Tonight
To celebrate the fact
That weve seen the back
Of another black day
I look to you
How you carry on
When all hope is gone
Cant you see
Your optimistic eyes
Seem like paradise
To someone like
Me
I want to take you
In my arms
Forgetting all I couldnt do today
Black celebration
Black celebration
Tonight
To celebrate the fact
That weve seen the back
Of another black day
I look to you
And your strong belief
Me, I want relief
Tonight
Consolation
I want so much
Want to feel your touch
Tonight
Take me in your arms
Forgetting all you couldnt do today
Black celebration
Ill drink to that
Black celebration
Tonight
♥smiles back♥

Please don't hit me RW.

Lovely job, Elena! ^_^
I'm well, thanks, though getting tired. It's nearing my bedtime.
Shan't, A. But get thee over to iTunes ASAP!
O_O
Elena, I want your living room.

Hi elena. Amy, you never have?
Thank RW and Amy
Actually that is part of the family room.
Okay, I lied. I have heard them before.
And that song isn't bad at all!
-A
I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who'll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
She'll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She'll hear me out
And won't easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she'll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me
I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone who'll help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I don't want to be tied
To anyone's strings
I'm carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when I'm asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
I'll get away with it
Thank you Depeche Mode anon. :)
I think on Election Day I'm going to show my support by climbing on top of Peter Mann's Bridge.

so do i 9:37.
who doesn't?

Amy, that doesn't sound right. Look at RW's expression ^_^
*grins at BC*
It's a Canadian joke.
Awhile ago, there was a show on here in Canada called "Talking to Americans". There is a national newsanchor here named Peter Mansbridge and the joke on this show was that in Canada, when we wanted to protest something, we'd climb on top of Peter Mann's Bridge.
So they got video of Americans shouting "Congratulations on getting on top of Peter Mann's Bridge!"

Talking To Americans! I loved that show!

Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can't you understand
Oh my little girl
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only harm
Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
All I ever wanted
Enjoy the silence
You're welcome
My fave Depeche Mode songs are A Question Of Lust and Never Let Me Down Again.

Hey all you lovely ladies! How's the whole lot of you? Elena, get ready to answer your phone. ;)
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never let's me down again
He knows where he's taking me
Taking me where I want to be
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never let's me down again
Promises me I'm as safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing to trousers
I hope he never let's me down again
Never let me down
See the stars, they're shining bright
Everything's alright tonight
Hahaha
Thank you, 10:06pm :)
I love enjoy the silence. Hi J, how are you?
*hugs*
I'm on my way home. I got a bit sick again(Stomach aches) so tomorrow I have to purge :/
Hullo, J! :D
How are you and L tonight?
Hey BC, RW! *hugs* Doing alright? L's feeling better today, thanks for asking.
I'm good, thank you, J :)
I was alright earlier J, but now I'm starting to feel a bit ill with the nausea. Blah. I can't wait to go to sleep.
I'm glad you guys are alright.
Where did everyone go
Hi, MJ! :D
Oh, sorry you're feeling icky BC. Hope you improve soon. Several people have that sane bug.

Hmm. Obviously I meant "SAME", but I really like my original version.
"The sane bug."
Honestly, I don't know ANYone who has THIS.
J I know I haven't had the sane bug for a while.
Hey mj. Thanks J. I think I'm gonna make some soup when I get home.

Me either, Martha. In fact, whenever I feel it creeping up on me, I come here and it magically disappears.
BTW, L says "thank you" to everyone who's been sending her get-well wishes, including the Anon from last night. She's planning on coming back soon; in fact, she's started her blog again. She also says "Thank you, Mayo, for Elena" and "Thank you, SS, for Ergo". Both of you did nice things yesterday. :)
I just want to say hi to myself and wish me a good night.
Hi everyone else.
So, yeah, Mayo. If this was a test to see if people will actually tell you the truth, well... I guess most of them failed.
Your painting sucks, by the way. I guess anons are good for something.
BIG D! How're you doing today?
Amy, I'm sending you an email in a couple of minutes.

