Question for all: Do you have a junk drawer in your house?

My wife was watching some show on HGTV last night when a woman said she didn't like clutter and did not have a junk drawer. It got me wondering if having a junk drawer(s) is indicative of your level of clutter tolerance.

btw, we have several junk drawers. :eek:

Oh good Lord! We have three junk drawers. The one in the kitchen being the junkiest. Where else would you keep recipes clipped from magazines if not in a junk drawer? ;)

Guess you'll just have to make another batch of cakes or use those eleven dozen eggs you colored for the holiday for a giant bowl of egg salad.

What's with all the interest in cosmetic surgery these days? Last night I was poking around the television, looking at the program guide and such, and I kept noticing programs about plastic surgery. Is plastic surgery so popular, affordable, or both that it has entered the mainstream? I thought that elective plastic surgery was only for narcissistic starlets who couldn't handle the fact that their bodies might actually age? What's your view on cosmetic surgery?

I have one junk drawer in the kitchen, it mostly has my puppy stuff in it ~ stuff meaning chew bones, nail clippers, leash, ect...

The garage is just a mess, but nothing a little elbow grease wouldn't fix. My two spare bedrooms...those are a story entirely unto themselves! One is my "office" the other is...well, you can imagine :eek:

It has become much more affordable in recent years. I used to be anti-cosmetic surgery but, more recently I am considering a few things...not necessarily to prevent the aging process though.
 
I just read a post in which someone suggested that steroid use among athletes was comparable to cosmetic surgery done strictly for elective, narcissistic purposes. I'm tempted to agree. Do you?

Did you watch "Dr. 90210"? Lotsa boob jobs going on there. I think women, and men, have been brainwashed into thinking that they need to be "repaired" in order to be beautiful. And I don't think it comes cheap either. One husband on that show took out a second mortgage on their house so his wife could get a whole laundry list of things done.

Whenever I hear about plastic surgery, I always think of Joan Rivers and now, Kenny Rogers. Or the King of Pop. Yikes.

The sense that I'm getting is that familiarity due to the abundance of TV coverage and entertainment shows on the subject is contributing to an increased acceptance of cosmetic surgery as being just a somewhat extreme version of applying makeup or dressing to your best advantage. We have a very competitive culture in this country and sometimes I think that it's easy to go too far in trying to be "the best that you can be."

Maybe a few more people should eat less, exercise more, and accept the fact that you can't be 23 forever.

But that's too hard! ;)

The idea of anesthesia scares the daylights out of me, so I won't be signing up any time soon.

I think that anesthesia is, in fact, intended to take the daylight out of you. ;)
