Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

Our wings are not tired.

Yup, I did it with loose pearls - allowed me to clean each individually with the nylon without losing any of the little suckers. Once dried, I re-strung.

So my next question, which I don't expect anyone to be able to answer, is when did mainstream fashion start taking its cues EXPLICITLY from me? I was in Macy's today, and there was a whole section (and not the teen section!) that was racks of fitted boleros and cardigans, in black & pink stripe.

With ruffled trim.

Yes, I'm going back there on Saturday and getting one. But seriously? When did mainstream fashion pick up my colorways?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh, hey. Fourteen years.

But it takes awhile for the designs to filter down to the mainstream.

I accidentally locked Devi in the basement with the scary shopvac for 90 minutes while I was out swimming. Oops. I heard her crying plaintively when I walked in the door and was wondering why she wasn't coming when I answered her.

I should dry the floors down there, but I think I'll wait until the rain is really done.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Just had a start. A raccoon was on my little third-floor balcony, peering in at me through the glass door. First time I've seen one around here.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Hec, that link is AWESOME! I love how the women are all wearing figure skates but don't lace the boots up all the way--they just tie 'em around the ankles. Derby boots are all low-top so you can get more maneuverability in your ankles. And no elbow pads, wrist guards or mouth guards! MEEP!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

the Platonic ideal of eyebrows and then denying it to men.

Peter Gallagher is somewhere right now flipping the bird to the Platonic ideal of eyebrows.

Holy shit, this is just upstream from lisah& my's vet: [link]

I know they did a lot of reinforcement of the bank (the vet is right smack up against the Falls) but I hope they are ok. I've never seen the water that high. Usually it is a burbling stream way far below.
