I wear winter thermal socks all year because I like the way they feel on my feet

Which language?

About every 2 years or so I buy batches of old issues from the publisher, Variety.  Much cheaper that way.

I too, like to do crossword puzzles (in my own language) but I like to complete sudokus also. They're both in my daily newspaper.

I have many vices.  And I let Eris borrow them sometimes. :zoinks:

Whilst showering for a while I usually spread the little sebum(?)/skin fat of the fatty parts of my face's skin (nose and forehead) with the warm water of the shower over the rest of my face gently. Skin likes this and apart from really dry Winter days maybe I hardly have to use some stinking/fake/irritating moisturising stuff one could buy in some store.

Well..

My skin turns bright red when I get plaster dust on it

 My right eye is set a millimeter or so higher in my face than my left eye, and at a slightly different angle.  :insane:

Wasn't there a cigarette that advertised it was a silly little millimete longer?

 That's vaguely familiar to me now that you mention it.  I wonder how many extra puffs you get from that!   :orly:

I started college at the age of 2.  My Dad was taking German as his foreign language.  It was only offered at the female college.  Mom wasn't happy that he would be taking it with coeds.  So, since she was pregnant with my sister, she would pretend to be sick sometimes when he had German classes so he would have to take me.  She wanted to make sure the female students knew he was married with child(ren.)
