I'm trying hard not to get sick, but it's only a matter of time with all the sick folks I'm around. My doc wants me to hold off until the first of November for my flu shot so that it will last the season.

Lauren - that is one of my pet peeves too. A radical extremist is a radical extremist is a radical extremist.

Slugs. And Rainforests. The rainforest is beautiful, but you can't walk through it without getting slug slime on your shoes. And slug slime is nasty stuff. Totally creeps me out.

I ordered some SJP stuff off eBay and the clothes were at least 2 sizes smaller than the stated size.... What she calls a 16 is a 12 at best.

Since my first attempt at posting didn't go over very well, I decided to lighten up a bit and ask this. If you could comfortably live in any state in the USA, which would you choose and why? I live in Washington State, and I love it. However, I would like to try living in a state that has 4 distinct seasons. My climate is fairly mild year round. I would love to see what it is like to be in a few feet of snow, or extremely hot weather, or have a fall where the leaves actually change colors. I am thinking New Hampshire or Connecticut?

I have a blackberry, and also had a treo and smartphone and pda. The blackberry is the easiest one to use and so far has been the most reliable. It is like having a little computer with me all the time. My partner is a doctor (I am a teacher), and this way we can keep in touch better than by just using a phone.
