Depends who is licking the cream off them?
Posted by: wolfie | April 27, 2006 at 02:18 PM
Yes, I agree. A mamelon being handled by an inexperienced licker is a terrible, terrible waste. The cream would be better off used on cherries instead.
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | April 27, 2006 at 02:23 PM

i just cut my thumb, about 1/2" from the tip all the way across, froom nail to naiul. it's kinda deep. do i need stitches do you think?
Posted by: Sarah J | April 27, 2006 at 04:09 PM
Sarah, I'm no doctor, so this is just fyi. I cut the inside of my thumb on a can when I was a kid, and it was pretty deep, but I didn't get stitches, and I have a scar now.
even so, if it happened again, I still wouldn't get stitches.
but that's just me, and that probably didn't help you at all, did it? :)
*hands Sarah a butterfly band-aid*
Posted by: southerngirl | April 27, 2006 at 04:40 PM
I got 5 stitches in my thumb on my right hand which is making it hard to type because I hit space with it. Also will impede the moving/packing/cleaning and I will have to recruit a sea critter to help (she better if she wants a ride to the grocer's!!)
Posted by: Sarah J | April 27, 2006 at 05:16 PM
5 stitches!!! Wow, and you weren't sure whether to go see a doctor! Ouch.
How come things like that always happen when you need your thumbs the most?
Tell your sea star to get the heck over there!

Posted by: KDF | April 27, 2006 at 05:22 PM
Meanie--no problem. I wouldn't start punning without you.
Yay!! Fellow looney-tooners! I've been considering getting another tattoo--Daffy with his bill all akimbo from the "Wabbit Season" episodes.
Sarah--glad you're okay. Wow...five stitches! I'm impressed.
Hey, KDF, I got a fresh six-pack of cider if you want one later.
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 27, 2006 at 05:42 PM
Sharon, how many tattoos do you already have? And where?
And yes, please, I'd love a cider later. :)
Posted by: KDF | April 27, 2006 at 05:45 PM
Actually, I have four...and I'll tell you about two. :) I have a black silhouette of a wolf howling at the moon on the back of my right shoulder, and I have a southwest-style lizard on the small of my back somewhat left of center.
The other two...well...I tell people that those must be left to the imagination.
Or found by independent research. It all depends.
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 27, 2006 at 05:50 PM
Sass and tattoos to match the boots! :)
I'm curious because I would have a tattoo by now if I weren't such a wimp. Those dang needles scare me. Which doesn't make a lot of sense, since I've had three babies (two without meds,) and felt like Superwoman after the med-less ones. You'd think I could handle a little needle.
Posted by: KDF | April 27, 2006 at 06:23 PM
*still snorking at "independent research"*

You do know that Wolfie's going to be alllllll over you because of the wolf tattoo, don't you?
I took a long nap, maybe two hours or so. I only woke up when Giant Frog unceremoniously tugged at my foot when he came home and opened the door so the light was on my face.

Wow, very cool. Any pictures you could share?
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | April 27, 2006 at 06:43 PM
KDF, please don't think you're a wimp for being afraid of needles. Phobias are annoyingly selective... you're just scared of them and that's that. Everyone has one, and you're no less of a supermommy because of it. *hug*
Personally, what scares the crap out of me is hot cooking oil. I just can't fry any food. I'm petrified of it since I burned my hand with it once, ages ago, right where my fingers join my palm (not the knuckles, but the webbing between the fingers themselves). Hurt like hell for quite a while, I'll tell you that. Now I leave all the frying to my Giant Frog.
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | April 27, 2006 at 06:44 PM
Sharon, have we not demonstrated sufficiently what happens when someone leaves things to our imaginations?
*Decides to check out this "discretion" thing and leave KDF's needle line unaddressed*
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | April 27, 2006 at 06:47 PM
Greg Iles tells me, as he waaslk by and I'm, you know, just passing the time of day with Dave, that Dave has tattoo envy after seeing the ones of mine that were visible.
I said, he hasn't even seen them all.
Dave said something like, um, if they're covered, let's not.
I said - Amy can tell you later.
Posted by: ASK | April 27, 2006 at 06:49 PM
Jeff--Yes. I do.
:P
KDF--If it's the needles rather than the pain you're worried about, you shouldn't. I mean, tattoos do hurt a bit (NOTHING like labor, of course), but the...er...instrument of torture doesn't actually look like a needle. It looks more like a cool, techno-pen. In fact, my mother and I went and got tattooed together for my first one (my mom is SO cool), and she insisted on going first. She said that if it hurt too much, she wouldn't let me do it. (Please note that I was TWENTY-TWO at that time!). Anyway, my mom--who didn't get her ears pierced until she was forty because she was afraid of the pain--figured that a tattoo was no big deal and "let" me get it.
I did wonder if I was setting myself up for attack by admitting to the wolf tattoo, but since the wolf is basically my "familiar," I figure it will protect me.
Not that I really need protection from wolfie or anything, but still...
My phobia? Sharks. I can't even look at a picture of one without breaking into a cold sweat.
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 27, 2006 at 06:52 PM
wolfie, walking funny can also remind you that you had a really good time too!
oops, did I just say that out loud?
*chortle*
Posted by: Eleanor | April 27, 2006 at 06:58 PM
Apparently not, Blue. When, oh when will I learn my lesson??
Wow, ASK that's, erm, interesting spelling...you typing and blogging at the same time again? :P
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 27, 2006 at 07:00 PM
Apparently Blue was not so inclined to respond to my suggestive wiggle.
*sighs*
I guess I have to take care of it myself.
*stands.. places foot flat on desk*
*ties left shoelace*
What did you all think I was wiggling for him?Hmmm?
SSA ~ I have my tattoo all picked out. Probably much like yours. Now if only I wasn't scared to death of needles. I have that one picked out plus an anklett. If only they would let me pick it out and sign all the crap and then go get plowed. Saki was involved in the whole piercing incident. But the tattoo artist I want to do mine won't lemme be drunk. He doesn't realize how bad it'll be if I scream and pass out. Or scream n puke. Either reaction is likely.
Posted by: wolfie | April 27, 2006 at 07:01 PM
wolfie, it's really not that bad. Trust me. My tattoo artist told me that she's NEVER had a woman pass out in the chair. But the guy...? Different story.
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 27, 2006 at 07:04 PM
Whoops! I meant to say "guys."
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 27, 2006 at 07:06 PM
I love the way ASK just casually drops into the conversation that I'm, you know, just passing the time of day with Dave
that was just wrong. *glares at ASK*
and I'm pretty sure most reputable tattoo artists won't "needle you" if you're wasted.
well, maybe they'll needle you, but they won't tattoo you. ;)
Posted by: southerngirl | April 27, 2006 at 07:11 PM
The red cross people almost didn't let me give blood cause I looked so bad and almost passed out when they got out the needle.
*snork*
I'm fine with paddles n whips but please don't bring a needle too close. It's kinda sad really.
But I did get extra cookies and a whole bottle of o.j. from the red cross people. Yes, I was (ever so slightly) dramatic for the goodies afterwards.
Posted by: wolfie | April 27, 2006 at 07:12 PM
Sharon, is tattooing one of those things that hurts the whole time they're at it, or it just hurts at first and then your body gives in and doesn't register the pain anymore? You know, like waxing?
*suggests to Blue that "little needle" might be best left alone*
Posted by: KDF | April 27, 2006 at 07:16 PM
Depends on where you get it, KDF. Tattooing over a bony area (stop it, Blue!!), like an ankle, tends to hurt throughout because there are more nerves closer to the surface. Fleshy areas (I SAID KNOCK IT OFF, BLUE!) are kind of painful when they first start but then it fades as they continue.
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 27, 2006 at 07:20 PM
I object to the waxing analogy. I have the most sensitive skin in the world, and waxing hurts like hell all the way through. My skin stays a lovely lobster-like hue for the rest of the day.
I guess it depends on your skin. *sigh*

