Why hello to you too!

Gravatar Did you use the Burt's Bees coconut foot creme?

Remind me never to eat potatoes at your house, seeing as you put nail polish* on them. Sheesh!

*That's not local!


Gravatar Heh. i love seeing how people parse that silliness.

The expression came from my sister *singing* to our childhood dog: "Jump right up like a sacka pah-taaaay-duz!"

So now everything can be done "like a sack of potatoes" but am unsure as to explaining what it means. I'd literally have to go through and make as many sentences as I could, determine whether they were grammatical to me or not, and then determine a meaning.

Eesh. I'm SO over linguistics.


Gravatar I so want a pedicure - even if I do it myself. Now if I could just dispose of the other members of my household (the five year old has fire engine red toes, by the way), I'd have some time!


Gravatar You should see my feet. Or rather, you shouldn't! Ew. Cracked, dirt-stained, nasty.

Can't wait until you get here. Bring your swimsuit if you like...Sunday evening will be spent BBQing by English Louise's pool!


Gravatar Yayyyy for pedis. But be careful with that foot rasp. I just recently used one for the first time and because it didn't hurt when I was "rasping" I went to town. And the next evening after walking around some shops my heels were stinging


Gravatar Imp: I couldn't find the little travel tube of coconut foot cream I was gifted at a conference a few years ago. But here at work I have some peppermint foot lotion. Which I will use now. Thanks for the reminder!

Maggie: It was SO worth it to take the time and just polish things up a bit. Make husband (Charlie, right?) take the little one(s?) for 30-45 minutes and soak the feet.

Jamie: Will bring suit! My feet were dirt-stained and shedding gross foot skin. They needed the rasp.

Speaking of rasp, Cristin, perhaps you didn't need one as much as you thought! I have such a thick layer of dead skin that I could keep going and going and going and I don't think it would hurt. That's what happens when your feet are funny like mine. (I have an extra bone in my right foot, which messes with my stance.


Gravatar (Burt's bees peppermint foot lotion, by the by. LOCAL! And my coffee this morning? LOCALLY roasted!)


Gravatar urghghghglglglglglghghghg!

Sorry. I was just grossed out by the thought of why a sex ed professional would have peppermint foot creme in her office, of all places.

I just don't want to know.

gross.gross.gross.


Gravatar !!!!!!!!!!!!
It's simple! I got a new job, and so treated myself to a small burt's bees sampler to keep in my office. In addition to the lip balm and hand creams and such, it also came with a small tube of peppermint foot lotion!

Sheesh.

I actually don't even do that much sex ed anymore. I do other teen education stuff. Like life skills: decision-making, goal-setting, communication skills, stress management, values identification, nutrition, exercise, smoking cessation, hygiene, mental health, and on and on and on. In my former job it was all sex ed all the time, but this is less so.

(But I've been known to blow two condoms up like balloons, take a chapstick out my purse, get lube from the teaching kit and show how oil breaks down latex and water based lube doesn't. That's fun!)
