Another common problem I find is the order of drying: should I start at the hair and work my way down to the feet and why do I sometimes forget to do dry my back? Calgon, take me away>>> I'd say overusing the soap is fine, budget might suffer but other than that I'd be more worried of the strategic rubbing of the loofah sponge. That could cause nasty infections or too loud of moaning which would upset the neighbors but that's a whole nother story.

Ya know, things like another plasma TV for our bedroom, because we don't always like to play dress up in the front room. And I'm tired of mixing by hand, I want something electric. Everybody knows were gonna have a shower, so why can't we have it now? Is there anything wrong with this L & L?>>> Well, your other option could be taking your local Target store and all their customer hostage, demanding a list of items you want or you're gonna pick off customers one by one. Careful though some folks think showers are the equivalent to the above, I'd tread lightly. Maybe maxing out your credit cards and then waiting to pay them off with "cash only" on your wedding invitations would be a better plan.

I was frowning at the comment that play pen people are anxious to chew on people. I frowned because I am a frequent visitor to the playpen, some may even say "resident", lol, and I didn't want to be lumped in with chewers. If I can be lumped in with anyone I think (and hope? lol) it'd be the whiners before it would be the chewers!

Are you seated, dear? <picture a really tiny font here, like maybe 4 pt.> I agree with Lisa's advice. <back to normal size font> Now run along, dear, and for heaven's sake, don't tell anyone our little secret. Lisa is insufferable as it is; I simply can't imagine how much worse she would be if she knew I had actually endorsed, and wholeheartedly at that, a piece of her advice. Good luck, dear! Kindred spiritly yours, Miss Litter

Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Dear Living in fear, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE, DEAR, DO YOU WANT TO BE LOCKED IN THAT CLOSET AGAIN?!?

Get yourself out there immediately, dear, or you are sure to be condemned to that most heinous of all tasks. . . Lisann's Personal Scullery Maid. Good luck, dear! Anxiously yours, Miss Litter
Originally Posted By Lisann22 Living in fear redeemed her lazy hukkas by cutting us all up brie, salami, grapes, sourdough bread and some oil and vinegar. We had a delay in the tamale making, the masa froze again. So we are sitting and waiting. It's hard work being waited on hand and foot but she does eventually want to go home, so we all suffer for it.
