Is there anything funnier than tiny cat pants?
It seems unlikely, but my goal in life is to find out.

Like Donnell Alexander says, "It's about completing the task of living with enough spontaneity to splurge some of it on bystanders, to share with others working through their own travails a little of your bonus life." But, it's mostly the kind of place that folks looking for "girls and cars" stumble across by accident.

The Butcher--My youngest brother, who lives with me and works as, you guessed it, a butcher. He knows everyone in town.
The Recalcitrant Brother--Our middle brother, who lives in rural Georgia and has a kind of movie star life, if that movie star is Burt Reynolds in Deliverance.
The Reverend--Our Dad, a Methodist minister, perpetually three years from retirement.
Mom--Our Mom. She doesn't get a funny nickname because our mom will not stand for funny nicknames.
Mrs. Wigglebottom--My dog. She's got terrible manners.
The Corporate Shill--Or The Shill, as we call her. My friend from college who was constantly getting me into trouble and going to parties she neglected to tell me about where cute boys would ask her "Where's Aunt B.?"
The Legal Eagle--The Shill's husband.
The Super Genius--She lived next door to me my freshman year of college and we've been friends ever since my first day on the floor.
Miss J.--My first adult friend, meaning the first lasting friendship I made after college. She was my roommate in grad school.
Her Lover--Her Husband.
The Divine Ms. B.--Miss J.'s sister and one of my heroes, because she's brave and funny and mystic and fearless.
JR--My oldest friend. I've known her since I was in the second grade.
Elias--JR's husband and the person who's musical tastes have most strongly affected my own. Oh, how I long to be cooler than him!
The Professor--My closest friend here in Nashville. She's a genius, but she'll never tell you that.
The Man from GM--I've known him since I was 16 and he still hasn't forgiven me for telling him I was a vegetarian when I wasn't.
The Redheaded Kid--No one knows where he comes from or where he goes when he leaves here. I assume he's the Butcher's friend. The Butcher assumes he's mine.

I'll take it a step further and say that if you can smell it all, you're wearing too much.
I am of the firm opinion that cologne/perfume should be something that is undetectable if you are not invading the personal space of the wearer.
The allergy-stricken among us thank you.
It's pretty inappropriate in the office. Maybe this guy is just responding to your new bra B.
btw, that last post was NOT from me.

Way back in 8th grade, I used to sit behind Michael Lovelace. He was huge, had a moustache, attached ear lobes, and wore buckets of Hai Karate.
Needless to say, he was the coolest kid in class.

Makes you wonder what they are covering up.
Aunt B, could you address your note to your female readers, too? I'm frigging TIRED of taking Zyrtec and wheezing like a steam engine again because two women on my floor bathe in Eau de Stank every morning. I was never allergic until this year, and it is AWFUL.
Please, those among you who add scent to your morning toilette, don't do it. Save it for your honey when you get home. (And if you're doing it because your honey is at the office, stop it, because that's just wrong anyway.)
Love (hack snort spit),

... cologne/perfume should be something that is undetectable if you are not invading the personal space of the wearer.
Yes.
A P.S to my comment -- If you're wearing cologne/perfume, don't be invading the personal space of others. (That needs to be directed to my co-worker who feels a need to virtually lie down on people to talk to them. I'm shrieking 'GET OFF ME' the next time it starts.)
