MAN MAN!

Yesterday I bought a neti pot. It is helping.

I used my few snot-free hours to attend MAN MAN!
Doors opened later than I though so I popped over to The PS Lounge and had a long conversation over a Hot Toddy with Pete and Christina. Pete's gotten a lot mumbly in his dottage. I think he was wearing his pajamas. I guess mobsters, like in the Godfather, get more difficult to understand as they age.

I was sitting behind the sound booth at the Bluebird playing Angry Birds when a guy came up and said, "What version is that? I don't have that one!"
"It's the Holiday version."
We swap phones. The iphone's screen is not nearly as good as my tiny phone's, but the pigs are bigger.
We talk about music and he wants to go to Cake but it's sold out. I offer to take him, explaining that I have extra tickets for both days.

Man Man was awesome. Butterbeans had a costume change AND a drum solo. Heaven.

If you a have a Furby you aren't using, can I have it please?

I don't use the neti pot, I use the squeeze bottle instead. Butts~! Nasal rinses have improved my health immensely!

Please tell me you are going to do some sort of complicated operation on the Furby.

We'll see if it gets here.

Some dude at herbs and arts told me if you put pee in our neti pot then use that it clears sinus issues RIGHT up.

I'm for sure never going to do that, however I thought I'd throw it out there in case you would.

Exactly. That means someone somewhere was so desperate, curious or deluded that they decided to pee up their own nose. And somehow that worked. o.O

They just said it worked when someone caught them pouring their own pee in their nose.

You know, there's a whole yoga subculture out there that...I don't even want to learn about.

"Filled the Neti pot close to 70% with urine. Started doing Neti on the first nostril. OMG. THIS WAS SO DISGUSTING. The smell, very little taste. There is no way I could describe how disgusting the feeling was. The thought of it right now gives me a feeling to puke. Finished half of the urine so and stopped so I could do the other nostril. Pushed out all urine out of noth nostril by exhaling. The smell was killing me. My god the thought of it right now while describing this is so disgusting. I am thinking about the smeel and the taste. Started doing it on the other nostril. MUCH MORE DISGUSTING. I was so determined that no matter what I am going to complete the pot; but then I felt NO WAY, I CAN"T do this. I did complete most of it; but finally STOPPED. CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!! Exhaled all urine out of both nostrils which was again smelly and taste was killing me."

I have several furbies, PLUS the jedi-training yoda based on the furby platform. They're in a box.... somewhere.

Well if you ever figure out where they are....

if you pee on the furby I'm calling the cops.
that's just wrong.

I *think* I might have a furby somewhere? I'll look when I clean house.
