4/15!

Hope everyone got their taxes done or are wrapping things up post-haste.

Let's start today with an incredibly important link, courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] rougewench. Pulling No Punches, a speech by the mother of a dead soldier. Not fluffy Friday readings, but very, very moving.

I just bought this box for Mommy as a Mother's Day/Graduation present. I hope she likes it. I think it's gorgeous. I wish this artist did commission work because I would love to have an Erzulie box done by her. Alas, she says she's notoriously bad about getting commission stuff done, so she doesn't do them anymore. Fair enough. Guess that means I'll just have to make my own. =)

Speaking of making my own, anyone remember ages and ages ago, I asked people to save their Altoid tins for me? Still waiting on them, people. Would love at least a few. I can eat only so many Altoids myself. Thanks!

1. How often do you get sick? Waaaaay too often. I have the worst constitution of anyone I know.
2. Do you take a lot of over the counter medicine? And I know the generic names, baby.
3. Have you ever been in the hospital for an extended period of time? Luckily, no.
4. Are there any diseases that run in your family? Nope, we're pretty healthy when it comes to the serious stuff. *knock wood*
5. What is the best remedy for the common cold? Rest and lots of liquids.


Ah, dang it. Just realized I forgot to put dinner in the crock pot this morning. Rats!!!

I had forgotten. I have one nearly empty. It's ginger. Is that okay? (at least, I think it's Altoids....)

Flavor doesn't matter. I'll take any of them. Thanks!

So, then, how do I get this to you?

Remind me next time, I have two tins, and your little gloves to return to you.

Er. Hm. I'll be dancing at Aladdin's on May 5...would you be likely to come to that?

[identity profile] solan-t.livejournal.com 2005-04-18 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I could be. You will remind us all closer to the 5th, won't you?

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2005-04-18 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup.
