Was browsing my Tumblr dash and came across two gifs of two different blokes that made me go, "Whoa, they're hot." and that's the first time in about four years I've done that. Even back then I didn't do it much. I'm all weirded out at myself.

Dear Apple haters (also sometimes known as, but not restricted to, Droids),

etc.

I own a Mac laptop and an iPod Shuffle, but I prefer Droid phones to iPhones. Does this mean I should be at war with myself? Or have I just missed the part where I should care... Probably that.

Then again all I care about in relation to my phone is it's a whole hell of a lot smarter than my last one and was half the price of an unlocked iPhone with the same specs. So yeah. Priorities!

Random thought: Wearing a brace on my right hand is far more annoying than wearing a brace on my left had ever was. Especially when knitting because my thumb goes numb.

Tonight, I saw a cat that was entirely white, and some time later, a cat that was entirely black.

If I were any sort of a romantic I might ascribe some profound meaning to that.

I smell delicious

Nair is (or at least was) scented with cucumber and has made such a strong association between cucumber and hair melting chemical smell that I can't enjoy most cucumber scented beauty products.

I have a chocolate mint soap that makes me feel the exact same way. Sadly because I can't use soap very often (it dries out my skin way too much), I don't get to feel that way a lot.  :-(

Omg Kat I remember that, it smelled terrible!!


I think my favorite scented bath product is Nivea's touch of happiness body wash. It says on the bottle that it's "orange blossom and bamboo essense" but as ridiculous as this sounds, it really smells like happiness.

Lush Karma sent is the most amazing smell ever. I have every product they make in that scent. Bath bomb, soap, shampoo, lotion, body spray, and solid perfume. And after I use all of those I will keep my face in my shirt all day so I can smell myself.

My personal favourite was a Bath and Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom. It was really lovely smelling without being overpowering, and I'm rather sensitive to a lot of fragrances.


I could have done without the label telling me how exotic it was, though...
