I love your fashion dilemmas, ita.
Mine is why can't I get the word YES, which was written on my back in skin marker -- an actual product, by the way, not Sharpie which is too pricey -- off my back?
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Notes for the surgeon?
Makeup remover wipes or things that are oil-based. Or, you know, oil.

Shaving cream? Domestic shooting a couple blocks from me. Suspect unaccounted for. Explains the copters. Ah, Baltimore.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Or if the marker is oil based, witch hazel.

You know, I had completely forgotten that Anne Rice was the originator of "You are interrogating the text from the wrong perspective"
You would think that's something I would remember, too. But nope.
But I have a slightly off white silk button down I can wear the red/dark red stripes with, but I seriously cannot find the right black skirt for it. I have a black A-line skirt with red pinstripes
That outfit sounds sharp! Wear that!

Baby wipes. Baby wipes, and a tiny bit of baking soda. That should remove it, because I've used that combo to remove Sharpie writing from my skin before.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Was sarameg just saying that the lady on Dropout Nation reminded her of Tammy Taylor? Because I was just thinking the same thing!

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

Wide stripes! Narrow stripes!
When you consider the random things I don't care about pattern wise, this is pretty damned nuts. But I often stare at tie/shirt or tie/jacket combos on TV thinking nuh-huh.
And I have worn the Doc Marten Mary Janes twice this week, so character shoes it is.
Oh! I have a bracelet question. If you have a bracelet with writing or a picture that has orientation to or away from your hand (like a Livestrong or What Would Jesse Do bracelet), what way do you point it? So you can read it, or so others can?
Okay, here's another provocateuse question. Here are the top women on venus.provocateuse.com. The most popular got over 19K hits between the start of August and now. The lowest on this list got 2,200. Who do you figure is top and who is bottom?
- fairuza balk
- aj cook
- maggie gyllenhaal
- katherine heigl
- queen latifah
- helen mirren
- aishwarya rai
- winona ryder
- lili taylor
I really need to track back and find out the *why* of all this. Shit is random.

Erm, so? (Says the woman who's planned outfit for tomorrow includes a black blazer with narrow pink stripes and a pair of stockings that are wide pink and white stripes.)

So I can read it, because I'm wearing it for me.

But I already know what it says? (It's the Wonder Woman logo in this specific case...)
As for the stripes, if the thin stripes were on the smaller or higher piece of clothing (tie), I wouldn't feel awkward about it. But if feels upside down this way.

Our wings are not tired.
You guys! My BFF is pregnant! I am so excited. She was on the pill and its a huge shock but she and her husband and kids are all excited.
Is this you-know-whose sister?? Cool beans!
Kat, so happy that your surgery went well and you're out of pain.
Lots more, but dude I am the worst Meara-er EVER.
