Then again - used microwaves seem kind of dodgy.

My mother got rid of her microwave when she redid her kitchen. Hey, it's her kitchen, but it's a pain in the ass when visiting :)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Man, I don't have the right clothes for Jamaica. I normally wear jeans through the summer, and am just not outside that much. Most of my skirts are not laze around the water skirts, or eat dinner after lazing around the water skirts.
Seven million t-shirts I can do, though. 4 or 5 Supernatural and 1 Batman is the current plan. And seven million books on the Nook, although there's wi fi, so I can always get more.
Cousin who wanted "a tablet" actually decided she wanted an iPad 3. Thank fucking god she specified, because it's not like there's anything *nearly* like an iPad (despite what the courts say--I fiddled with all the thin form factor tablets in Best Buy, and Samsung got shafted, because you can't tell any of them apart at 5 paces).
You know when you're doing a bit, and the other person fucks with your timing? Like, he keeps stretching it out, and keeps not giving you an natural ending? And at some point you realise you've been doing a Valley Girl bit on the miracle of telephones (and the little people inside them) for five minutes, and he just keeps drawing you out, without actually contributing, and the guy over the cube wall (who shouldn't laugh, because he'll always be Chris #3) is probably totally rolling his eyes at you by now? Yeah, that. I hate when that happens.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Chip is a beautiful horse. He looks a bit confused by Joey.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Most of my skirts are not laze around the water skirts, or eat dinner after lazing around the water skirts.
With enough sunscreen or shade, this is nearly every skirt I own. But then I've also gone hiking in a few of them. I figure I can do pretty much anything in a long, swoopy skirt.

How do you hike in a long swoopy skirt without treading on the hem? I have to scoop up my full long skirts just going on the stairs. Wouldn't matter though, most of mine are not designed for 80+ degree weather.

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

Especially swooping. What else do you need to do, really?

I pick them up for things like going over fallen redwoods and starting scrambling up boulders. For just hiking, I hike them a touch higher so the hem is about an inch higher than normal. Gives me just enough clearance. And I totally accept that things like walking over damp lawns will mean damp hems. I'm like a human swiffer most places.
