Kookie
A few weeks ago, a marketing woman from the Doubletree downtown brought me delicious chocolate chip cookies in a nice tin. I am alone in my capitol office most of the time, except for photographers who change out daily. Occasionally I'd offer a cookie to a photog. But almost everyday I would hit that tin for a sweet treat of my own.
The other day I returned to the tin for a familiar cookie. I opened it up and found this:
I am now asking for handwriting samples from all photogs who come into the office, because I'm gonna track down this clever cookie monster, mark my words.

Hooked on Phonics
Which is worse, misspelling the word "definitely" by spelling it "definately" -- or totally destroying the word by spelling it "defiantly"? I can't decide which is more offensive.

Needles
Got the results back from my allergy skin testing, which I finally resorted to after rubbing out half my eyelashes due to my daily allergies. Three boxes of Kleenex a week is also making for a lot of trash around my room.
So, Dr. Reddy looked at my results and said I was "basically allergic to everything". And he wondered why I hadn't gotten this done way earlier. Among my allergic triggers:
Dog
Cat
Ash
Cedar
Oak
Elm
Maple
Mesquite
Willow
Tumbleweeds
Assorted weeds
Ragweed
Bermuda Grass
Johnson Grass
Dust mite
Mouse
But I did test negative for cockroach. Apparently I can hang out with those, no problem.

What I Have Been Doing Besides Blogging on 67 Degrees
- A Felicity marathon thanks to NetFlix (omigod, Stiles is Ben! Ben is Stiles!)
- Mommy's visit
- Destroying my front lawn (I can't explain random brown patches)
- Trying to get Saidee to stop licking her girl parts
- Entering into probably unethical bets about a recent runoff, in which I won a free lunch
- Pimping out Little Lost Robot's haiku post on my political blog

What Happened To Your Face, Woman?
Um, remember Lara Flynn Boyle, from Twin Peaks and The Practice? Here's a recent picture of her. All I gotta say is, WTF? I'm not sure this can be attributed to plastic surgery, cause aren't facelifts supposed to make your face tighter, not saggier? Something ain't right.
