Sundry Sunday: Christmas and Vinegar
1. Since I've been on the subject of searches people are using to come to my site, here's a good one from the other day: "farts are smelling really horrible." Whoever you are, I feel for you. Because I've been there.
2. WHERE THE HECK ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO HANG YOUR STOCKINGS IF YOU DON'T HAVE A FIREPLACE? I cannot figure this out. We have these beautiful monogrammed stockings from Land's End, and they MUST BE HUNG. I am at a loss.
3. That one Tom Waits song? When the robots are down in the underground metal-melting chop shop place? Coolest song ever.
4. What are you supposed to do when your kid grabs a glass ornament off the shelf at Target and chucks it across the aisle where it shatters into a jillion pieces? Is running away really fast ok?
5. Apparently Elle McPherson is an inattentive mother. This is strangely comforting to me.
6. Ok. What is it about Salt-and-Vinegar potato chips that make them so disgustingly irresistible? I mean, the taste is awful and it makes me shudder and yet I can't stop eating them. I can hear them calling to me in the middle of the night, begging me to partake of their sour, salty goodness. A conundrum.
7. AND OH MY GOSH why are tree skirts so flippin' expensive? $40 for a crappy little circle of fabric with a hole in the middle of it? Yeah, I don't think so.
8. I know it only cost $1.99, but still I was expecting my Glitter Snow Drape to look a little less like dryer lint.
9. Finally, and most importantly: our Tivo only recorded the first half of Lost and I think I will really, truly die if I don't find out what happened. It's a life or death matter folks. Help a poor girl out.
