Kentucky Derby style hat

Is this a particular hat, or the general over-the-top, foofy, big-race hats? The only thing that has had me paying any attention to Preakness coverage is the incredible hats.

I just mean big-race hats. I love them!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I bought a bag full of organizey things and now I am off to buy a new TV and a new A/C. I did my research, know what I plan to buy and even compared prices between 2 stores online.

Hopefully getting a delivery will not be a problem.

Go you with the organizey, msbelle! That's a good feeling when you can go in knowing you're getting the best product for the best price.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, while I'm working (working!) on my paper, I have What Not To Wear on, and it's Tanya from New Orleans with the weird accent, and I noticed the key thing! Her boyfriend tells her he's making a videotape to send to her family in South Africa. That also explains why her sister is Brig. Phew!

My dad just figured out how to send pictures he's taken with his cellphone. Pardon me while I laugh and laugh. (Earlier on the phone he was bitching about how he didn't need a phone that takes pictures, but he had no choice because his old one died and this was the replacement and WHAT WAS THE POINT etc.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Hurrah -- I'm out in the backyard, with my trusty laptop on my lap, with the neighbor's cat sitting next to me. Plus I was able to clean up some of the most egregious yardmess.. Now I rest....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh fuck. Saw Devi eyeing something. One of those really small roaches. I flip-flopped it to death. I've never had roaches. Why do I have roaches?! I keep everything edible in ziplocs.

Did I ever mention I really hate roaches? The big ones most of all (then I lose my shit) but I don't much appreciate the small ones either.

How to tell your aunts are getting elderly: they refer to your cousin as a "nice young man." He's in his forties. He's balding. I'm not saying that either thing makes him old, it's just the perspective shift. "Young" used to refer to under 20 when used to describe us.
