Oh, Kristin. My condolences.

Happy Birthday Ginger!
There's a phenomenal amount of buffista and buffistalet cuteness!
It's sweet that your landlord's dad wanted to do something he thought was nice for you, Kristin. But, yeah, decor is a pretty individual thing. Sorry. Maybe you could tell him your ecological beliefs prohibit decorative lighting?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Are icicle lights the clear twinkley ones? Or the hangy down ones?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The hangy down ones.

What is even happening?
Hangy down.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Thanks for the Goth wedding suggestions. Candles are out as she's allergic, but the wines are a possibility, as is a gift cert to their fave restaurant. I think I can make up a decent gift basket of consumables/useables.
My ex wanted to put icicle lights on our house. I was okay with the orange Halloween lights, but I had to put my foot down about the icicle lights.

Thrive to spite them
Kristin is there anyway you could thank him for thinking of you and wanting to make you welcome but very politely explain that since this is you and ND's first year together in the new house you are hoping to start some new traditions including decorating the house. And leave the lights up for a little while and then take them down?

I am less a fan of the icicle lights. I do like fairy and garden lights though.
Sorry you are still feeling so poorly, sj.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I suck. I just sent Talia over to her sisters to have dinner there instead of taking her out.
