I went and took a poop and as I was going to wipe there was BRIGHT RED on my toilet paper and in my poop.  I'm not quite sure what to make of this but if it keeps happening I'm deff going to the doc.

Refinishing a wood table  
I've recently acquired a small wooden side table through my local Freecycle and it's desperately in need of refinishing. I've read through the entries about low-vac stains and finishes so I'm all set on that front. In fact, I thought I'd offer a link to the Green Seal's Report on Wood Finishes and Stains (http://www.greenseal.org/resources/reports/CGR_wood_finish.pdf)

I'm wondering if there is a less noxious alternative to chemical strippers and paint removers? I've test sanded a few spots but didn't get very far doing that.

Eco Friendly Home Renovation  
Hi,
My husband and I just purchased a 1906 Victorian we are going to renovate. We are looking to salvage sinks for the kitchen and bathrooms and plan to install a new furnace, tankless hot water heat and dual flush toilets. We plan to improve as much of the house as we can and are only gutting the areas that are not usable (the kitchen and 2 bathrooms)

I am looking for other suggestions for green and healthy home improvement.

Cheese query  
I've been experimenting with a bit of home cheesemaking (did a weekend workshop, now hooked) and i was wondering whether any of you lovely natural living folk were a) also home cheesemakers and b) knowledgable in the location of some handy "help, my cheese is doing this. how do i save it?" kind of online resources.

I have five biodynamic milk camemberts maturing in my kitchen but 2 have pink slimey spots developing where a white skin should be. The other 3 are fine. I'm thinking cut it off and re-sanitise that container but do I brine it again? Are they unsalvageable and consigned to the compost?

It's always the wrong people that say the nicest things.
And I'm kicking myself for falling in love with you.
Because it can't even work, you're across seas. I'm being ridiculous.

Oh dear oh dear.

Lurker, posting.  
I wondered if you wonderful cat_macro people can, well, macro my 2 y/o cat. Her name is Dimona, like the desert town we found her in, and she only has one eye, although you can't really see it in this pic.
Under cut is a b&w photo of her being all happy about being squished, taken by [info]mahrjutka

 
Many thanks!

There is a torrent of words swirling around my mouth, tumbling over each over, jostling for space on my tongue, I can feel them being stuffed down my throat and burning in my lungs and crowding around my heart and killing me with all the secrets that they combine to make. I am choking on all the things I want and need to say to you, but can't - and won't.

(But if they lose their way - fall out of my mouth like loose teeth sometimes do - and expose me to the world, they'd be something like:    What the hell is going on?  ;  I am sorry I am sorry I am sorry I don't know how to be more  ;  I wish I could fix you but you're so lovely broken  ;  Help  ;  I love you)

So I wrote something weird.  
This is my first post here, I think. Just throwing that out there. Anyway, I have this bad habit of opening Word and typing whatever pops into my head; no planning whatsoever. I did that earlier today, and what became of it was a bit... well, special, for lack of a better word. Figured I'd share.

 I chased after you into the dark tunnel and out of the rain. My heart was erupting so loudly that I couldn't even hear myself as I screamed your name over and over and over. 

I saw the big, yellow sign in front of me and heard the puddles beneath my soaked feet. The floor was nowhere near as wet as my tear-covered face. Being the stubborn person I am, I ignored the warnings and kept running towards you. I didn't care, I had to get to you.

You turned around at the sound of the water splashing and the echo of my wail. You smirked -seeing me helpless and in pain- and walked away satisfied. So I lay on the frozen ground while my tears collided with the rain on the floor, my ankle shattered, along with my heart.

Red/Twenty/Stoke-on-Trent

It always seems ages since I've done an ADIML, but apparently I did one three weeks ago.
It's funny how much changes in a few weeks! At the moment I am down in Lancing, 
West Sussex for a week, staying at my parents house and chillaxing. 
At sixty-nine photos, this was my day of cats, cars, curries and... cider!

Monday 25th August 2008

 

let's get to it! )

I've done one two three other days :)

So...I'm ringing out customers at work, when all of a sudden I smell this strong smell of fish. I couldn't quite pinpoint where it was coming from but it was near me, and it smelled like that human-fishy-i-need-a-bath fish smell.

The gross thing is, and this makes me feel really disgusting, I was hungry after a couple seconds of smelling it.

Edit to add: I just took the biggest crap ever. I was sitting there for five minutes, knowing the results would be bad. One turd was hanging out and I had to wiggle to make it come out. The last little piece wouldn't come out, so when I went to wipe, there it was...hanging out, saying hello. The room smelled faintly of tar afterward, as well.
