On HRTV they've been running for an item supposedly in memory of the Titanic but it's actually a replica of the necklace from the movie Titanic. That necklace wasn't based on something real, was it?

'Trash'
Natter 69: Practically names itself.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, man, I overslept today. I woke up at five with the SO. I've been getting up at five or six with him the past couple of days. But he told me, "It's Saturday, you should sleep in." And it was cozy and warm under the blankets and I said, OK! Five hours later...
Which would normally be fine on a Saturday, but I was supposed to go to a solar workshop this morning at 10:00. It seemed kinda simplistic, odds are I know everything they were going to say. But still.
Anyway, I feel great now, so I guess I needed the sleep. We'll see if I can get some weeding done today and try to finish off a lot of work stuff. And put the laundry away. I need to put the laundry away.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So I did go for sort of a half-assed walk, but at least I got to the river. So that was good. I also did recon at the party store -- I am so nervous about throwing this party! And yet? Have not confirmed the location or invited a single person.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I went out to lunch with a friend, and now I'm trying to decide what to do with my afternoon. I've got some grading to do, but I seriously need a break from grading, so I think I might read instead and leave the grading until tomorrow.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

That's ridiculously cute.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Go play with Google Maps today! Upper right, click on Quest... and check out the Streetview too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I just did that, Zen!! I couldn't believe Streetview.

Punishingly Intricate
Had to break down and buy a good-enough bra because my current barely-good-enough is experiencing structural collapse
Did you see my question about Bare Necessities in Greenspring? Have you tried them yet. I just remembered yesterday that they do tailoring there! And they have a pretty big selection.

Not yet. They have lady-of-leisure hours, unfortunately. I can't get up there today, so maybe in a couple weeks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I only drink the oolong I do because it makes an amazing chai. I might give the Verdant Tea chais a try. As for jasmine dragon thingy, Adagio looks good, but they're out of stock. And I'm really dramatically in stock. I have so much of that shit. It'll be a while before I need to look around on that front.
At this point I feel I could also get really obsessive about mugs and teacups--I'm definitely markedly preferring the ones I have with something written on, and as I bounce around the tea sites there are just some really aesthetically well put together ones.
I've been curled up in a ball all morning. Not even watching TV. Not sure those errands are going to get run, but I'm surely going reheat some tea.
