Set Up My Bath, Please?

Tue, 09 Mar 2010 18:32:31 -0700

1. Run water until it's hotter than *you'd* like it. Since this is a soak in the tube, it needs to be way way hotter than Rain'd like it.

2. Inflate the bath pillow 3/4s full and attach to the wall opposite the faucet. The pillow should rest over the point where the wall and the bath meet.

3. Add around a teaspoon of Monoi Miracle Oil to the bath via the running water. Add three drops of Divine Calm Essential Oil to the bath via the running water. Add around a cup of bath salts (either the orange or the white, not both) to the bath. Stir the bath.

4. Put the stool between the toilet and the tub, place a bath towel and Rain's reading material on the stool.

5. Place candles along the window sill, back of the toilet, sink, and corner of the tub near the faucet. Light all the candles.

6. Put the following products in the corners of the tub near the bath pillow: Origins Clear Improvement Active charcoal mask to clear pores, Pure Detox Clarifying Clay Mask, Peppermint Smooching Pumice Foot Scrub, Spa Wisdom Africa Spa Salt Scrub, Yes to Carrots C the Body Carrot Rich Moisturizing Body Scrub, pair of white exfoliation gloves, pumice stone (small white rectangle thing).

7. Plug in and turn on the small heater.

8. Tell Rain it's time for her bath. Ask if she needs anything else.

Vague Statements

Mon, 15 Feb 2010 22:36:27 -0700

We're having a family emergency over here. I'm not at liberty to divulge the details.

But I need my outlet.

So I'm going to be making vague statements over the next couple of weeks, months, maybe years.

And they may be really hard for me to say. Maybe really hard for you to hear.

But I'm going to say them anyway.

And I'm not going to reply to questions. Or say more than I need to. Or reply to questions.

So don't ask.

No matter what I say.

Vaguely.

Surfing

No. I never stood up. But I did nose dive twice. And damn, I have style when I'm touching sand.

After all that, I'm spending my holiday on a quiet beach. With plenty of sun, waves, and sunscreen. It's a hard life.
