I put everything in the ground way too early because I had time, but managed to get them all covered the one night we had frost last week so they all made it. I just need to get my hose system set up so I can water more easily than previous years. Although I don't know what's easier than last year's super neglectful

I think it's called Orajel? It's numbing gel that is most frequently used for children teething, but I used it when I had my wisdom teeth coming in. Works pretty well. Numbs your tongue if you are overzealous in your application.

What kind of people do you work with that any food item left in the break room is not immediately consumed or taken? A coworker of mine once left a half eaten box of Metamucil crackers and an open bag of Friskies in ours and they were gone within half an hour.

Last season there was one ep where she had only one scene as Allison and I thought how annoyed the actress must be to have to come in for that. Then I remembered, she's literally always there.

I'm pretty sure I read that the veggie slicing detail was actually a real fact about the case that was based on. The sister claimed she did it all the time, so there was always a knife in the car, making it more of a crime of passion than a premeditated act. I went down a Wikipedia wormhole looking up the cases

I think I kind of blocked out how bad it was when lived in my apartment in an old building on the stuffy and hot top floor and the AC broke. I called my landlord and he sent someone out to fix it who came over in the afternoon and went in to fix it, but came out soon after and asked me for some lemonade, which was a

I'm @Jradd35. I pretty much exclusively tweet about Bachelor/Bachelorette, Pretty Little Liars, and other crap tv. Sometimes awards shows. I've had family members threaten to unfollow me during Bachelor premieres. Fair warning.

I love it when herbs come back. My sage finally got killed off, but the oregano and chives have been coming back for years.

My body essentially hates most drugs, so I've tried and failed at most of them. I am able to, and do take a zyrtec daily, but towards the end of the day the hives and itching creep back. I should give a neti pot a whirl though. I have one, just kind of nervous about it.

I made a recipe I found on pinterest a year or two ago that was for a caprese mac and cheese so it used fresh mozzarella and had basil and tomatoes in it and it was amazing. And fairly simple.

My ongoing one-sided battle with the gas company means I turn off the heater by April 1. And it doesn't go back on until November 1 if I can help it. So the heat is off even though it's kind of chilly here. Apologies to my dog. Good thing he's a snuggler and at daycare most of the day.

Could you nonchalantly lurk at lunch/happy hour type spots near where you both work to see if you see her again?

I was actively wishing for it to crap out the first year I lived there because the house was sold with a home warranty. I lived in such ignorant bliss. I miss that.

I feel your pain. Every year when the heat or AC comes on I think, is that the sound it made last year? That doesn't sound right. Then I cross my fingers that it lasts another season because I can't afford to replace it right now.

Allergies. My general non-interest in cutting the grass has turned aggressive. The dog is lucky if he gets to go on a quick jaunt around the block as I wheeze and sniffle behind him. I love the weather this time of year, I want so much to be outside and able to open my window, but the layer of lime green pollen that

I was having issues with mine too and googled it and found a reset sequence — tell him to do that. It helped a ton.

Mark! You love Gwar! Why don't you join the band?

The only time I'm a Cardinals fan is when I get to wear jeans and a Cards shirt for opening day or if they're in the playoffs.

The 1963 version of The Haunting, with Julie Harris and Russ Tamblyn. I'd read the book and seen the crappy 1999 version, and decided to watch this one with my sister and we were both terrified of it. It's so good.

I made a spinach salad with a roasted strawberry balsamic dressing for Easter. It was pretty good, and easy, though time consuming. But people ate the salad for the first time in a while, so it was successful at least.