*accepting suggestions for fleshy tattooable areas as well as themes*

Wicked!

*shudders* Rrrrrrrriiiip. *shudders again*
If I ever do get a tattoo - which is highly unlikely - it will probably be something schmoopy and sappy. I like the idea of tattooing the name of my own true love on my skin, but, being a child of divorce, I know this isn't the greatest idea ever and will never do it.
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | April 27, 2006 at 07:43 PM
The guys must love that, Sharon. *snork*
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | April 27, 2006 at 07:44 PM
Aubrey Beardsley's Salomé (the work in question is called "The Climax").
One of Gustave Moreau's many Salomés ("The Apparition").
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | April 27, 2006 at 07:47 PM
Wolfie, I may have been in too much haste when I wrote it, as I was packing up to leave work, but I did take you up on your offer. The lube stuff was what needed washing out of my hair. I do tie things, but not usually shoelaces.
Bootlaces, on the other hand......
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | April 27, 2006 at 07:55 PM
No laces on these boots, Blue--but you feel free to tie one on.
*hands Blue a beer*
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 27, 2006 at 08:02 PM
Sharks. I can't even look at a picture of one without breaking into a cold sweat.
So, one day while scuba diving, I swam up over a barrel reef and came face to fin with a (DUM DUM DUMMMMMMM) shark.
It's very hard to scream with a regulator in your mouth, but I managed. I also did a very agile-like flip and scurried back from whence I came, dragging my very surprised diving partner with me.
And no tattoos here. Ever. {{shudder}} Besides, one day (different day from the diving story) I was sitting with some friends at an outdoor cafe, and A LOT of tattooed people passed by. I projected into the future, and there are going to be some really faded wrinkly tats in a few years. I have a friend who had a 5 inch long keltic thingie on her ankle. A couple of years ago, she had to have surgery on her ankle.
That was ugly.

Blue? Should I mention I was wearing hiking boots? And still, not tieing action. What exactly were you looking at down there?
Never tattoo anyone's name on your body. The only exceptions... your mothers name, and your childrens names. Those are the only ones that will never change.
I'd like to thank you all btw. I had to stop at the grocery today after work. As I sauntered blithely into the produce section (hugely unaware of what was about to transpire) I was struck by a huuuge mound o'melons. Yes real ones. And I got the giggles. Upon realizing that I was having 'issues' with them I turned around and was confronted with a display of... passionfruit. And kumquats. Oh yes.. let us not forget the cherries that d@mn near made me wet myself. And I think there was something labeled with the tag 'horned' but as I was having a hard time reading the labels with tears in my eyes, I can't be sure. I'd like to thank you all for making me an honored member of my grocers 'To be watched' wall of fame. They think I'm insane. I am now looking for a new grocery store.
Until then, would one of you kindly do my shopping because I seriously cannot show my face in there ever again.

I know that feeling of wanting to write all the details down before they evaporate, so do that for yourself. But if you can't focus and you feel like you're forgetting... hm, sounds like lack of sleep.
