I like the first one better, Aimee.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

It's a very cute border, Aimee. (ETA--I like the first one better.)

Random room decor story from my childhood: When I was 6 or so, I was the only kid left at home, so they decided to move me from the small bedroom I'd had since infancy into a larger one once belonging to one of my brothers. Mom said I could pick the color of carpet, and I said "RED!" because it was eternally my favorite color.

I didn't get my way. She'd only "let" me pick because she was so sure I'd choose green, so I could pretend it was grass for my toy horses. Mind you, I still don't see what would've been so horrible about red carpet. They could've brought home a nice tasteful burgundy shade, and I wouldn't have complained.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I really like the Paris border, Aimee. And good on you for joining a gym again!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Agreeing with everyone else on the Paris border.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I like poodle better than princess. In those particular borders, anyway.

When I was 6 or 7 we redecorated our whole house. My sister and I picked out a red bandanna print for our carpet. My brother had a really great yellow carpet with prints of all kinds of games on it - checkers and backgammon and what have you - that you could use to play on the floor if you had a mind to. 6 months later my dad was transferred. We never did a thing to decorate the new house, it had white walls and the carpeting it came with until we moved out.

Aimee! I was watching one of those "entertainment" shows last night and they had pictures of the premier of "Sahara". Penelope Cruz arrived with a CAMEL. He was very cute. She said he didn't smell at all.

And one of the home decor magazines - something about painting that I flipped through at the store - had pictures of a room that would have been perfect for Em. It was pink with MONKEYS! no zombies, though.

well, of COURSE you do! haven't you always? (me too)

In other news ... I'm now doing the dance of low blood pressure. After months of wrestling it down, my last trip to the doctor it read 110/62. yay me! (I do miss the caffeine, though zzzzzz)

I tricked Joe. He said that when we have a house and at least one acre of land, that I could get 1 alpaca. Know what an alpaca is??

A CAMEL!!

well, cousin to a camel. No hump, don't think they can go without water for too long, adapted to high altitudes, but they do have those beautiful eyes. And their wool makes nice yarn and cloth (insanely expensive, but lovely).
