Who says "bring the action" in that will.i.am/brittney song? To me it sounds like Spock b

If only this lovely wacky lady were cool enough to have heard of Star Trek.

I think it must be nice to be the kind of woo woo person that only meets great people. You know--everyone's an old soul who's ready to take that next big step actualising themselves? Sort of how everyone who has their past lives read was a member of Egyptian royalty? One of the same five or six pharoahs?

In terms of places to buy tea on the interwebs--Teavana, Lupicia, Upton, Adagio--anywhere else worth recommending for loose tea? I'm looking for cassis/blackcurrant (I'm hoping I finally remember that translation this time) but not in a black tea, since I seem to have fallen out of the habit of drinking that almost accidentally.

I was reconciling my tea cupboard, and I realise that I'm holding onto some teas in case company wants some.

Hands up everyone that's had tea at my house? Exactly. Yet, still holding on to a box of mint, which I don't drink, and orange pekoe, which I haven't had in gazillionty years.

Teavana's marketing emails are one of the few I haven't unsubscribed from, because they're pretty (that's my current excuse for Eden Fantasy too), and they worked on me--I picked up a couple ounces of Strawberry Rose Champagne yesterday, a light oolong which is as dark as I drink, and only rarely. It's very tasty. Do recommend.

Right. I should eat something other than that batch of oatmeal cookies I made this morning, huh? I bet I have pot roast in the freezer.

Is Woo Woo Nurse licensed to medicate herself? Because it sounds like she either needs some drugs or is already taking the wrong ones.

I'm guess woo nurse is doing home drug admin because no one wants her in a place of medical operation....

Is Woo Woo Nurse licensed to medicate herself?

She has a machine at home for that.

I'm going to reiterate what Burrell said earlier that Woo Woo nurse does not sound as out of place in Los Angeles. Most of the things she has said seem to match the usual LA crazy. I doubt it would limit her ability to be hired if she is a nurse.

That oolong sounds delicious. I am a huge oolong fan these days. ita, there's a couple tea places in WLA/Culver City area that may interest you. One is the Conservatory of Tea and Coffee in CC on Washington, and the other is a store in the Westfield/formerly Fox Hills Mall by Slauson and Sepulveda. Both sell loose leaf teas. Bird Pick in particular comes to mind because they have a whole display of something like 10+ fruit tisanes.

There's also a bird pick in Pasadena.

I really like Bird Pick! I had a delicious lavender tea latte there a few weeks ago.

I am sick with a code. A code that has left me with a stuffy node.

So I'm watching Talking Dead (by mistake, but it's kind of interesting). They do have a weird insert that takes the zombie apocalypse seriously, and they mention the rule of three, that you can't survive more than:

• 3 minutes without air
• 3 hours without shelter
• 3 days without water
• 3 weeks without food

I'm assuming the air rule is "brain without" and not breath holding, because I sure can't. But the criterion that really confuses me is the shelter one. Doesn't it need way more qualification? The same guy went on to get more confusing by explaining there are different kinds of shelter, like something to wrap around your arm like a bandage, or getting out of the elements, so what good is that as a tip for the end of civilization?
