Showering, Snacking, & Smiley Has Cursed Me

Posted by Lynnster on January 30, 2007

Bits ‘n pieces, changing the subject from all this tech talk ‘cos now I’m starting to bore my own self…

First, I’m planning to attend the Saturday Sarcastro Showering this weekend unless Tennessee sees a blizzard afoot. Hope I get to meet some more of you lovely NIT folks there. (Along with the ones I already know are going, of course, as well as those I’ve already met in person.) That would be rad.

Second, having been addicted to Extra sugar-free gum in Polar Ice and Eclipse mints in Winterfrost for some time (why I don’t prefer the Polar Ice mints too is beyond me), I must report that I have stepped out of my little box this week and am enjoying some Trident Splash gum in Apple Raspberry, and Trident White in Cool Colada. I know you needed to know all that. (P.S. The Cool Colada is especially yummy.)

Lastly – dear god, please tell me there is somebody else who now can’t go to this blog without starting to dance in one’s computer chair and softly humming or singing to themselves: “Rex, Rex, Rex L. Camino…”? Smiley’s 12 Days of Blogger Christmas was by far one of the most brilliant things I’ve ever had the privilege to witness on the Internet, but has resulted in a lasting affliction for moi, I’m afraid. If only I had a Carmen Miranda fruit basket hat, that would make it all perfect. (And probably keep me occupied when my family commits me to the psych ward, too.)

    Because of the Rex L. Camino blog, I’m reading everything with the voice of Jack Lord in my head. It’s awesome.

    Shit, if you’re going, I guess I need to too. Or I’ll try my best.

    Hold up – that last comment made it sound as if I didn’t want to go. I do, really. I’m just having to do some major juggling.

    Just emailed you, but like I said in it, don’t worry too much if you can’t make it. I feel sure I will be up that way several times between now and summer, seriously!!
