What is even happening?

Pffftt. Corset-style piercings. Whatever. Seen 'em before, and it's not like they're permanent. Since they're surface piercings, you're only supposed to leave them in for something like a week at most. Good for photo shoots or fetish events where you want to look extra-hardcore.
That cut my skeeve in half, Jilli. Thank you.

Anne, that's an interesting take on Prince Charles, huh?

Cashmere, I am sorry for your frustration at the funeral politics, and still so sorry for your loss.

Susan, Annabel is too cool for school! Great cake, by the way.

I mostly know this because some of the babygoths over on the Heirs to the Throne LJ gothy-goth community were all in a tizzy about *how kewl* it would be to have that sort of piercing, and show it off with halter tops and stuff!! OMG! The older, saner members of the community explained exactly what that sort of piercing entailed, and the kidlings settled down. Of course, reminding them that they needed parental permission for any piercing also made them a bit quiet ...

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Friends don't friends dress like The Crow or lingerie.

Who knew that the laundry place would be so busy on a Thursday afternoon. I think there are some people who came in after me that are REALLY not happy with me. I used all but two of the machines...

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

That's a good time to smile sweetly and apologize for using so many machines "...but I have this contagious skin condition...you haven't touched any of my clothes, have you?"

Oh, I did...smile sweetly, that is. I didn't tell them about the lovely skin condition. I also offered to let the girl go ahead, since I was using so many machines. She said no, so...

You're a better person than I am, vw.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You should say, "The expected value of others' annoyance of me is the same whether I use many machines for a short period of time or fewer machines over a longer period of time."

Of all days for the laundramat (sp?) to be this busy, they had to pick today. I'm totally not up for dealing with this anymore. I still need to go back and get the laundry, then fold it, put it away and remake the bed. Then, at some point, I need to take out the trash (which there is a lot of this week, because I was lazy and didn't take out the boxes last week). I don't have the energy for anything else today. I'm totally and completely overwhelmed and sobbing. This is ridiculous.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

The laundromat always has that effect on me. Every time I think about laundromats (or what my aunt calls Wishy-Washies), I feel like I should go hug my washer and dryer. Your last two days would overwhelm almost anyone, vw. It's just too much crap at once.
