A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

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?

4/9/09

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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

Did you see some of the images in the comments? Peter Gallagher might very well be waxing in comparison. His eyebrows are large, but they're cleanly defined. And there are two of them. See?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You know, there are a lot of days where I know I have done a lot of good for Dita in helping her get past the whole grew up feral so is afraid of everything deal.

Today is not one one of those days.

Lock her in the basement with the water and the scary shopvac, eh?
