We had free ice cream sundaes again, which was nice. Also my boss brought in morning treats and then someone decided we should get something for her work anniversary. Why do we need another cake today?? That shit makes no sense. Also I am not comfortable with going down the road of celebrating anniversaries at work. I think it's dumb.
But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

ION, I left one voicemail about the fact that the movers left a couple of pads at my place, so now I can just keep them, right? I don't need to pursue this?

Because books.
If you left a message, and you've already paid your bill, yeah.

Right? I just figure it's barely my problem at all.

Hey, Sophia, if you're still around, what do you call the metal pieces that hold men's suspenders together? Is there a word for them? And in the '20s, what would they likely be made of if you could afford quality?
The thingie on the back of the suspender? I think in the 20's it would actually be made of leather, but I would have to do a little research. Like this: [link]
Every "period" pair of pants I have ever seen is made for Y-back suspenders.
Or do you mean the adjusters?

The adjusters! That's what I couldn't think of. Probably ... brass? And thank you -- I did see Y-back with buttons, so I think he'd wear those.

>Probably ... brass?
I would think. I don't think even a very rich person would have a precious metal because they were more like underwear- not at all meant to be seen. So I am not sure what the "common" metal would be at that time, but whatever that is, I think that would be it!

Also 1920's is a bad era to reseach online because there is a lot of mis information and "halloween" type costume stuff out there.
Because I am not a re-creator, I tend to try to look at original photographs of real people, but I don't have a lot of knowledge on materials used.

Thank you for looking, Sophia! I haven't been finding much either, but I also don't really have to mention the adjusters. I just need to give the impression that this guy, in these clothes, is not the sort who usually joins a carnival.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am about to email an offer to a potential caregiver/household manager person. I am so fearful that they will not accept that I have taken all day to do this. I need someone to start this coming week.
ok - cross all fingers and toes people.
