I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Send her 20 flowers, one each for your years of friendship.

Ooh, good idea! I think yellow roses are supposed to symbolize friendship.

Jilli: gmail was acting up last night, but I wanted to tell you that the Mineral Basics foundation is nice. I'll decant you a bag of it.

Really? Doesn't leave you disco-ball shiny? Good to know.

I'll probably send her flowers, though, mostly b/c I can't think of anything else.

Flowers are GOOD.

Wait, I thought yellow roses symbolized betrayal. Of course, all my Language of Flowers reference books are over a century old, so they may be wrong for the current era.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Send her 20 flowers, one each for your years of friendship.

Woman, I love you. That's perfect!

Hmmm. According to The Gardener website, it could go either way: [link]

rose (yellow) - Friendship; jealousy; try to care

Maybe a mixed bouquet would be safer.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Woman, I love you.

Awww! I love you, too!

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Teppy, I've been unhappily single for 8 years now and worked reception in buildings where I was constantly accepting flowers to deliver to other women who worked there. I would be THRILLED to get flowers from anyone. It's a very thoughtful gesture regardless of whether it comes from an SO or not.

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

Language of flowers: [link]

It looks like yellow roses or chrysanthemums and ivy, unless you want to convey something really arcane like "Beware cheerfulness and rashness" (begonia, buttercup and hyacinth).

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I've heard yellow as friendship. That sounds like a fantastic treat.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Really? Doesn't leave you disco-ball shiny? Good to know.

It's not shiny at all. Demi-matte, I'd say. Plus, it's very finely milled, so it applied easily and covered fairly well, despite the fact that I was using a cotton ball to apply it. (Flocked sponges on order, and my usual mineral makeup sponge needs cleaning, so I made do.)