Story of a man,
Who decided not to breathe.
Turned red, purple, then blue.
Colorful indeed.
No matter how his friends begged,
Well, he would not concede,
And now hes dead.
You see, cause everybody knows,
You got to breathe.
But, oh god,
Under the weight of life,
Things seem brighter on the other side...
Lighter on the other side...
Another one: see this monkey sitting on a tree,
One day, decided to climb down,
And run off to the city.
Look at him now, tired and drunk
And living on the street.
As good as dead.
You see, a monkey should know,
Stay up in your fuckin tree.
But, oh god,
Under the weight of life,
Things seem brighter on the other side.
Oh, god,
But under the weight of life,
Things seem much brighter on the other side.
No way, no way, no way.... out... of here...
Another one: a big eyed fish,
Yeah, swimming in the sea,
Oh, how he dreamed.
He wants to be a bird,
Swooping, diving through the breeze.
One day, he caught a big blue wave,
Up onto the beach,
And now hes dead.
You see, a fishs dream,
Should stay in the sea.
But, oh god,
Under the weight of life,
Things seem brighter on the other side.
No way... no way...no way...out... of here...
No way out of life.
Hi, Dickweed :)
Wow, it feels weird to say that.
Hi dickweed ^_^
Last Anon, your song sounds really fatalistic. Are you ok? Do you need someone to talk to?
*surfaces*
Read and replied J.
-A is going bathing. Be back later.
I'm ok J, you?
I'm one of the ones that told the truth. I'm no art critic so I'm not going to act like one. I saw a bird and hey, it was a bird. Couldn't be that bad, now could it?
Howdy D-Weed, J and Martha.
its not right to say anothers art sucks. you can politely say you dont like it and leave it at that.
beauty is in the eye of the beholder. i like the colors. honestly abstract is not my thing
cant draw worth a lick. wish i could. i appreciate alot of forms of art. if i dont like it, i move on to the next
Hi people. I'm being nosy and trying to backtrack to see how you all are tonight.
I thought I smelled something! ;)
Missing pants and exploding cocks. What is this world coming to?

Hello :)
I'm ok myself, D. Going to the dr in the AM, so I'll be off early tonight.
And no, you don't suck.
Hey Redrum, long time no see. How're you?
Hey Elena! How did it go with the peppers?
*fans MJ*
dw just turned to black
It's almost 3d

Peppers are all done J. Now my hands smell like a jalapeno and oh crap I have to remember not to rub my eyes.
Missing pants and exploding cocks. What is this world coming to?
o_0 redrum you are crazy but funny. thank you for the visual image stuck in my head for the night!
Martha: GO TO BED. You need to sleep. Turn off the computer and get your rest. I love you, but you need to be sleeping! NOW!
First 11.04, I'm glad you're alright. If you're the person I think you are, I've missed you too. Where've you been? Both L and I are doing pretty well these days. Please come back and see us, ok?
Hi elena and redrum.
Hi. Long day, but I'm feeling good.
How did I turn black? I was answering an email and missed that trick.
Elena, if you rub your eyes, they might catch on fire. ;)
And we don't want THAT now, do we?
hello everyone.
today was the perfect day for taking pictures of trees, so i went out and did. i took about 50 or so, but am only sharing two.
the woods behind the house
at the end of the field

Hey Redrum
TJ those are beautiful pictures
I enjoy trying to pronounce "stfu" phonetically.
(And hey, you, go to bed!)
J its not as bad now I don't look at the ceiling
thank you elena! your pic earlier made me go all nostalgic. i miss my inner bob. :)
Hi, TJ :D
Lovely pics! I'm envious! I miss the woods.
Time for me to turn in. It's way past my bedtime!
Have a lovely evening, all :)
Toujours, I'm jealous of your view.
hi resurrected wreck! i wasn't able to go into their woods before this because of snakes and ticks. *eep*
Nice, TJ.
And good night to you, RW.
Hey TJ! Those ARE pretty. We have a similar view out our sliding glass doors in the apt.
Hi TJ
good night resurrected wreck, sweet dreams.
dw, technically, the view belongs to my folks. i've just been borrowing it for a season. :)
thanks, redrum. good to see you, you know.
hi there j.! yeah, i always had to have an apartment with trees outside, too.
hi, bc. *hugs* :)
Then your parents are doubly blessed.
Goodnight RW, sleep well.
Hello Mayo, SS, Sweetcheeks, Elena, TJ, J, Amy, Redrum, Martha (who I hope is in bed now), DW, Carrie, RW, various anons...etc...
How are you all tonight? Did I come at a bad time? Are we changing colors now? Can I be cerulean tonight? I love cerulean.
I like your pictures, TJ! Is that a golden maple I see?
J: Please tell L to get well and come back soon! I miss her!
Where's Ergo tonight?
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

