I kind of felt like all this effort paid off a bit at my last high school reunion when a friend's husband met both me and my sister (who is younger than me but married a classmate). He told me that I looked younger than her. So I say moisturize away!

But I don't want to give a negative response since you've told me not to.
I don't moisturise because I can't be arsed. I'm sure it'd probably help somehow if I did, but I'm managing just fine without.

Last night we finally removed our wall cabinets in prepreation for the new ones arriving on Friday. Oh my god the evidence of past termite damage was terrifying. . . Also having your food and dishes spread around the house is not fun. It's likely to be that way for weeks. :(
I need to upload some of the pics. I think I have about a month's worth of photos languishing on my camera!

Sam the termite thing sounds awful. The whole idea of termites freaks me out!
― Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:40 (seventeen years ago) link
G. banished me and my asthmatic ways to the bedroom as he cleaned it all up but we will probably end up having to re-sheetrock that whole wall.
Our house is old by the way. This is what you get with old houses.

Sara, I will post a link to the pics when I upload. It is fascinating yet horrifying at the same time (mostly b/c it's my kitchen.)
Tonight we are having our valentine's dinner since only fools go out to eat on actual valentine's.
― Ms Misery (MsMisery), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:55 (seventeen years ago) link
Smart move going out tonight; actual Valentine's Day goings-out are overcrowded. We have no plans to go out at all; we haven't even been able to find a sitter so that we can go out for my birthday (which is rapidly fading into the past).
Are you going someplace special, Sam? Or trying something new?

Which is nice.. Not packed restaurant and can pick the one we like / to try/ best!

I will also be watching Lost on vday!

It will be our 4th or 5th anti-Valentine's day dinner. We gather up our friends, especially the single ones and go out to dinner. The hardest res on 2/14 is a deuce but for a table for 12, it's a cinch.

My son is at this age right now where he REALLY gets a kick out of saying things that are ALMOST swears, ie "son of a biscuit!", "holy grits!" etc. Sometimes when I and other adults accidentally cuss or say things akin to cussing, he will ask "is that okay for kids to say?". I think he's hoping I slip up one day and goes running to his mom school "FUCK FUCK FUCKITY FUCK...dad said it was okay!".

I swear way more than I should and usually Al3x doesn't repeat it. (J. does sometimes, though). The funny thing is that Al3x will call me out on really mild words like, "crap," which are apparently not allowed in school. He just ignores it if I use serious swear words.

I should totally tell people I will babysit on Valentine's Day - I never thought of it. I mean, we have movies and a ton of video games and popcorn and ... yeah.

Sam, it would be fun to watch LOST with people other than my husband, but most people are not fans of watching with closed captioning. I love it, though, because then I don't miss anything. (Kate chooses Sawyer, therefore proving that good taste occasionally prevails, even on network tv. I gotta say, though, that Jack's heroics made me almost like him.)

Am I wrong for being shocked that a v-day card and a pack of hairbands just cost me $7.50. what the hell? shit be expensive. . .
― Ms Misery (MsMisery), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 20:19 (seventeen years ago) link
Cards in general are insanely expensive. My mother has taken to not buying them and spending the money on a small thing of chocolates instead. I guess that wouldn't make much sense if you were sending chocolates already, though.

Sorry to hear about the cold weather Sam. My car said it was 5 degrees out when I dropped J. off at preschool; it would be okay if there wasn't some wind. Brrrr.
I thought I would be virtuous and exercise this morning, but I'm just going to take a nap instead.

I once created a file for one of the biggest Bollywood film stars. He had great press shots of himself. I wanted to keep them and hang them all over my cube.
