'Serenity'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
You could just smile at them, instead?
The construction guys have finished! The front of my house is looking pretty spiffy... except that now you can focus on the gutters that need redoing and the paint that is starting to peel.
Houses mean never having to ask "What am I going to do with all this lovely money?"
I have three inboxes, and these morons are crashing Outlook.
I am mainlining Haribo Happy Cola gummys. dear god, why are they so yummy.
Manhattanhenge
excited - tomorrow I am walking to Central Park after work - I should get some good views. Maybe I'll remember a camera.
15 year college reunion starts tomorrow night. Sad to learn that one of my good friends does not feel good enough about herself to come out for many things. And another friend won't attend until she thinks she's acheived enough. I don't even know what that means.
I am short a flash drive. That's an unsettling feeling. It's encrypted, so I don't feel vulnerable on that front, but it's the flash drive I run email from, so I want it back now. I hope it's just at home.

faiblesse dans le deduit d’amour
Je ne hais point la liberté. Je l’ai écarté, lorsqu’elle obstruait ma route; je la comprends, j’ai été nourri dans ses pensées.
Si j’ai seduit Cinna, j’en seduirai bien d’autres!
megan, please let me know if I'm overdoing the translation requests. I'm really grateful that you're helping so much with my WIP, and the stuff above I don't even need. It's just a little maddening to stumble across these things and have some idea from the English context what they're saying, but not to KNOW.
third row from bottom, 3rd from left. does the 5th from left look less orangey?
msbelle, Makeup Alley's reviews of the color say it's blue-based red, so it shouldn't go orangey on you.
Man, I wish Revlon still made Revlon Red. *grumps*
