Ugh. Oleander and I had a cat (which lived to the semi-respectable age of 18) named Aiko. Now every time I think of my cat it will be joined in my head with robot nerd sex. Thanks once again Making Light, for making life less comfortable than it was. Sigh.

Mycroft W at #570 - Bizactly. The first thing that crossed my mind, even before the calendar disconnect.

The second was wondering where the link was for purchasing the teeny Madonna action figure accessory.

*sigh* "If it doesn't hurt..." of course.

Nix - I defrost mine in cool water, same as fast-defrosting a turkey. It only takes a half-hour to an hour. Having said that, I feel obligated to report that my RN husband (of the famously poisonous plant, above) defrosts it on the counter all the time, and he hasn't poisoned me yet (that I know). When carped at about that habit, he only repeats his tiresome "do as I say, not as I do". Almost as much of a saw with him as the "if it hurts, I'm not doing you any good."

Ritz crackers and fresh pine. Mom had Chunky Chicken Noodle soup and Ritz for lunch every day, so the smell of Ritz means staying home from school and Mom.

At the Presby church that I grew up, we'd put up two fresh pine trees and swags decorating the sanctuary at Christmas. I'm a non-churchgoing Deist now, but pine is still fellowship, worship and singing.

Few times have I been more proud of a MN politician than when Paul Wellstone told an interviewer right after his first Senate win that Helms "represents everything to me that is ugly and wrong and awful about politics."

The day is a bit brighter than it was.
