Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Umm. I sort of bought a laminator.

And made all-access laminates.

For a concert in a tiny venue with one of the musicians being my husband where honestly, no one is going to rush the stage doors ever. For maybe 8 volunteers.

But they look so great! I am a serious dork and he is going to make so much fun of me.

eta: Okay, dishes and then I gotta go to bed. Big day tomorrow.

Lands' End fits are often ... questionable. The quality is often good, but the styling not so much. Of the three dresses I bought on that big sale a few weeks ago, I have sent two back, and the third I'll have to take in.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Shit--that reminds me I had a Land's End to return. Most medium dresses fit me just fine. This one didn't look like it liked me.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I can't really fault Land's End. It's the same problem I have everywhere in that my shoulders are a size or two larger than my torso.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Liese, that's a very nice joke, and I hope it's very appreciated as it should be!

I awoke with such stiffness in my hip muscles that I could hardly bend. It's faded, but wow, I was actually whimpering. Didn't do anything that should have set them off yesterday, either. Bodies R Stoopid.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

jesse what is the name of your designer lady in NYC, I think she was on east 9th?

Jill Anderson.

I have one of those mullet dresses (short in front/long in back) from H&M and kind of love it, although I would have said I'd never.

Ouch, Theo! I hope that shakes itself out.

And Liese, that's awesome. And it's not like this is your last gig! Many uses for passes.

It's really weird -- I've felt some slight stiffness in the morning on and off for a couple weeks now, but this was the worst yet. And now it's completely faded, though the ibuprofen may have helped some.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Am going to see our favorite bouzouki babe in concert tonight. Yay!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Even though I explicitly have a ton of stuff to do in the apartment, the rain makes me feel like I can just sit on the sofa. For a while more, I think.

At least on the evenings when I haven't done anything, I've been looking around placing things in my head, so that will make it go faster when I actually move. I figured out where to hang pictures on the wall, which I couldn't do in my old place, so that's nice.