thank you, dw. :)
hi wendy! it might be a golden maple...
i didn't ask it!
Hi Anon616
Goodnight RW, sweet dreams
*gasps*
Well, next you run into it; you must ask TJ! Just tell him you have 'this friend' who would like to know.
;)
Hey Wendy! Got your email back! Did you love the party girls or what? L says HI and don't ever eat Gerber Chicken Noodle babyfood dinner, it tastes like styrofoam. But the cereal with bananas in it stayed down! YAY!
ha! i will wendy, you can be sure! this time, i was too busy making nice to the big ol' oak i was standing next to. i'm not a tree-hugger, i'm a tree-kisser!
*smooch*
*hugs TJ back*
Hi sugarplum! How are you? *smothers with sloppy kisses and hugs* good to see you :)
*edit*
That should have read "next time".
:P
Have a good night RW and sweet dreams to you!!!
Sweetcheeks!!!! How are you? Are you feeling better? Did you do anything exciting today?
How are you DW? It would appear you are being kept busy with e-mails.
Night everyone.
Oh Ergo is at work but she said she would be here later.
Goodnight Elena. Sleep well.
Goodnight Elena! Happy Halloweeny dreams to you. Talk to you tomorrow.

O_O
Tell L the advice is very much appreciated. I shall add Gerber Chicken Noodle babyfood dinner to my "not to be eaten ~ ever" list! I think I'll add that banana cereal to the same list!
The girls were baaatiful!!!!! They looked like they were ready for a night out on the town. Was Party Sheep picking them up? Wait, is Twinkle old enough to be dating? Hmmm....
Sweetcheeks and DW: I'm doing okay, thanks for asking!
I'm slow with emails but I get there. I'm sure some friendly anon will point out anything that I miss. ;)
good night elena, sweet dreams. :)
hello 6, carrie , dw and and anons
Sweet dreams, Elena! I love your halloween decor! You can come decorate my house if you have time. ;)
TJ: You're welcome to kiss my oak tree, anytime. I'm sure my neighbors would allow to kiss theirs as well! Trees need love too.
J
Gerber Vanilla Custard, Applesauce and some pineapple thing I can't remember the name of are actually very good. The plain flavors of vegetables are also easy to handle. The meal-in-a-jar things never agreed with me. No, I'm not explaining in public. ;) She might be better off making her own for some of them. Ok, I'm shushing now.
Martha: I thought you went to bed. How are you feeling? I see those pills are still causing the "goofies", huh? Are they helping you sleep?
Hi Martha :)
wendy, you should see when trees blush. *hee*
dw...? now i want to know even more! was this an unusual job, or did your cats need a taster, or...
The meal-in-a-jar things never agreed with me. No, I'm not explaining in public. ;)
Well, you HAVE to tell me on email then, cause that line is too good to pass up! :D
L DOES recommend the spaghetti dinner, and the bananas, and the Dutch apple dessert. She eats baby food when she's getting over any kind of stomach thingy. I offered to puree some things for her, but she, uh, politely declined.
Nothing so amusing, Toujours. It was due to a medical condition. I feel for anyone on a special diet.
Goodnight elena. Hi 11:40. Sugarplum, I was okay earlier, but I went to the mall earlier, and got a bit sick again, so I'm laying down. And I'm tired.
I guess I'm not fully recovered yet. I'm thinking I have some kind of bug, so I am staying put until I get better.
All this meal in a jar is making me not want to eat ~ ever again. Where's Amy? We can talk potatoes!
BC: What did you eat today? Tell me it was something yummy!
oh, i'm sorry, dw.
i was hoping maybe to hear about the 5 years you were marooned on a deserted island with nothing but a crate of baby food.
my bad.
Hello BC :)
Sorry to read you are unwell.
oh geez! my most humble and sincere apologies! *gah* "my bad" is a pet peeve of mine, i can't believe it actually was typed out by my fingers.
ick ick ick
I'm sorry, sweetcheeks. I was hoping you would be over that bug by now. :(
Did I read something about a "sane bug"? I hope it's not contagious. Sounds horrible!
TJ: Exactly what "shade" does a tree turn when it blushes? I must know!
*comes back from the bath*
So, what did I miss?

