Gah! This is why I tend to lurk on these threads
So here's one - did you see the story of the shelter pooch who got adopted via the video of him begging for belly rubs? (apologies for the ad that precedes it)
Well, I once dressed our terrier up as a horse when my daughter was young. She was dressed as a rider, the dog had a tiny saddle and bridle, and I dressed up as a bale of hay.
What's the best costume you've ever worn?
my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf

Pic? I can see it in my mind.
I did a Bride of Frankenstein thing ages ago. Two cans of Aquanet to get my hair to stand up. Just don't have the patience for that anymore.
Hot. And my favorite flavors from the Tea Cupboard downtown are Monk's Blend (green flavored w/blackcurrant & vanilla), Lady Londonderry (black fw strawberry & lemon), and a Masala Chai Rooibos.
I need a better tea steeper, what should I get? (I have one of those steel mesh tea balls, not a fan of it.)
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
Hmm... I know a guy who does some kick ass pottery. I might ask him to make something like this. Reminds me, I need to find out when he has another show.
Did you prefer Nestle Quik powder or Hershey's syrup to make chocolate milk as a kid (or now for that matter)?
When I was a kid, I used quik...the square jar with the funky metal lid that you had to use your spoon to open.
Ever have that cocoa that comes from the machine and is amazing? (no matter what I do, I cannot make it to be the same)

I do. There is a fabulous Canadian who is making a big trip to see some band in some country south of us . . .
Back to the chocolate milk discussion. Nestle Quik? Really? I'm an Ovaltine girl all the way. None of that stuff! I LOVE Ovaltine to this day. Sad to admit, but true.
We sell tea cups like that at work. I've wondered if the loose tea would go through the holes and leave you with bits in your tea? We do sell a lot of them. I would be more apt to purchase the cup with the close knit mesh basket instead.
Have you ever tried to have a conversation with a friend who happens to be in the full throes of an ADD cycle?

I haven't.
But, I think many of us have visited that ADD-ish vicinity.
DEP- I haven't found bits in my tea, but they don't bother me if I do find it in any tea I drink.
First time I stayed at my grandparents' they made ovaltine in a cereal bowl and given a choice of cereal...frosted flakes or honey comb. I grudgingly ate the honey comb, and then they yelled at me (to the point of me in tears) because I didn't drink the cereal milk/ovaltine. They wouldn't stop yelling until I drank the disgusting slop, then ran to the bathroom to puke up my breakfast. That was the last time I saw my grandparents...and the last time I touched ovaltine.
Do you like flavored popcorn?

Oh jeez, RK. That makes me wanna hug you.
I am a lover of all popcorn. White cheddar, caramel, buttery. Yes and yes.
Is it too early to be jonesing for a good scary movie for Halloween?
Comments
Are those Helpful Honda Dealer commercials irritating as hell?
Would being an anonymous philanthropist be the shit - in a good way?
(it's one of my many fantasies)
(and I also just thought of that Curb episode)
The American History X curb episode we just talked about is the one you are thinking of or another curb scene?
Is there a movie so completely disturbing that you love and you know that in some small way you shouldn't?

And yes, Natural Born Killers. An absolutely sick, twisted and beautiful film.

Have you seen the video of the corgi pup being vexed by a mini pumpkin?
(I could EAT HIM UP)
Are you a fan of dressing animals up for Halloween (assuming they're cool with it)?
What's the best costume you've ever worn?
I did a Bride of Frankenstein thing ages ago. Two cans of Aquanet to get my hair to stand up. Just don't have the patience for that anymore.
Are you luxuriating with some wine at the moment?
Are you a bit puzzled why some threads go on and on, gathering speed (perhaps someone is fucking with them?), and others just don't??
Might someone sleep well tonight?
Do you have a favourite tea?
Hot or cold tea?

Should I go to all of the scheduled talks today or should I skip out?
Do you know someone who is going on a trip soon?

So don't apologize; you're loved no matter what
Do you make a point of getting your YOU time?
