Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Can it have a setting for "do I have to choke a bitch"?
For that you need bacon.

Which mean it sucks to be you, Lee.

BACON !

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Kissing doesn't surprise me (though in Ancient China it was considered gross and kind of cannibalistic). You can have a lot of your cultural assumptions reset once you've read the personals in San Francisco. Somebody somewhere likes licking, nibbling or kissing some part of somebody else. Orality goes askew on a daily basis and some of it just stuck around as What The Cool Kids Do.

I'm unsurprised that Buffistas are so in touch with their inner Spock that they're all "Highly Illogical" about human behavior, but c'mon! Humans act on their emotions primarily and rationalize it afterwards. (I was just reading a Wall Street Journal article about this effect when the book Cognitive Dissonance was published in the fifities and how it was a huge influence on advertising and pyschology.)

Unfrozen Caveman Fangirl is frightened and confused by this.
I need to watch SPN on dvd for exactly this reason.

So I have a question. Is lavendar a grandma scent? Not sweet smelling lavendar, the tart one.

I've always heard it (and violet, which I would agree) as grandma scent. My grandmas smelled of Jean Nate, some outlawed soap (seriously, found it in Gramma's house and discovered it was a a toxic chemical and that was freaky!) or Chanel But I really like it. It's spicy.

This brought to you by me warming my feet in a bucket of water dosed with Dr. Bronner's lavendar soap. I HATE WINTER.

Oh, and wasn't today the day msbelle and mac met? Been with me all day. Holy crap!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Mr Jane and I actually got into that kissing conversation not too long ago. We tried to figure it out, but then it turned to porn.

Boy howdy, yes.

I mean, you saw the screencap Suela linked to in Boxed Set, right?

My Amazon order came today. All the Dark Angel novels.

I think Paul would have been less appalled had I ordered cheap porn.

I don't think of it that way. And with lavender's prevalence in aromatherapy, it just screams RELAX at me. Seriously, why's it got to yell? It's not relaxy...

See, it isn't relax to me. Too spicy. But soothing in that it is a scent I relly like that doesn't end up annoying the shit out of me. Unlike my salon's Aveda. Apparently I got some product on my brush saturday ( I had to wash my hair sat night in the sink.) Got a whiff of it today and was overwhelmed. Nice smell, just too much, too overpowering.
