Illume "Vanilla Amberwood" scent candles = droooooooool. Delicious and spicy and a little rich and slightly sweet and I wish I had a fragrance oil like this (and that they came in beeswax or at least palm or soy instead of only paraffin). If it didn't smell good on me, I could liberally apply it to enotsola, who would then be summarily et with a spoon. (Special note to enotsola: under no cirumstances combine this with that other stuff we were talking about yesterday. The results could be... troublesome.)

What does the idiom "tongue in cheek" (meaning basically "not serious") actually refer to? The only time I see people making a facial expression which involves sticking their tongue into the inside of their cheek is for "blow job" jokes. Is there something else going on with the verbal expression?

It's faceboob, it's faceboob
It's a curve whose placement is wrong
It's faceboob, it's faceboob
At least it isn't face-dong!

oh, and it ain't even Dec. 1 yet

I have not been anything even approaching a (Catholic) Christian since I was 11 years old (when I did my own Masses in the back yard -- no, rly), but I still love Advent calendars. Pictures only, no chocolate, even. I've even troubled to make my own on a couple of occasions, I love them that much. My mother, who has similarly not been anything approaching Christian for years, appears to have finally cottoned on to the idea of buying secular ones, rather than ones which have Bible verses and reveal a baby Jesus on Christmas. (Yes, I know how ironic it is to say "secular Advent calendar" and complain about Jesus appearing in something so intimately connected to Christmas.)

Really, I should make a "Solstice Advent" kind of thingy. I mean, it's hard to argue with greenery and presents and warm cookies and candles and fires and eggnog and plum pudding and shiny ornaments and all. Who cares why? Not to belittle anything -- though I've done Solstice vigil on more than one occasion, the idea of Midnight Mass is still very attractive to me. It's that Pagan lust for fancy robes, pompous speechin' and candles, I tellya (not that I would dream of trying to take Communion; that's someone else's sacred mystery, not mine).

'Course, on that logic, there should be eggnog year-round.

...Who's with me?! ;)
