We're going to a Mardi Gras shindig tonight, and the mask (that I solicited votes on) that I picked is...Batmanuel! More comfortable for a long evening, plus sequins!
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Completely shallow fashion note (but if it doesn't belong in Bitches, I don't know where it could possibly go): I've never cared much one way or the other about Donna Karan, but the Fall 2012 collection that TLo just posted is making me whimper with longing. I'm pretty sure a lot of the looks are, if not positively Jilliesque, at least Jilli-adjacent (in a very, very urban high couture way, but still, Jilli-adjacent).
Those are gorgeous, but definitely not what I think of when I think of Donna Karan.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Those are gorgeous,
Aren't they, though?
but definitely not what I think of when I think of Donna Karan.
Totally not, but in a completely amazing way.
Any house news?

No. Waiting for them to get back to us on whether or not they're willing to do the fixes we want done on the house before we buy it. And the owners work odd hours so it is wait wait wait right now.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
On other news, I hear the Maryland House of Delegates has passed the same sex marriage bill. Now it has to get through the state senate.

Instead of Red and Blue states we're going to have Can Get Gay Married Here States, and Women Aren't Really People States.

move out and draw fire
I saw that. I've been avoiding FB (again) because one of my very dear friends and co-workers is being very active about trying to keep it from passing.
I've actually been sort of avoiding everything today. I'm wiped out from family stress and having too many jobs and don't-wanna-can't-make-me.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
and Women Aren't Really People States.
Which, not unrelatedly, leaves me both seeing RED and feeling blue.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
In CT... and was greeted at the airport by my mom with the news that dad is in the hospital again! It should be just overnight while they transfuse him with 3 units of blood, but... sheesh. Glad I'm here for my mom though.
Also, flying out of nola with a hangover is super cloches and not as much fun as you might think.
Eta: aw, Bella!! I hope she is ok, poor princess.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Ack. Glad you decided to go.

I cannot figure out what might autocorrect to "super cloches."
And it's Xusha, not Bella, who hurt herself. Rotund old kitties shouldn't be jumping up and down from bookshelves.
So my disco nap turned into a two-hour snooze, and I'm not going to any parades tonight. Which sucks, because it's supposed to pour tomorrow. Oh well. Nora, do you think Tom would be interested in going to Chewbacchus with me?
