[QUOTE=Rasputina;913366]Oh, wow, thank you! I have the most mundane life ever, but in my head, it's all top-notch adventure. Another struggle: I sometimes eat this microwave popcorn from the store that's called "Butter Explosion," and it actually depicts a buttery explosion on the box. It disintegrates the roof of my mouth a bit.[/QUOTE]
Best post on the entire thread, thanks ;)
I succumbed to eating some birthday party ice cream yesterday, and now I have one of those ungodly underneath-the-skin chin pimples. It's the first cystic pimple I've had in well over a year. It could have been the ice cream, or the extreme stress of hydroplaning on the slick highway yesterday. I also have a tiny spider-bite on my tummy, which, unfortunately, when I went to scratch it at work, probably looked like I was scratching my lady bits. I'm making a fine impression, to be sure.
Hi Rasputina!
Oh, man! Don't you hate those one-two appearanches punches in life?? A monster zit and an itchy abdomen - ugh. There are some days when I think I must positively glow with wretchedness. My least-loved: shaggy and in need of a haircut, bra scootching, ass won't fit into the jeans, nothing nice in the closet, the monthly terror, and general awful pallor (you should see how pale I am in real life - this is not hard to accomplish for me). Those days make me wish the kids had a substitute mom I could somehow hire and send out into public with them - so the kids wouldn't be embarassed by me. (mind you, they aren't embarassed of me, but that is my mindset in those moments)
Just FYI - get B&T (Boericke and Tafel) brand homeopathic "Ssssting Stop" gel tube. We are never without it, and it works well. Local health food store should carry it.

Thanks, cakes! I'm sure you're a stunning mom, btw! Despite the pallor :) I think pale is lovely!
Debuted my new standing desk rig at work today- it was if I had parted the sea, people were so awestruck by it. Lol, it feels better to stand and type, I actually came home with more energy and my back and hips didn't hurt. I may start a revolution at the office, as my boss was bringing people by to look at my desk :) some even wanted to take measurements to build their own!
That's great! You're a trendsetter. ;)

Thanks, Joanie! I'm not really trying to be a trendsetter, but it just pains me that my co-workers find it so novel to stand for eight hours per day! I've done it for 16 years at work! I hope it does catch on, as I'd like my co-workers to experience renewed energy and not suffer from so many back problems :)
Rasputina! I didn't even know you had a new journal. I found you again PYT (Michael Jackson reference).
Impressed w/ the standing desk purchase. I just stand at my desk, you have taken it to a whole new level. How are things with the booze?
Have you read the [URL="http://www.paleoforwomen.com/hormonal-acne-where-its-coming-from-and-what-to-do-about-it/"]Paleo for women post on hormones and acne?[/URL] Speaking of hormones I was just reading about [URL="http://www.estrogendominanceguide.com/estrogen-weight-gain"]estrogen and fat[/URL], apparently being estrogen dominant can contribute to belly fat. Whacha think about that?
Hope you are having a super incredible amazing summer.
Hearts.
P.S. I jealous in my alternate life I would be a librarian.
