You know that moment when you’re reading a book and you just have to stop and bite your lip and squeal or sigh or close your eyes and wrinkle your nose and forehead and press the book against your heart and just like sit there and try to soak up the gorgeous literature via osmosis?
That’s my favorite part of reading.

One Vicks to rule them all, one Vicks to find...
*talking about Doctor Who*
Mutt: . . . another change of topic. I have just discovered tissues that smell like Vick's Vapor Rub. Best thing for allergies ever? I think so.
Me: really? vicks was half my childhood. the other half was barney and grass stains on my knees.
Mutt: I love your childhood. mine was Narnia, dolls, and crowns made of leaves. Not to dis Barney. He was my favorite for the first couple of years.
Me: i love YOUR childhood. and if we conjoined childhoods we'd have the best childhood ever.
Mutt: Yes we would. With Vicks ruling all.
Me: [Barney] was mine, too. but you gotta admit, there is something slightly creepy about a giant purple dinosor. Dinosaur? I CAN'T SPELL NO MOAR.
Mutt: It's dinosaur. And yes, there is.
Me: yesssss (in my head, I sound like gollum)
Mutt: My preeeessssciouss. Now I'm imagining LOTR with Vicks as the ring. LOTV? Lord of the Vicks?
Me: YES. MUTT. WHAT HAVE WE DONE. NOW I'M IMAGINING THE FELLOWSHIP WITH STUFFY NOSES.
Mutt: The vapors enter the head of the bearer and pollute his mind, making him open to the evil influence of the dark lord. However, it's incredible properties against the common cold make it desired by those who hope to use it for good, thinking they are strong enough to stand against Lord Vick. Only a few realize the true danger, and resolve to destroy the jar, no matter what the cost.
Me: mutt. you. are brilliant. the end.
Mutt: Boromir only wanted to cure Gondor of it's allergies!
Me: And Galadriel has suffered from a cold for so long--of course she'd be tempted to use the jar's restorative powers!
Mutt: Haha. I think that may be MLIA material.
Me: yep. it just may be. ^_^
Mutt: Of course! And Faramir's decision not to bring the jar to Gondor infuriated Denethor because he suffered from severe congestion.
Mutt: The Ents didn't want to get involved because they don't have sinuses.
Me: Sauron with severe nasal allergies! (because he has no nose)
Mutt: Only an eye. Oh dear. That's just gross. The eye isn't fiery--it's inflamed and swollen!
Me: pink eye! he has pink eye! eeeew.
Mutt: Hahaha! Eeeeeewwww! Haha. Gross!
Me: . . . and Sarumon's only in it for the cough drops.
Mutt: Hahaha! Of course he is! He got a taste of that throat-numbing sensation and the power went straight to his head.
Me: he must have ALL the cough drops!
Mutt: Then he will dispense them at will and control the world through manipulation! "Vicks power to control colds is sweeping the world. We cannot stop it--we must join it!"
Me: then wait. Wouldn't that make sauron the good guy? NO WAIT. he's the big business tycoon trying to take over all the little businesses. so it's really a union, not a fellowship. WHAT HAVE WE DONE?
Mutt: Exactly! You see, Vicks not only fights colds and allergies, but opens the mind to his evil influence. It's like mind control. Through the sinuses.
Me: the ultimate olfactory control.
Mutt: Now I'm sitting here sniffling into my tissues and grinning like a villain.
Me: me too! Well, glaring at the computer and grinning like a villain. but whatever. technicalities.
Mutt: Nuanse. Nuance? Nuance. Ahhh spelling!
Me: Rapunzel.
Me: Gesundheit.
Mutt: Oh my gosh! What HAVE we done, madis?!
Me: Created a monster! We shall name him Steve.
Mutt: We shall call him Steve, and he shall be ours, and he shall be our Steve.
Me: Ow! Bad Steve!
Mutt: This is why we'll be awesome roommates. If we sleep. Which we will.
Me: Right. Sleep. That concept we've heard so much about. To sleep. To dream. To sleep perchance to dream. etc. etc.
Mutt: Etc, etc. Rings a bell, yes. ;)

My little brother got into outer space and stuff so my step-mom bought him a place mat with all the planets on it. When I first saw it, I was upset, because it was newer and so Pluto wasn’t labeled. I was about to say something when I noticed something…
Pluto is there.
The artist remembered Pluto.
Guys…
The artist drew Pluto crying.
