The fates hear thoughts, too

As I prepped myself for attending MTT yesterday, I thought, Hm, the weather is finally nice. I wonder when the ants will show up. As I poured my morning cuppa milk today, I noticed two ants exploring the countertop. Oh dear. I turned and saw a disconcerting black mass pouring out from under the kitchen windowsill. Aigh! Ran to the basement to fetch the babykiller ant-spray and massacred the incoming horde. A bag of Terro is now on today's shopping list.

Decanting the night away

I ordered the April Fool perfume set ("Le Mat") from the Black Phoenix Trading Post and spent tonight decanting 5ml bottles into sample vials for a small group of folks from the sca_bpal community. I admit, I felt a little like a drug dealer with my labels and vials and pipettes all laid out across the coffee table. Hubbyfink just rolled his eyes at my little operation.

I had the weirdest reaction to one of the scents. So as not to color anybody else's interpretation I won't say which oil it is, but one smells just like a sushi restaurant on my skin. That is so bizarre and not entirely pleasant. I found only one of the three to be a must-have; I shall stalk the forum as people start trading away their samples which don't work on them just as I'll trade away the leftoves in the bottles which don't work on me.

No, seriously: sushi.
