My today's special word pet peeve is self-indulgence. It's a good word defining something ugly.

I indulged in a gym, painful and self-investing  . Must-read stuff can wait. The air smells so magic, tonight. Warm.

Frenemies...
a good (real) friend from the UK mentioned that to me the other day and I'd never heard it before. For those so-called friends who are constantly digging at you and stabbing you in the back, but suddenly become your friend again when they need something from you (ditch them, I say, life's too short).

Or opportunists, and those are available in all strata. I am a fan of ditching them, too.

Why mermaid?  merboy, merwoman, merman, merpeople  For me, "The Magic School Bus".
I found that Cenovis and Vitam-R are similar to Marmite. |

Mermaid..yeah, good point, I have no idea of the actual etymology, but maid used to mean simply a girl, if I remember well.
Magic School Bus sounds great...will watch it. When I am done with Portlandia, hahah.

Cenovis comes in jars as well, just in case you change your mind.
I am not sure you will be into "The Magic School Bus"  because it's a cartoon series for kids, which gets watched a lot around here. |

Excellent word choice above, glow is great too. Torrid.
I miss deserts, in fact.. And people who live in them. Maybe we can embrace the heat these few days.
