Trying to explain to toddlers that although the sun is shining and the sky is blue, more than 10 minutes outside WILL turn them into human Popsicles.

Just dress them up and send them out to play - they'll get the message pretty quickly.  | Quote: | | | | | It will be just today, tomorrow and Wednesday... | | | | | You do realise that today is Tuesday? And while it might warm up some, it's still going to be below freezing here with some snow forecast. Not due to get above freezing until late on Saturday.

Took my Audi Quattro out in the red snow warning the whole process was so boringly composed.

My other fwp is: finding ways of a discreet, untraceable 'loss' of silk hankies and other useless crap...

UK news channels' weather coverage: reporters smothered and generously covered and whipped by falling snow: just to add a bit of drama. Oh, look, I got snow on my cheek and eyebrow and it's not melting! I am keeping it as is, I look so cool and brave!  |

Interdiscount adviertises that if you order today before a certain time, you will get your order tomorrow. I ordered the TV last Sunday and did not get it until Thursday.
Thanks for screwing with my plans last week.

Just seen the new Clarins tv advert for moisturiser with kangaroo flower extract. "Alexa!!! What the freakin' hell is kangaroo flower?" But Alexa doesn't do pictures, so have to revert to Go Ogle.

Not sure whether you'll like the flower or like a kangaroo after using it. Please let us know

Working at home too much - though so comfortable, nice and cozy, create my own working semi-disciplined schedule - need people! Lunches with Ted Talks. Yes, definitely need to change my career from composer to sales.
