Two things:

* Do not try the new "T*ums Lasting Effects" They taste horrible. Not only that they fizz in your mouth as they dissolve. So then you get horrible taste with a foamy metallic aftertaste. And to top it off I don't think they last longer than T*ums Ultra anyway. I still get heartburn at four o'clock in the morning with either.

* Do not give your husband a Nok Hockey board for Christmas and then let him store it in the bedroom. He will pull it out at inopportune times and beg you to play with him. "Gee, sorry honey I'm just not up for a game at midnight after I have just slathered myself with anti-rash cream." Precious.
