Not literally. <BR/><BR/>FreckledK - I know - so much the same...except your love of truly terrible TV!<BR/><BR/>Jessica - It makes a huuge difference, the music. And we will always be on each other's good sides. :)<BR/><BR/>RestaurantRefugee - Yes!! It's that extreme! Intense and hateful and boundless.<BR/><BR/>Paula - I was going to say no...and then HKW commented!<BR/><BR/>DCup - Hugs, my friend.<BR/><BR/>HKW - You are adorable. Clean laundry smells so good...but it's so annoying to fold and cram into drawers! This, I think, is an indication of how organized you are...and how organized I would like to, but probably never will, be.<BR/><BR/>LiLu - I definitely got a lot more baby-friendly in the last several years. My entire twenties were pretty full of baby-loathing, quite honestly.<BR/><BR/>Arjewtino - I need quiet for these as well. Too much going on otherwise.<BR/><BR/>FoggyDew - In agreement with both of you. And LiLu's b-day party sounded like a ton of fun.<BR/><BR/>Aimee - I love getting them washed, and I love pulling them out of the dryer...but if it weren't for Nick, they'd sit in a big pile in the chair for weeks on end.<BR/><BR/>Nicole - I know - most people play music. I don't usually want the distraction.<BR/><BR/>lizzledinwizzle - Hmm...I dunno! I'm glad to know I'm not alone in these, though.<BR/><BR/>Jo - I've discovered that if you stick to knits, the wrinkles hang out pretty well while you wear them. I think I'd trade warm weather for sweaters and boots. As for lotion, sometimes it's just too cold - I want to get dressed right after I shower rather than dilly dallying with the lotion.Lemon Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07280085058516960260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2117136912052729666.post-30063791027481520152008-11-20T10:34:00.000-05:002008-11-20T10:34:00.000-05:00Folding and putting away the laundry is a big prob...Folding and putting away the laundry is a big problem for me, too.
