Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
the sausage curl stage..oy!
I love these. I have drooled over sausage curls since I was about seven and in love with Shirley Temple. And no, we are NOT contemporaries!
These were the ones [granny boots] with the b&w or brown& white rag socks sewn in. They weren't bad, I just remember them clearly.
I still have a pair of these. I don't wear them often, but every now and then....
Of course, I NEVER throw anything away. I'm bad that way.
Spiral perms. Sadly, even I succumbed to this. All grown/worn out by the time I was 14, though.
Aww, Perkins, it's never too early to miss LA.
I bet Lily misses LA, and she's never been there.
Everything is better with stripey tights.
Hell yes.
Man, I wish the recovery room had had a working Ethernet port. There was *nothing* on TV yesterday or this morning, and reading books and nursing are unmixy things. Stupid page turning need.

Ooh! Do you have one of those super-wide black elastic belts that were so popular in the late 80s? They were 6-9" wide, and usually had some sort of odd metal clasps in the front. I've been searching *ages* for one.
Plei!!!
I like Lily's initials, by the way.
Aww, Perkins, it's never too early to miss LA.
I was just going to say the same thing.
Stupid page turning need.
Man. That bites. Are all the nurses too busy to help out a new mother in need?

I miss those! I had a friend who had one that laced up the front, and was closer to a foot wide. It was so effin' cool.
Does Lily have stripey tights yet? Cause she should.

I remember those worn with HUGE enamelled buckles. Some cloisonne. One I remember in particular was a huge butterfly. It looked like you'd puncture organs if you bent over.

Oh, god. I had a mini with one of these attached, but it was a teeny skirt, and as soon as I was over a size 2, it no longer fit. But I kept it forever because I loved the belting so.
Perkins, of course you miss us. It's weird that you're not waiting until you've left, but still.
Does Lily have stripey tights yet? Cause she should.
Not yet, but she will when she's a little bigger.
Sigh. Must sign off--I booted the machine that's making weird sounds to post in Beep Me, and don't feel comfortable leaving it running until we figure out what's up with it.
Later, peeps.
