well, you probably can narrow down some fabric/colors you like if you just walk through a JCP or Lowe's display area.
95% of drapes are ugly.
Maybe 98%.
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
In a pinch, for relatively plain floor-to-ceiling curtains, flat sheets with a wide top hem... Or whatever that is called. Pick apart the stitches at the sides to slip the curtain rod through.
ETA one of my apartments in college, we had found some gorgeous lace Roman shades, and for more privacy and light filtering, we put up white sheets as curtains over the windows as well. When the sun shone in through the lace, the effect was lovely.

Maybe 98%.Oh good. That makes me feel better. I thought I was being wishy/washy and picky.

Ugh. I hate when I'm interested in someone and they're not either clearly saying no, or clearly saying yes. Because really. I mean, I can play the game, but eesh. Also, I am a girl of little patience, so I can only play for so long until I break down in the "so, are we going to make out now?" (or more recently, in response to "what did you have in mind" after suggesting a hangout, "well, something that ends in making out?")

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I have no drapery advice. Sorries.
Back from party. Can I just say - Nora, Tom, and I got five trivia answers right out of less than ten? I got the guy who shot Kaylee in Firefly (couldn't remember name but gave more detail than others) and then the catchphrase for Doctor number Ten. Really, I was the only one to holler "Allons-y!!" Nora and Tom rocked the Futurama questions.
And now to sleep all the sleep. Yessssss.

I need to get off the couch. And scrub off The Silence hash marks.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I would just about rank that even with "I'm so sorry". Spent a lot of time apologising, he did.

Oh, also random thought from the fabric store today (I am spending way too much money on fabric for no specific project, just "ooh, that's pretty!"): Should I be less surprised or more surprised that the store had Republican fabric, but not Democrat? (it said Republican in red, in various fonts, and had little elephants). I totally would've bought the Democrat fabric, but are more Republicans fabric-buyers? Even in Seattle? Is it that old women shop? WTF?
