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.
How do you do your nails in the evening and not end up with sheet marks in the morning?
Nubar Diamont and, if I'm pushing it really late (like, five minutes before bedtime late), I use cuticle oil over the manicure. (Seche doesn't play nicely with me. When I don't use Diamont, I use Poshe.)
Kat, I found a cream colored sweater (with some small holes, dammit) that's 50% wool, 45% acrylic and 5% cashmere. Will that work for your project?
Vortex, you are a doll for looking, but it won't. I'm going to felt the sweaters and I think the acrylic will stop it from felting.
Okay, gotta get off my butt and get my sewing machine set up. I'm making an apron for Noah and I'm finishing a dress for myself. Sigh. Then I'm going to finish one of these damn quilts or else.

darn. Thanks for the compliment but I can't take too much credit. I was looking for a sweater to wear this weekend, and came across this one, which I don't want to throw away for a few small holes, but know that I will never mend it myself, and this would have been a good compromise :)
"Vegetarians who eat meat." [link]
But only recently have former vegetarians been so smug about their forays to the dark side. "There is something almost primal about it," writes lapsed vegetarian Tara Austen Weaver, describing her first meat-buying expedition in The Butcher and the Vegetarian. "I haven't actually hunted dinner myself, but I set my sights and claimed the prize I sought."
right next to the worker marking down the Christmas merchandise? A HUGE VALENTINE DISPLAY - and entire row already filled up with chocolate hearts. good god y'all.
The day after Christmas...Dec. 26...my brother and I were at Walmart and they already had Easter candy out. EASTER. CANDY.
One of the cousins I was hanging with this weekend used to give herself a new manicure every night, and record the colour combo in a journal. She trained herself to sleep with her hands untouched by sheets. She's more than a little focussed.
AfterElton.com is having a poll to decide the gay man of the decade. Apparently it's effectively down to NPH or John Barrowman, and now there's a #biggaybattle tweet war about it--Whedon and Gaiman and Hannigan and Kimmel have lobbied for their parties. Meanwhile Elton John and George Takei and Ian McKellen are left behind in the digital age.
When I was working at B&N on Dec. 26, one of the managers was putting up Valentine displays.

Note to self: time to check Fred Meyer & Target for stripy socks with hearts on them, because the dryer ate my last pair.
I'm trying to think of how many decades it's been since I wore nail polish. Too much work for lazy me, and I hated the way it made my fingers feel, like the nails were being squeezed ever so slightly. I try not to do things that come with a disconcerting feature that I'll need to get used to.
