'Objects In Space'
[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.
Congrats on the house, Seska!
I managed to mostly avoid the football traffic. The road that I usually take toward the campus isn't a main highway, and then once I got right near campus, I was going in the opposite direction from the football traffic. So I went to services, then got lunch at the mall, then went to Bed Bath & Beyond and bought way more stuff than what I went in for. But I did get a bunch of hangers, which is what I was looking for.
Edit: sj, sorry to hear about the dress. Do you have alternatives?
My first stop is going to see if it can be let out at all, and if not, keep looking.
Good luck with the alterations, sj. Seamstresses are pretty amazing.
Yay, house!
That is messed up, omnis.
Good luck with the dress, sj!
I wonder if a better way to put it is the difference between remembering and obsession. Something relevant on the slant is a study that was done a few years ago where it was found that people heal better from emotional trauma (or trauma with a strong emotional component) if they don't talk about it while it is too fresh. The healthiest approach was to go into denial for a time, and then after it was not so fresh, then deal with the trauma and discuss and vent. Because if you talked too much about it right a way, it sort of set the trauma and made it much more difficult to heal.
Also it is interesting how the meaning of memory changes. Prior to 1967, it was a common Israeli attitude to be contemptuous of both survivors and dead of the Holocaust. "Briquettes" was a common epithet, convenient packages ready to be burnt without fighting back. And after 67, the other strain that had always been there of turning Holocaust victims into martyrs into some holy became predominant, because the special relationship between the U.S. and Israel was now in full swing. It was now taken for granted that Israelis were tough guys, so it was more important to sanctify the toughness.
Sadly, I am far too old for her.
Is she underage?
The dress I ordered the other day is in. It will only zip up half way, which is disappointing.
But it zips up half-way. Which means that the seamstress that vw was speculating about, will have something to work with.

Yeah. A good seamstress can make that a low-backed dress or any other number of options.

Typo Boy, I think you give too much credit to the six days war and to U.S.-Israel relations with regarding to the awful victim blaming that took place in Israel in the fifties. Eichmann's trial left much greater impact on Israeli conscious of the holocaust.
Shir you may have a point.
