Well, I'm gone for a week. Which is part of the problem, but really, who really thinks you can cram in a major project in the couple weeks before the holidays? So many people I needed are not here. And now I'm not either.

Eight seems the age that my cousins' grandparents sent them the dollhouse version of Hearst Castle.

Boot cut jeans are often tight around my thighs, which is also not so cute, IMO. Also, I don't think Uggs are objectively terrible, just a stupid trend.

I witnessed one more snotty email at work, which I basically ignored, and am just letting it all go. Aaahhhh.

Dollhouse age would depend on how fragile the pieces are. Old enough that normal play for that age wouldn't break it. (They make dollhouse furniture specifically for kids playing, but most of the nicer stuff really can't stand up to too much play.)

(In high school, I was really into miniatures -- built a few dollhouses and a whole ton of furniture, read the miniatures magazines, designed a few things. Haven't really done much with that since starting college, since I haven't really had room for it. Definitely on my list of things to get back into when I have a home big enough to support hobbies.)

I was about a minute away from being the one sending the snotty email, but I am too just letting it go. Mostly.

When climatically appropriate, I don't mind them. With shorts in Southern California? WTF???

(I realize people have thought I was crazy for wearing sandals and sweaters at the same time but they were light sweaters and I was comfy, dammit.)

Wow. A church in Florida is threatening to publically "tell the sins" of a woman who's living with her boyfriend, unless she breaks up with him. She left the church and formally cancelled her membership, but they're still going to do this. [link]

Hancock choose that moment to leave the church. After announcing she was not returning to the church she figured that she was rid of the problem. Young prepared her that the church would not let it end there. He was right. The pastor continued to call even after he was informed that the couple did not want to have contact with him nor any member of his church.

Couldn't this count under some harassment or stalking laws?

wouldn't be shedding any tears here if something should... happen... to the Salt Lake Temple, myself.

I do hope you're not advocating an explosion in the middle of a city where several people I love live. Or, indeed, any explosions where anyone lives.

Oh GOD-- the church is here in Jacksonville. I am beyond embarrassed to live in this backwater burg.

Aren't the originally apres-surf shoes from Australia? Or did I make that up?
