phew!

littleredhead gave us some perfume samplers she got from Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, and this evening eor and I started sniffing at them again. And of course we broke one of the little plastic lids. And when I went to superglue it back together the superglue had one of those dams built up inside, so I had to squeeze it and then it all came flooding out, and in the ensuing mess we stuck all our fingers together and used up all the nail polish remover, so I had to go out and get another bottle - the biggest one I could find. (Meanwhile that perfume sample remains open, because the cap is still not fixed... Eor's working on it...)

So now the place smells a bit like a French whorehouse on a slow weekday afternoon when the girls are all sitting around doing their nails. ;)

Phew redux

Why do they not say on the acetone bottle how to get rid of the stuff? I guess most people don't pour themselves a bowl full of the stuff. We've resorted to leaving it on the windowsill to evaporate.

You know you're REALLY contrary when you notice that the bottle says the acetone has something in it to make it taste bad and your first thought is, "I wonder how bad it tastes?" I managed to stop myself from tasting it, but it was a near thing. ;)
