mystery, smells, & faeries

remember how i sent the mystery answer watch off to the watch doctor? well, they couldn't fix it... but... they sent another one. happy dance! happy dance! that watch doctor is the best. they sent the broken one back and sent another one. stellar. so, now i have 2 mystery answer watches, although one doesn't have indiglo - duh, that is why i sent it off in the first place. there might be times one doesn't require indiglo. like, in the daytime. right.

remember the softsoap dispenser with the plastic parrot inside? it was filled with clear softsoap that smelled like soap from brigadoon. in a fit of excitement, i purchased a large container of the stuff. smell is the sense most closely tied to memory. it was going to be stellar. constant brigadoonalization. well, you probably know the punchline -- after a couple weeks of the stuff, the magic wore off... leaving just plain soap. sadness.

remember how i was reading artemis fowl? well, i am not anymore -because i finished it. it's a pretty good little read. reminiscent of faerie wars, but that could be caused by my having read faerie wars a few years ago. at any rate - they both contain fairies, so there you have it.
