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.
I'm signing into Hotmail today, and it tells me that the credit card I have on file with them is about to expire and I should update it.
Isn't this because all Microsoft owned internet services require you to use Microsoft Passport (or whatever it's called) in order to register? It's Passport that tracks your credit card, regardless of what service you're using at the time.
Here are good things:
Also, given how economically segregated most neighborhood environments are, public high schools can be one of the few places where people encounter other classes/ethnicities/backgrounds on a personal level.
jz -- what a wonderful restaurant. Sounds perfect.
Happy belateds Zmayhem!!! I like the idea of not following the anniversary guidelines, particularly since Mr. H and I never have (oh I think I may have gotten him a leather cigar carrier once, but he did really want it).
Ours is tomorrow, I think it will be our marinated crab claws, bannanas foster and Irish coffee anniversary. IOW- our Earnest's anniversary.
I'm finally caught up, but I have tons of work.
Happy 1-year ZMayhem day!
According to this chart, the "modern" 1-year anniversary gift is clocks, instead of paper.
When DH and I had been married a year, my parents interpreted "paper" as "money," which suited us fine since we really needed it.
Clocks. . . huh.
Hmm. The modern gift for us would be linen/lace. That would leave me with few options for his gift- pretty much a hankerchief. Now next year, I'm totally down with the leather.
According to the modern chart, next week I should be gifted with desk sets. 1. Desk setS? Who needs multiples? 2. "This desk set wants to fly!" from Dead Poets Society is my main referent for desk sets.
This year one of my brother's is at Bronze/potter or Linen/lace and the other is at pottery/willow or leather.
So, once you hit your 20th, you start expecting gifts only every five years?
How Crime Fiction has messed with my brain #511. Paper anniversary looks weird because in the latest Pelecanos(Pelecanos re karoti) almost all the characters are parolees, thus, "on paper" or "coming off paper" so, y'all are having this loving, tender moment and I'm thinking of it like you're needing to pee in a cup. I'm sorry. I'm gonna die alone, huh?
