| Elora Lunasea Mrs. Llama   Join date: 28 Aug 2007 Posts: 4,828 | 04-16-2009 05:17 Love hyacinths! I had lots in flower all over Easter and the sunshine warmed them enough to scent the whole garden.   -- Aes I know! In the summer, the mainstays of my garden were roses, lavender, sweet allysum and heliotrope. The four would bring on the bees big time, but they filled the garden with so much fragrance it was worth dealing with the buzzing  _____________________  eloralunasea.blogspot.com Have you hugged a llama today?  |

And pretty much every other flower. Tulips, however, are my favorite.  @Amara -- fabulous pics; I especially love the sunset pic with the two planes on the deserted island.  @ Ashe -- really glad all's well in your world! @ Elora -- Two words: ear plugs  @ spike -- *waves* hope all is well with you @ Aes -- I am pretty East Coast of US-centric, aren't I?  I'll have to remember to start serving lunch or afternoon tea, too! |

Went exploring SploLand with a friend last night and had a blast - really cool place:  Oh, I am SO GLAD you went! We barely got through one part of the sim(s) the night we went, so we popped back in another night...and still have more to see.  |

| Elora Lunasea Mrs. Llama   Join date: 28 Aug 2007 Posts: 4,828 | 04-16-2009 05:46 LOL. I used to use them all the time when I lived in NYC. I'm loathe to use them now mostly because several years back, I got my first ear infection ever. Never had them as a kid, and suddenly as an adult, wham! Ear felt odd for a few days and I woke up one morning in agony, and deaf in that ear. The deafness lasted over a month after I was treated. The only time I use them now is if I'm on a long airplane trip and really need to sleep (music/movie is fine otherwise). I just can't get over thinking that somehow having those things in my ear all the time *might* have had something to do with it. Besides, just him rustling beside me is enough to wake me up. I'm a rather light sleeper. And, I have things to do too. There will be no sleeping in for the unemployed here  _____________________  eloralunasea.blogspot.com Have you hugged a llama today?  |

Join date: 8 Oct 2007 Posts: 11,319 | 04-16-2009 06:56 What really sucks about the spring snow storms is that it is almost always a very wet snow, which is hell on tree branches if we get very much, especially my younger trees. _____________________ ♥♥♥  -Lil Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on it? ~Mark Twain~ Optimism is denial, so face the facts and move on. ♥♥♥ Lil's Yard Sale / Inventory Cleanout: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Triggerfish/52/27/22 . http://www.flickr.com/photos/littleme_jewell |

I don't agree with many of the political opinions of posters here, and mostly, I keep my opinions to myself.  What I most object to though, are unfounded assertions of opinion as fact.  I merely looked up some actual facts to set the record straight.  It's late... this whole issue is disturbing to me. I really despair over our country, sometimes. You are entitled to disagree, and to voice those disagreements. No one here will attack you personally for your opinions in this thread. You are right, in politics each side tends to spin everything their way, there is no immpartiality. Usually the truth is somewhere in the middle. We all despair over what is happening, and we all react to it in our own way. _____________________ Don't you ever try to look behind my eyes.

I found Sploland last week, and Mo and I had a total blast poking around the place. Did you try the Doppler tunnel? re: Anthony Bourdain - I can see the attraction. He's at that mature age sweet spot. He's fit, intelligent. Rugged without being intimidating. Adventurous, well travelled. And he cooks to boot! Yeah...I can see why he'd be attractive. (memo to me: work on an Anthony Bourdain image) But...Toby Keith???   Ewwww! Seriously....ewwww!
