Through the looking glass

Bucky, with all my cats I am GREATEFUL if I dont wake up with anything hot or bubbling on my pillow, thanks anyways.

Not even bubblin’ seamonkeys?

‘Cause who doesn’t like to wash down that bedtime snack with a heapin’ mugful o’ seamonkeys?

Bucky, well I dont have to explain to a lady of high refinement like yourself the value of a good gulp of fresh seamonkeys. Protein and all that. But I still dont want them doing the mambo all over my pillow. Or my eye….

Aw, I just read today’s entry. It brought tears to my eyes.

You have such a way with words, Heather. It’s truly a gift.

LeafGirl, peeps:

Jess…will seamonkeys in the eye affect one’s sight? If so, then someone needs to add that to the “you’ll go blind!” list.

Things that make you go blind (and as a four-eyes, I will refrain from editorial comment):

Masturbation
Seamonkeys in the eye
Naked pictures of Ernest Borgnine

…anyone care to add to the list?

Jessica Rabbit—seriously? Make your own peeps? Thank you, that’s fabulous, I know what I’m getting my sister for her birthday. You absolutely are my hero of the day.

Things to make you go blind:
A rusty spike through the eye.
A rusty spike through each eye.

Oh, and because I was catching up on old posts when everyone was commenting the day Heather brought up Grosser than gross…
What’s grosser than gross?
Jumping off the empire state building and getting your eyelid caught on a rusty nail.

Bucky, Seamonkeys in the eye sting, seamonkeys in your hair make it shiny. At least that is what he keeps telling me.

Also things that make you go blind, getting poked in the eye. No really, it can. My mom always said, dont do this, dont do that, you might get poked in the eye and go blind. There are kids in africa that get poked in the eye and go blind! Do you want to be that kid??

Or was it starving kids in africa eat your beets? Hmmmmmmm

I always wondered why I couldn’t just send ‘em the damn beets.

I think beets make you go blind. Or at least, they make you wish your tastebuds would fall off.

Susannah, yep they really have them. My boys wanted to get one for their dad cause he loves peeps so much. They have cotten candy machines too, and stuff to make at home ice cream like soft serve DQ ice cream. So much stuff in the toy store rocks…

I feel exactly the same way about the lavender and chamomile lotion. It helps me keep my daughter a baby in my mind.

what will make you go blind:
being a wanker
being intolarant of others views
endless season of snow

OOOohhhh! It’s baaaaccckk! I’m lovin it.

I’d have to say: you’re absolutely gorgeous, Heather!

Lawbrat, you think that nasty frozen moneyshot from the sky is gone for the year now? I have to say that April snowstorms get me pissin’ mad.

Bucky, my parents had a huge garden so for several months of the year we all pee’d red from all the beets.

Now as an adult, I would be very concerned if I pee’d red half the year. But according to my guy, drink enough grape soda and your poop will turn bright green.

Oh, and I know we’re not supposed to discuss politics, but did anyone else see the front page of the New York Post today with G.W. HOLDING HANDS with the Saudi guy? I just know I’m gonna lose sleep over that.

Heather B. Armstrong for President, 2008!

Jess, really? Grape soda=green poop?

And all this time I blamed it on the alien anal probes.

Bucky, he swears by it. Its science.

SCIENCE!

No Bucky, that’s from when Gumby gave you a Dirty Sanchez!

It’s amazing what can remind us of our inner strength and will to live, isn’t it? Your story about the scent was lovely.

For me, the reminder is a visual thing. When I had a breakdown in 1991 and spent a month as an inpatient, part of my healing involved art therapy. One week I made dozens of small, intricately designed polymer clay beads and strung them into a long necklace. During the years after my breakdown, I learned a lot about myself and the beautiful things about being alive. I also went on to earn 3 advanced degrees; one from a very prominent school. I carried those beads with me every time I needed to be reminded to keep moving ahead with my life and not to become afraid — nothing would ever be as hard as those days in the past.

Just a few moments ago, I had a student come to my office for a conference. She noticed the colorful string of beads hanging over the framed edge of one of my diplomas, and she really admired them.

I told her they are one of my most valued treasures — even more than the diplomas. And they really are.

Three things:

1.) Smell has been proven to be the strongest of the five senses at evoking memories.

2.) Your hair is magnificent and is making me wild with jealousy.

3.) Hooray, comments!

Thanks, Heather.

Muffy, Gumby’s been talkin’ hasn’t he? He _promised_ it was just between us… *sob*

Jess – I like to change the word “Science” to “Hatpins.” Then I can sing “She blinded me…with HATPINS!”

Now Raz, http://tinyurl.com/dvybo cracked me up.

http://tinyurl.com/5sxtp on the other hand was sick sick sick. Who are these people?

Then again, being accepting of others…at least they make each other happy, right?

Hatpins? Pfffft, how bout Nipples.

She blinded me with nipples. NIPPLES!!
