Thus are my misdeeds: - I love the AFLAC duck. - I actually find the singing bellybutton commercials a bit of a turn-on. - I don’t floss. And yet the natural spacing of my teeth lets my brush do a decent job of cleaning. When I visit the hygienist, she compliments me on my flossing. I take credit (hangs head). - I don’t always rinse the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. ---

I don’t floss either, and I’m deeply ashamed. If you dishwasher cleans unrinsed dishes, why waste the water? Just because some of us have crappy, cheap dishwashers that aren’t worth the food scraps they recirculate… > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Shirley Ujest \* > **I chose my wine by price rather than the pretentiousness of label.** Do you buy the stuff that comes in a box? Nothing like a box o’ wine to add a touch of class to any festive gathering! ---

Speaking of wine…I just love Boonesfarm… Specifically…Snow Creek Berry. That $2 bottle is far superior to $50/bottle grape squeezins. It truly is Nectar of the Gods. ---

I didn’t tell my father I was going to Texas this weekend. He found out by accident when he read my mother’s email. I haven’t told my parents I’m engaged. I don’t intend to tell them until we set a date and start the actual planning. ---

I still have a book I checked out in junior high stashed away somewhere. I figure I owe several hundred dollers in late fees for it. I watch Blind Date whenever I think of it and get the chance. ---
