You all gonna be here when I wake up?

Because books.
I'm imagining sitting here at home writing, in sequins, and long white gloves, and maybe an ivory cigarette holder. It's sort of delightful, actually.
Although it would seem like I should be writing something a la Colette, and not teen angst.

I have no sequins. Frankly, I am just not a sequins kind of gal.
But I do have the very nice grey Calvin Klein dress I got at the Rack this weekend. And red shoes.
Woops, and happy birthday, P-C! May this year be awesome.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Matt, if the impulse continues, my roller derby league is still looking for a new logo.

Happy Birthday, P-C!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sequins can be quite tasteful. It's an Indian cotton skirt in black, and there are a smattering of sequins at the yoke at the top, and some around the hem. I doubt anyone, until pressed, will remember sequins about today's outfit.
I don't think I own anything where the sequins actually touch each other. Maybe I should redress that.
Man, I hate being late for this meeting. No tea til it's over, so no Bramley mini apple pies yet.

People with cars, help me out here - my mother has offered to give me her 10-year old car (as a "loan" where basically it's my car but I can't sell it to anyone else) so I'm pricing out insurance. None of Geico's prebuilt packages include comprehensive or collision, but I'm thinking those are kind of important? Am I wrong?

People I know with old cars only get liability since the value of the car is so low at that point.
Consider dropping collision and/or comprehensive coverages on older cars. If your car is worth less than 10 times the premium, purchasing the coverage may not be cost effective.
