I do love maple leaves

Adam's current job is in Quebec. Canada. And he's driving. Because the boss forgot to send the laptops ahead of time. Adam and Lex will be driving fourteen hours to deliver a bunch of computers to our northern sibling. I won't see him until Tuesday, maybe Wednesday. But I honestly feel less anxious when he is driving rather than flying. Also, I hope he brings home a bottle or two of methocarbamol. You can buy it over the counter in Canada.

Tomorrow, Bane and Red will knock on my door and become temporary housemates while they decide where to live during Red's pregnancy. The side room has a sleeping pad, there is plenty of food in the kitchen, and I am looking forward to the daily company.

Luna says hi. Actually, "Mreh!" She doesn't meow unless she is talking to a non-family human.

Failure Is Good For You

Reading this was like watching my future self slap my current self in the face a few times. I love this post:

My first practice novel was written when I was nine, and it was about a teenager who finds a magical cat who saves her life. It was followed by a novel about the last dragon on Earth who finds that he is not alone. Oh, fantasy fiction, I love you.

Products Specified

1. Concealer: Currently, I rotate between Fresh Umbrian Clay Absolute Concealer, Lancome Effacernes Waterproof Concealer, Cory Cosmetics Cream Concealer or Cream Foundation, and MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation. I also sometimes use Physician's Formula Circle Rx Concealer. These products all last a very long time, the way I use them.

2. Lip Balm: Currently I rotate between Walk In Beauty Goddess Lip Balm, Solum And Herbe Lip Care Stick, Pixi Lip Booster in Clear, Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Extreme, Physician's Formula Organic Wear SuperFruit Gloss in Super Sheen, and Carmex Moisture Plus.

3. Moisturizer: Currently, I rotate between Walk In Beauty Sun Protective Lotion, Walk In Beauty Psyche Lotion, Walk In Beauty Sacred Circle Salve, Anna Bellina Super Skin Dry Skin Oil, Bunny's Bath CoQ10 Face Cream, Jeune Peau Time Reversal Cream, One With Nature Shea Butter Goji Berry Lotion, 100 Percent Natural Pink Grapefruit Body Cream, and Jergens Naturals Total Nourishment Lotion.

3. Cell Phone: Samsung A237. It's blue. I just use it for calls and photos. I hate texting.

4. Paperback novel: Currently I am reading CE Murphy's Walking Dead and have almost finished Diane Duane's The Book of Night with Moon which I adore beyond adoring.

5. Lipstick: Currently, I rotate between Origins Flower Fusion in Dahlia, Estee Lauder Hydra Lustre in Cranberry, BareMinerals Natural Gloss in Pomegranate, Laura Mercier Sheer in Sexy Lips, and Josie Maran in Desirous. The common thread is that all these shades look like blood or blush or kisses.

6. Hair ties: I like Goody and Scunci, thick the metal-free bands. Rose likes to play fetch with them, and has learned how to pull them off my wrist. My house is littered with hair ties.

7. MSM: This little supplement can do a ton of good things for me: smoother skin, thicker hair, pain-free joints, relaxed muscles, reduced pain, reduced fatigue, reduced allergies, reduced digestive problems, better concentration, less inflammation, stronger teeth, and more energy. If I stop taking it, I definitely feel it.

8. Yerba Mate: I usually take the extract in capsule form, which delivers a nice shot of energy and concentration. But I love the tea. The taste is an acquired taste.

9. Acai berry juice and Goji berry juice: At my local Giant Foods, there is always a sale on Bom Dia Acai Energy Conquer Juice. This juice contains a significant amount of both acai and goji, as well as yerba mate, green tea, black tea, grape juice, yumberry juice, pomegranate juice, guarana, and mangosteen. If I don't have this beverage at least once a week, I get antsy and start craving it.

10. Passion Flower and L-Tryptophan: They do a wonderful job of relaxing me and sending me to sleep. I buy each in capsule form, in therapeutic doses.
