Dear Indian Restaurant,
Bring me my fucking dinner. You are three blocks away, and I called you almost an hour ago. Also, you are closing in 2 minutes.
No love,
Very Hungry Jess
I wanna hurt you, but I can't resist the sinister attraction of your cold and muscular body!

And I include Target in this. They shouldn't cost me more than $10.
I wait until Target's go on sale. They are usually under $10. But some are fugly. I have a few pairs that are suedish with irridescent beadwork, which always makes me smile (I think I had the lavendar ones last fall.) I wouldn't wear them to the store, but at least they are purty. Of course, lately, the cheap functional ones on sale are the foam sole+ clear plastic thongs. Which aren't purty. But, functional and inoffensive.
Cat in the Bag tale.
Whirr? I had a cat in the bag earlier tonight. Catnip+ paper bag=comedy. Until they decide to sleep on the bag. Both my cats think it is prime bedding. There have been several mini-dramas and they try to claim sitting rights to The Bag (now sadly squashed.)
T's dad stopped by with her on the way home tonight. To tell me he was enjoying the book I loaned. (Bean Trees by Kingsolver. Figured it was harmless enough.) Erg? Actually, what's funny is that she is so patently 11 year old Embarassed! by dad. Which I reassure her not to be. But that's the age.

The status is NOT quo.
God, that fashion at that time was so shapeless. I had the best body of my life with the worst time to show it off!
So this! All I wore in the late 80's and early 90's were huge, shapeless things. Gah!
ION, I'm wearing capris and flip flops right now AIFG.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
My dinnerware came with teacups. Perfectly lovely teacups in that they match and hold tea, but I don't like using them for coffee. I'm just more of a mug person.
Thing is? I've been randomly looking for mugs to buy for the six years that I've had the set. Now? There are actual mugs.
Is $56 too much to pay for four frakking coffee mugs? I mean, I feel like it is, but I also want them. I'm all quandried.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh... I like those. And it makes the soon-to-be-mine mugs look more reasonable in comparison! I still love my dinnerware and it will be nice to have this particular shopping need fulfilled.

And for some reason people didn't want their bras to show through.
I still don't want my bra to show through. I'm not going to spend too much money on a shirt, then feel like I have to spend even more money for a bra that I want people looking at. My bra is to hold my tits up/down/in. It's got a job to do, it's not supposed to be spending its time waving at the crowds and worrying about whether it looks right.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
There's a brand new Hustle on tonight!
This makes me happier than it probably should.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
$56 is way too much to pay for a coffee mug. Since this is for a set of four, it's really $14 per mug, which is expensive but acceptable, in my opinion. I have spent up to $25 on mugs that commemorate a special event, that the proceeds go to charity, or that are hand made.
Of course, I collect mugs.
I never intend my bra to show, but I have noticed that I have recently become less panicky than I used to if it shows inadvertently.
