I have successfully assembled a kitchen cart! One of these: [link] And now, I've got to deal with all the little bits of styrofoam packaging that are all over my living room rug (vacuum is broken -- one more thing I need to buy), and figure out how to fix a clogged toilet. (It's one of the new water-saver ones with a weird-shaped bowl so that it's impossible to get a seal with the plunger, so trying to use the plunger just ends up splashing water everywhere. There's a weird-shaped plunger in the bathroom closet, and I tried that one, but it didn't do anything.)
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Oh, of course that wouldn't work either. Only Gujarati women whose families are within a certain radius and come from a certain income level and belong to a certain caste will work, of course.
With brothers, right?
I fixed the toilet! Then scrubbed most of the bathroom, because all that water splashing is just ew.
P-C, do they actually just want you to marry your sister? Will anyone else ever tick the boxes?
Don't tell my white raised Catholic sister and her black Raised muslim husband that mixing doesn't work! I'd hate to have to break them up now after so many years. And he just got a vespa, I wanna see it!
I'm in awe of Hil. I'm rescheduling my room cleaning to Thursday, myself.
I read a bit of Im Tirzu's site, and oh dear.
No! Don't do that! I read their forums once, trying to understand their brains. I realized two things: one, that their brains are very similar to my favorite spam: "I’m currently being held prisoner by the Russian mafia penis enlargement penis enlargement and being forced to post spam comments on blogs and forum! If you don’t approve this they will kill me". Two, that the true definition of "self hating Jew" is a leftist who reads their forums.
No! Don't do that!
Dude, I followed YOUR LINK.
Dude, I followed YOUR LINK.
AHAHAHAHA.
I have to admit I'm pleasantly surprised -- the friend whose FB post I commented on (re: not a mosque, not being inaugurated on 9/11/11, etc., etc.) replied with this:
Stephanie...You are awesome!!!! Thanks so very much! You know I never really watch TV and I have been working so many hours lately that I haven't kept up with the times. Thanks so much for filling in the blanks for us!
It could be disingenuous or sarcastic, but I'm pretty sure it's not.
So that's something.
It was likely sincere, Teppy. I have a number of family and friends that depend on me to know actual facts.
IOLauraN, my son left on Saturday. Today is Tuesday and he just called to discuss moving home and working in the family business. I told him we would talk when I got home.
