Did you
see what you people
did?
Today, I went to look at blogs, and guess what I saw when I clicked the "best" tab!?!
I am learning more humility here than I ever expected to learn in this lifetime.
THANK YOU!
Those last ones really need to be hosed off so bad I was fully expecting someone might enter them into a typo competition, but "best" blog?
Now I feel obliged to try to think of something at least slightly coherent for the next blogrant, and this so isn't, so I'll just post it here:
In Which I Am Wonder-Struck by a Galluptious Galleon of Stupendous Surprises, and Compelled to Promote Myself Forthwith to the Advanced Class, Immediately Bubble Over With Eager Questions
(Advisory for the tldr community: Scroll down NOW)
Backstory: No, no, not all the way back to the beginning, just to a quick "previously on..." for latecomers.
In the wake of the now-legendary generosity of my ECF benefactors (we can be sure that future generations will gaze reverently upon marble likenesses of their heads on the most venerable of newel-posts) it was discovered that a longtime occasional colleague had, during the last couple of years since we'd communicated, made the transition to e-cigarettes, and her husband kindly offered to send me some cartomizers AND juice in flavors that she, a menthol smoker, didn't like.
Thank You, Hoosier! And
WOW!
ECF Superstar Hoosier, a very talented felt battery and e-cigarette
juice artist, had generously offered to share with me some Cuban Cigar
juice that he designed, but then mischievously sent me a
whole bouquet of captivating confections!
Upon learning of the efforts my colleague and I were making, another "old co-contractor" was so pleased, that after covertly consulting with our respective spouses, she sent each of us a dazzling array of
Everything We'd Ever Dreamed Of!
After numerous attempts to express the immensity and intensity of my gratitude, each one a more epic FAIL than the last, it has been incontrovertibly established that this is such a rhetorical impossibility that I might as well offer an uncharacteristic homage to my tldr brothers and sisters and simply say "I am very grateful."
As it is equally long and incontrovertibly established that the mathematical system best suited to my particular cerebral configuration consists of "
ONE, TWO, MANY," I can only say that thanks to PKZap27, Hoosier, and my erstwhile colleagues, I now have waaay more flavors of juice than I'm able to count, several times over, and while not at all sure that I'm "ready," I simply cannot bear to wait any longer to move up to the Advanced Class!
I've dutifully watched the videos, but there are still some things that are not quite clear, so without further ado, and as so previously and often-threatened, herewith are the
QUESTIONS
(tldr people begin reading here)
1) Can the "condom method" be used to fill blank cartomizers as well as to refill ones that came flavored but have been spent?
2) Some videos say condom-filled cartomizers may be used immediately. Others say let them rest overnight first.
2.1) Who's right?
2.2) If they must rest, should they rest mouth-sittin' end up, or other end up, or on their sides?
3) If I have a flavor in a high number of nicotine, and I'd like to dilute it in order to try it with less nicotine, can I do this without reducing the flavor, and if so:
3.1) Is it best to dilute it with:
a) water?
b) Lemon Perrier?
c) tequila?
d) guaro?
3.11 How much?
(tldr people
would be well advised to can stop reading here)

I am, as you're aware, epically behind on absolutely everything - here, there, and everywhere.
After careful analysis, I have determined that all this escalated behindedness is the fault of Puffing Practice, which, it turns out, is equivalent to roughly 2.73 full time jobs when measured in physical and mental resource requirements and tiredness production.
For that reason, I hope you will forgive this even more haphazard and random than usual substitute for replies, since thread-reading behindedness has now soared into the double-digits.
MustangSallie,
Wolfstar, is right, as usual. All the bunk beds are very comfortably equipped with squishy microplush blankets and colorful Jaipur quilts, all the pillows are made of fine and extra-bouncy latex from sunny Brazil, guaranteed 100% sneeze-free, and all the animals are Real, in full compliance with the Velveteen Rabbit Absolute, as are the Barbies and Bratz, of which there are always plenty for everyone. Just look in the big box by the window seat.
Revolver, those rumors are directly traceable back to one small kerfluffle during a trip frosty, exotic Lapland years ago, and yes, the Bratz community is noted for being mischievous, but Jade has long since apologized to Tropical Miko for getting a little carried away, and in fact
gave her a pair of the very same gold kitten heels that started the whole silly business, and the hippopotamus pillow loves giving both Barbies and Bratz rides, and all are the best of friends.
Leaving ancient history and returning to the present:
Nova Sphere, you will be especially pleased to hear that The Reformed GI Joe Drag Posse reports that the new runway will be ready by this weekend, and though they won't let anyone peek till it's all done, I have it on very good authority from an old and dear friend of yours (who is absolutely stunning in the violet, btw) that it will be even pinker and sparklier than anticipated.
Katmandu has already discovered this, but for the benefit of any other new adoptees who might be unaware, cocoa is always available from the large Enchanted Plush Elephant by the Dream Garage. It's especially fond of being petted, and because it's Enchanted, already knows if you prefer whipped cream or tiny marshmallows.
Del Boy, I'm way too looped out to time things, but I know it will be longer once I get the right nicotine amount and puffing skills to remove the cough factor, because it's the coughing that makes me tired.
But I always remember something you said, that was even more encouraging than you knew it would be, about every half hour I practiced was 1 cigarette less, and I told you no, every half hour means
several cigarettes less!
jtpjc, do you know I go and watch
your videos and just sit there and laugh till my face hurts!
I'm going to email Queen Bea and demand to know why she has not yet declared you a Hollandaise National Treasure, because you sure are an Earth one!
