Natter 42, the Universe, and Everything
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, flaming otters, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yes, I was messing around, Gus. Just about everywhere else I post, I use emoticons when I'm joking to avoid just such confusion but Buffista-land is not particularly emoticon-friendly, is it?
But you are right that it's fraught messing around with someone you don't know well so I think I shall use more caution in future.
Fuck caution. Caution sucks swamp water out of a long hose.
However, if you bring an emoticon in here, you will find it branded on your forehead in the morning, in four colors of ink, with an infection.
Less hair... [link] The baby face in the 2nd one makes me laugh.
Hmm. Now that I look at that, I don't think the first one is a genuine photo of Eddie. I think his face—or part of it, anyway... there's some show-through—has been Photoshopped over a porn star's body.
I paid $70 for a shirt once (people at last year's prom or the 2004 Annual Review's Soulless Social saw me wearing it). It gets me petted and felt of a lot, and on one occasion played a part in getting me laid, so I consider it money well spent.
I live out in the ass-end of No Where. I think a good shirt goes for a Benji. You cannot do a suit for under a Grand.
My shirts never cost that much. Maybe I'm just...cheap.
if the ass-end of No Where has the internet, shirts don't
have
to cost $100. But if the shirt is really nice, why not?
I think also that the shirt size Gus wears probably isn't all that common. Plus, it needs more cloth than the usual shirt.
I must be more LA than I thought, because while I can't recall ever spending $100 on a shirt, I can certainly see how one might be tempted. I don't need dress shirts for work, so it's a moot point. DH bought a $200 tuxedo shirt to wear to our wedding, but I think that was dress envy.
morning. 18 degrees outside when I left, but it feels much colder.
The poor stupid bulbs that starting growing 2-3 weeks ago are so confused.
It feels very Monday (which means I would rather still be in bed and I kinda am pissed off at everyone for no good reason), and I am trying to squash the Mondayness by remembering what a good day Friday was and how rested I am. ANd OH! maybe I will make plans to go see a movie tonight.
My body is unused to cold, so I can't conceive of how cold 18 degrees is. Yeeps. Sounds verra cold.
I'm having a good Monday in that I woke up early and rested enough to grade, and I get to go to my daughter's daycare this afternoon for Franny's good bye party. She's saying good bye to toddlers and moving up to the preschool group. There will be homemade banana bread and a crown. Fun!
