Friday Five

Friday Five

1. What cologne or perfume do you wear?
I don't wear purfume much anymore. I think the only bottle I still own is a vial of Jovan Musk that I had in college from the late eighties (does purfume go bad?).

2. What cologne or perfume do you like best on the opposite sex?
Mmmm, Polo. The smell makes me swoon. It's been my favorite male scent since I smelled in on the head drummer in high school. Drakkar Nior is a really close second, though.

3. What one smell can you not stomach?
Rum. I hurled it in college while losing a game of quarters.

4. What smell do you like that others might consider weird?
Burning pine (see this blog entry).

5. How do you plan to spend your weekend?
Working, as usual. I'm also going to tackle cleaning my craft room since Marcus' parents are coming for a visit and Marcus wants the house ship shape.

ICQ is Making Me Nuts

Now I'm really confused. Why can Marcus connect to ICQ today and I can't. Last night, around 9 p.m., we both connected. Neither one of us changed settings. It doesn't make sense.

Fondue Fun

I don't know why I'm thinking this right now, but I really want a fondue pot.

Doggie Diarrhea Dilemma

Nothing like coming home from a crappy job to find that one of your dogs had diarrhea all over the carpet and the other dog walked through it and jumped up on the bed. Good thing I know the dog gets on the bed when we're away and keep the old comforter on top of the bed to protect the good comforter. What a mess! I knew something was wrong the minute I opened the door and was greeted with a strong dog poo smell. Steam cleaning carpets was not on top of my to-do list today.

I was not overly impressed with "That 80s Show" last night. Maybe after they develop the characters I'll be more interested, but at the moment, no.

This one driver at work sometimes wears this god-awful flowery perfume that always triggers an allery attack in me. I CAN'T BREATHE!!!

I found out last night that Marcus' parents are probably coming to visit us towards the end of March. This is going to be weird. They live in Tennessee and we haven't seen them in over five years. Geez, has it been that long? Anyway, they've never come here in the 9+ years that we've been together. They used to live here when his stepdad was stationed at Lowry.

ICQ Is Pissing Me Off

OK, I give up. I guess I'll have to go back to using AIM since ICQ is screwy. I've been reading the message boards at icq.com and I guess I'm not the only one having the same problem. Unfortunately, nobody seems to have a solution. Darn it, I really like ICQ's interface better than AIM. Oh, well, beggars can't be choosers, I guess.
