It really brought home just what a vast distance twenty-five miles was, two hundred years ago.
Twenty-five miles was a big deal 40 years ago, too, in that neck of the woods. In my family, you planned a drive like that a few days in advance, in the "Let's go to Morgantown this Saturday" sense. A 40-mile drive was a true adventure.
It's still like that, to a degree. I suppose people could easily drive 25-miles inside the county, going back and forth between people's houses and into town, etc., but 25-miles in one direction that will take you that far from home . . . it's not something some people do casually.

GC,you always look fabulous, but that haircut is an extra dose of fabulous!
I will be so happy when this car stuff is over and my mother has one less thing to nag me about. Can I please have some ~ma that the insurance company faxes over what they are supposed to and I can sign all the paperwork tonight. TCG has tomorrow off and the weekend, so it would be much easier to get everything done then.
GC, that cut is awesome! You look tres sexy and chic.
Car~ma, sj. That's sounds like a lot of work!

It's been a complete pain in the ass, to be completely honest, but I keep trying to remind myself that a 2006 Camry with incredibly low mileage is worth the trouble. I feel bad for the man I am buying the car from. He's a small time dealer and has been waiting a while for his money.
Fashion question: Should I get the trixie2 dress in red or black?

I'm not sure that shade of red would be flattering for me.
Thanks for the compliments. I'm still getting used to having no hair in back.
If it were me, sj, I'd get black. I'm also picky about my colors (like to see them in person).
GC, I actually said "oh, that's really cute!" out loud when I saw the pic.

I'm leaning toward the black, but I keep saying I'm going to add more color to my wardrobe. What I really want is a silk slip and the short robe for myself as a honeymoon gift, but they're way to pricey.
