It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

I'm even wearing Talbot's right now, come to think of it.

Bahahaha! I'm not (I'm wearing VS pink polka dot flannel pjs). I just think of Talbots as not for the "Let's Meet at 11!" crowd.

I'm such a morning person I can't even conceive of meeting that late.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I know people who don't even think 11pm is "late night." Those people are not my people.

You're totally wasting New York! Give up your space to someone else!

It was suggested I go out drinking last night. Wednesdays are not for last minute late night plans. I'm pretty sure of that. I went to McGill, and last-minute late-night doesn't start until Thursday.

Even just saying "Cross-cultural communication" is hard!

That's such an adorable nickname!

a cheap old nylon-string guitar I pulled out of storage at my parents' house

So, truly his father's son, right? You had an avatar on WX with a guitar, right?

He's 11 months next week

What, already? Wow. Also, I wish there could be pictures, too.

Did your philosophy of science class go well?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm also still slightly miffed that my Shakespeare class switched from the Riverside edition to another, less beautiful edition the semester I took it

That's completely understandable. I own two copies.

I have some Talbots I really like -- ankle length grey wool A-line skirt, grey wool pleated trousers, and a black ankle length wrap skirt with 18" line paisley drawings. I really really need to replace the pants, but I can't bear to go back in.

I'll go with you. PLEATED! ACK! OHMIGOD!

I like Talbots well enough. I just don't own very much of it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And I wish I could post pictures, 'cause I swear that kid gets cuter every day.

Aw! I can't believe he's that big already.

You're totally wasting New York! Give up your space to someone else!

Bah! This is why I live in Queens, anyway.

I just think of Talbots as not for the "Let's Meet at 11!" crowd.

I will say, my Talbot's shirt I'm wearing is shiny and red and hardly matronly at all. I think.

But you're thin enough that pleated would look good on you.

Okay, question: how many people here fear swimming in deep water? in the pool? in a lake? in the ocean?

I ask because morning news said 46% of people fear deep water in pools and ~60% fear deep water in oceans and lakes.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Not me. I love swimming.

Man, you pleat haters. They're practical! They allow you to go from a fitted small waist to an unhindered hip in a lined business-like pant. So we can go from the office to high kicks without wardrobe changes.

You people and your misbegotten priorities.

Oh, hey! 2006! I need to go clothes shopping. But I'm still at least 5 pounds underweight.
