There isn't a doubt in my mind that she knows exactly what I refer to . . . 

Actually, I don't.

That is reality.

"Reality" is mostly a figment of human imagination. What it refers to is shared delusions that are fostered by ideological dogma, so an "alternate reality" is merely a competing "reality", and if there's one thing that an ideology hates, it's competition.

Well thank-you, Dr. Phil and Merriam-Webster!

Let me be clear . . . MY reality . . . OR . . . if you prefer: My actuality, MY realism, MY observation, MY experience . . . MY truth.

My "reality" does not compete; nor is it rigid or inflexible.

However, it is not swayed by unsupported, emotional or opinionated bullshit, from others.

Far easier said than done, in a world in which bullshit is common currency.

And by the way, I wasn't implying that you live in a "reality". I didn't know what your thoughts are on reality in general. Now I do, I guess.

Blue whales can reach to 188 decibels while a jet reaches 140 decibels, making it the loudest animal on earth.

If a blue whale is 188 decibels then a rothschild must be well over 200.

Noise pollution?


I wouldn't mind being a whale if the oceans weren't so fucked up. A Narwhal, perhaps.

In the ocean I would like to be a Disney sea turtle.

In the mountains I'd like to be a moose.

Here at home, I'm Batman.

Maybe 30. I have way more in December/January because that's when the biggest sales are and I try to stock up for the year. I wouldn't pay full price for the candles I like, I'm a tightwad.

My husband says Im poisoning him with my candles and I really don’t give a fuck, but since he bitches about it all the time I have been simmering natural ingredients on the stovetop so he will stfu. I did a mixture of cinnamon, almond and vanilla extract and cloves and it does smell really good. I’m going to do rosemary and lemon next.

Cinnamon Clove Buds at Bath & Body Works is one of my favorites and their Merry Cookie is the nicest vanilla I've ever smelled.

Could the candles be poisoning us?

I had to get a plumber to replace the water supply line in the guest bathroom and I guess the stovetop potpourri does really work because he commented that my house smells like a cinnamon bun.
