One side effect of being the child of older parents was the lack of great-grandparents in my life. I learned a few years back that, until I was 6, there was at least one living one (the youngest of my great-grandparents, to my knowledge, born as he was in 1890 or so), but he abandoned the family as soon as my great-grandmother died. As he was by all accounts a nasty man, I suppose it's not much of a loss.
Paul's grandmother is only 80, and I hope she's around long enough for Lillian to remember.
My great-grandmother lived until she was 94. I was seven when she died. My grandfather is currently a great-grandfather to my cousin's two kids. I wonder if they realize how lucky they are to have him.
Vortex, black suit with either the slate blue silk sweater or the crimson silk v-neck sweater (depending on how cleavage-y and flirty you want to be) and the boots or slingbacks. And yay speed dating.
I knew my dad's grandmother, but I don't think any of my other sibs did (or at least, were old enough to remember her). My older-younger sister, maybe.
The person standing next to me, she turns to me and says, "That was quick!" How come women keep saying that to me?
People do this to me ALL THE TIME. I must look interested in elevators of something.
I vote for the black suit and the crimson sweater.
Photos from the 2006 Spring/Summer Dior collection. Very foofy and gothy. (Well, some of it. There are a few brown pieces that look like the models are dressed in moss, and some of the collars are just absurd.)

I saw a lot of gothy type looks in the latest issue of Elle, too. Must be the new black.
Has anybody been watching Roller Derby on A&E?
I like the name "Punky Bruiser."
Plei or Jilli, if you are around, what have you heard about the Marqueen hotel?
Dude! It's
snowing
!!!
There's not much accumulating, but about an inch. And it looks set to continue all day. Weird. Maybe I can get away at lunch and get photos of the Acropolis in the snow.
Of course, just because it's snowing at my house, doesn't mean it's snowing 5 miles away at the Acrop.
