Dilettante's Diary: the internal dialogue of a hedonist bluestocking.
I am a dilettante. I know quite a bit about a lot of things, but I don't know enough to be an expert on anything. I have a very sensual, hedonistic nature, but I am also a thinker, and I aim one day to be worthy of the label 'bluestocking', despite its pejorative connotations.

I made the mistake of testing a new line of bath and body products called "The Thymes". I rubbed a little of the "Mandarin Coriander" lotion into my hands, which promptly swelled up. I needed to get my ring off asap, so I licked my finger and worked it off. At which point my lips and eyes swelled up. 2 hours later I was covered from head to toes in hives. I even had them on the bottoms of my feet! My hands swelled so badly I had to have Stephanie rub cortisone cream into them because my fingers wouldn't bend, and rubbing my hands over each other caused serious pain. I spent three days looking like a woman whose face-lift and collagen injections on her lips went haywaire. Today, I am peeling. Yes, Kelly looks like a molting lizard.
