do NOT try this at home, kids

We thought C had pink eye. Turns out he had a metal chip imbedded in his cornea. You see, sometimes when you're cutting the tops off fence posts and you don't wear safety goggles this can happen. Dr. JM let even let me have a look in the microscope and pointed out the circle of RUST that is still in C's eyeball. ewwwww. Doc says it should heal up with medicine and I sure hope so, b/c if not...he'll have to have it scraped off. double ewwwww.

Did you know that lipstick can go through the washer AND dryer and remain completely contained within the tube? At least with Clinique lipstick, I've found this to be true. The lipstick itself is ruined, but the clothes are clean and unblemished. However, I have NOT had similar luck with ballpoint pens. These tend to explode all over your clothes.

Your blogs are always helpful and full of wonderfully useless information. Thanks for providing a very much needed....not so much deserved study break! *Brooke*

I have found that when my chapstick, lipgloss, or lipstick gets dirty I can just scrape off the dirt with my fingernail and then wipe my fingers on my jeans and then wash the jeans and it comes right off... then my clothes and my lip stuff are still wearable! just a hint