Mayo
So how was your day? Mine was pretty damn good. Today I woke up just feeling good, feeling hopeful. I have no idea why, I mean no big changes have taken place in my life, but still I have this feeling. It’s a good feeling and I’m gonna do everything I can to hold on to it.
Today when I got home I decided to decorate the house for Halloween. I haven’t really done that for several years. Yeah, I’d plop down a pumpkin here or hang up a vampire cut-out there and call it good. But today I decided to decorate like I used to do. Yep, plastic pumpkins hanging in the oak tree out front, gooey green dripping lights strung up and bats hanging from the ceiling. I don’t care if the girls are too old to appreciate my efforts. I did this for me. I did this because I wanted it. A chill is in the air, the leaves are changing and piles of pumpkins are calling to me. Tomorrow I’m going to a pumpkin patch and bring home some orange friends. I’ll sit them on the porch (hope Jake doesn’t take a liking to them, that dog ties to carry the strangest things off) and enjoy their bright color and funky shapes. I always pick pumpkins that have character. Then a few days before Halloween I’ll carve them making sure to look at each with a careful eye before I begin to carve. This is important because if you really look each will have a face just waiting to be discovered. On Halloween night they will light up my moms porch and greet the trick or treaters. Unfortunately we are too far out in the county for little goblins to visit our house. But that’s okay. Mom’s house is in town. Her house is famous for giving each costumed visitor a full size candy bar. No fun size or miniature treats, no sir. Big candy bars wait on the table by the door. Scary music blares from the upstairs window and decorations abound. Each year more than once we’ll hear from parents who are escorting their little ones how they always looked foreword to the old house on the corner with the big candy bars. Sadly each year there are less and less kids showing up because the lure of the new big subdivisions calls. But that’s okay. As long as kids show up I’ll be there to give out candy, complement costumes and enjoy the night. Afterwards I think I’ll attempt to use my ghost hunting equipment.
Mayo, tomorrow you should pick out a pumpkin. Make sure to look for it’s ‘face’. Halloween is coming so get ready. I love autumn so much. Hope you do too!
Night Mayo

Toujours, your punishment is to be marooned on a deserted island with nothing but a crate of baby food for 5 years.
It's no big deal. ;) I never would have said it if it was.
Me
Special diets aren't too exciting to follow, but they make up for that by tasting bad. heeheehee
BC, do you think you've been bitten by...The Sane Bug? We talked about that earlier, it's quite dangerous. O_o
Thanks anon.
Thanks Sugarplum. I didn't eat much, just some sun chips, grapes, and lots of soymilk. And I had some pieces of chocolate earlier.
I was gonna make some soup, but I only wanted to lay down.
J typed that "sane bug" on accident. It's supposed to be "same."
Amy!!!! You missed my grand entrance. Shame on you! I was wearing a cerulean gown too. I had to change. It had an underwire bodice and was quite uncomfortable!
i accept my punishment, dw. and i've given my fingers a time-out for their bad behavior too. i'm actually typing this with my nose.
i'm glad i didn't say anything too awful. :)
LOL! Nice one DW!
Wendy, hold on. I'll go back and you can try again.
*hides behind the wall*

TEEJ! Fer God's Sake! Don't SNEEZE!

TJ: Exactly what "shade" does a tree turn when it blushes? I must know!
wendy, like i'd kiss and tell! you'll just have to find out for yourself. ;)
Hullo Amy. Did you have a nice bath? I lost my sanity a long time ago J ^_~
Sugarplum, the other day I sent you an email, but it's a short one so don't worry about it.

Good night
OH TJ! Are you alright? That was a very...unintelligible...sneeze! Did any of the keys come off your keyboard?
Well, I hate to run off so soon; but, I must. Yeah, try not to smile so much about that! ;)
Can one of you tell Ergo HELLO for me and give her this, please:
*smoooooooch*
Goodnight Mayo, SS, Amy, BC, J (and L ~ maybe on the sofa), TJ, DW, Redrum (whom I may have scared away), Carrie, Martha... everyone.
Sweet dreams to one and all! Have fun until then!
Goodnight MJ.
Goodnight Wendy, see you tomorrow hopefully! *hugs*
Goodnight Martha, hope you sleep well! *hugs*
DW: You? You what?
Carrie? hmmm...
Teej, I am never touching your keyboard, ever.
Wendy, but, but... okay. :(
Goodnight!
Goodnight MJ!
BC, it was a good, hot bath. The kind you need in these cold nights. And the warm fleece jammies aren't hurting me much either!
-A
*runs back in*
Amy: Watch this exit. I will be magnificent!!! ;)
Shucks, TJ! You're gonna make me kiss my own tree? What if I get a splinter? I need my lips for pouting purposes!
Sweetcheeks: I'll check my e-mail and respond ASAP! *huge hug and sloppy kiss*
Goodnight, again, all!
*blows kisses*
Hmmm...no...
Why so interested in flushing me out anon. I'm no one and not harming anyone.
J - "DW: You? You what?"
Amyranth - "So, what did I miss?"
Me - "Me"
They go together.
Goodnight wendy and mj sweet dreams.

I'm gonna take a nap. Be back in a bit.
Alright, TJ, put that E key down unless you plan on touching the gooey part yourself.
And don't make that face, it'll freeze that way.
Amy, quit aggravating your blogsister!
BC, I'm leaving you in charge since I'm going to bed.
