   Post something self-centered and vacuous that you might see on FB. We need the fun here.  I'll start.
   
   Just tried a new sugar-free Mojito-flavored powdered  mix. It does have the mint and lime taste. Not sure how I feel about the pale aqua color.

   I just washed my hair and can't decide if I want to wear it straight or do curls again with the mini flat iron. It takes more time than I have in the mornings to keep it up, though. I think I'll wear it straight, easier up-keep.

      I got tired of my hair in my face, and the salon I previously went to closed,  so I hacked it off with scissors myself.

       That is funny. My tiny dog loves to lay on piles of clothes when I do the laundry. He burrows in them to hide. When he got out and went in the kitchen for water, my bra strap was looped around his neck and he drug it along with him.

          I'm serious - try it.  I just had maybe a teaspoon of chopped jalepenos in a very small bowl, to steam them a bit (I do that all the time with onions, celery, etc.). The first time, I thought I was imaging it. You'd think they were sparklers.  I turned it off quickly, then I turned it on again - at a lower power setting. Pop! Spark! Flash! 
          
          I was afraid my microwave would blow up.
