do not use while prickly

December 14, 2004

against what one of my friend stubbornly believes, devils club is a real plant that grows in south central alaska with very thorny stalks and leaves. the thorns burrow their way through soft flesh like there is no tomorrow.

i bought some devils club massage oil from a vendor at the state fair who made it himself. it is great for relieving sore muscles and joints, plus it makes the dog want to eat you you smell so yummy.

i gave b a nice long back massage around 9pm last night with the devils club oil, during which he fell asleep on the couch. when i was finished i covered him with a blanket partly to keep him warm and partly to keep the dog from licking his back.

he was in the same place when i dropped the dog on him first thing this morning.

did i say dropped? i meant dropped.

as in, i was carrying her and leaned over the couch the place her in the crook of his warm knees before i went to work and dropped her. well, not so much dropped her as she freaked out and tried to jump and then i dropped her right onto his shoulder.

morning, honey.

That sounds wonderful, I've got to find some stuff like that.

a dog for me to drop on you before you wake? the oil you can get on the aurora essentials website i linked to - its the same stuff that i bought.
