I used to use hand sanitizer all the time then I read an article about a child would almost died from ingesting it, so I don't have it in the house any more with all the kids around here.

It is magic!<BR/><BR/>Ruvym, I see I've hit a nerve! Yeah, you're forced to encounter all types, some more gnarly than others. I particularly hate when people read their papers and swat you with their pages, or hit you with their bags. It's completely disrespectful.<BR/><BR/>Your nail guy sounds icky.Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13260829805068114560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-4988832631966554252008-02-21T13:14:00.000-05:002008-02-21T13:14:00.000-05:00I can't tell you how many times I've been whipped ...I can't tell you how many times I've been whipped by other people's hair or how many times I've tripped over awkwardly placed strollers. I can't tell you because it's happened THAT MANY times. Oh, a "fun" incident that occurred (one "r" or two? I never remember) a couple of weeks back. I was on the 4 or 5 downtown to Bowling Green and this older dude, well dressed, walks in and grabs the pole near my hand. I feel something scrap me. I look down and see he has ENORMOUS fingernails. Like women's length. Sure they looked relatively clean, but still, I was grossed out.Ruvymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18207933326556984972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-10942178012404921202008-02-21T12:53:00.000-05:002008-02-21T12:53:00.000-05:00Hey Kitty, touch wood I've managed to escape a col...Hey Kitty, touch wood I've managed to escape a cold, but I feel it's inevitable I'll succumb :-( Stay warm.fishwithoutbicyclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12071691302805126529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-70962680342936213622008-02-21T09:04:00.000-05:002008-02-21T09:04:00.000-05:00there have been some very nasty bugs over here thi...there have been some very nasty bugs over here this winter. Lots of people I know (including all my children) had this horrible flu thing with high temps and terrible headaches - it last for weeks and weeks. <BR/><BR/>We've not had proper snow here for nearly 2 years now. We had a smattering a few weeks ago (it lasted just a few hours) and a tiny bit at some point last Feb but not enough to sledge on since Feb 2006. <BR/><BR/>I never bother with hand sanitisers though - if I want to avoid germs I'd have to hide from my children! Sounds quite tempting actually!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-91598185849401189672008-02-21T08:59:00.000-05:002008-02-21T08:59:00.000-05:00The temperature extremes this winter are awful - a...The temperature extremes this winter are awful - at least if it would just stay really cold, we could get used to it after a time.<BR/><BR/>And germy subways, ugh... makes wearing surgical gloves seem like a good option!Spandrel Studioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05782425263902619415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222523593258151872.post-62303155174736089582008-02-21T07:20:00.000-05:002008-02-21T07:20:00.000-05:00Thanks Ha Ha doll!It's funny, we've had some extre...Thanks Ha Ha doll!<BR/>It's funny, we've had some extremely mild days, so you wouldn't think we'd want winter to be done with already.<BR/><BR/>Ugh on the flu. I had the worst cold I've ever had this season as well.

I really want it to end. I had the worst cold/flu of my life a few weeks ago, and the weather has just been unbearable.<BR/><BR/>That said, in a few weeks it should really start to get nice out. I can't wait for that.<BR/><BR/>Great pic, BTW.Ha Ha Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09545196323391055102noreply@blogger.com
