That's lovely.

Natter 71: Someone is wrong on the Internet
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.
Electric blue or royal blue?
Denim. Indigo. I guess. We'll see when I get there.
So pretty, ita!
I was also trying to figure out what the cartoon silhouette for the Oughts would look like. I guess the 90s is now signaled by flannel/Grunge.
Hipster-rific, or Jersey Shore inspired?
I was just noticing that the women at the Wholefoods near work seem to be wearing the most expensive (well, not LA expensive--Lululemon, the like) but pristine exercise clothes. They just look...shiny, and not in a sweaty way.
Exactly! Same thing with their shoes. It's like super comfy supportive exercise gear but it's there to support their tired achey bodies instead of a physically stressed body.
Without the lights, no one would notice the elephants.
It's quite unclear whether people can make out the unlit elephants. It's a big grey area.
It's a big grey area.
Heh.
I admit I wore my exercise gear all day. I usually do, unless I can manage a shower right after class.
Oh, you guys, today's classic story from my grandmother: She was telling us about her cousin who would come visit in the summers. He had a really cute Irish girlfriend for years, but one year he came with a PITA new girlfriend, who was even less pretty than the Irish girl! So apparently my great-grandmother said she was going to get him to marry her, and she did. "Well, I guess my mother was right.... She was better in bed." Me, mock-horrified: "But how would he know that before they got married????" My grandmother: "They lived in New York."
Hah, Jesse, that's awesome.
Cass, thanks for your hard-won wisdom. My sister & I are trying to keep an eye on Dad without trampling his independence, but he's also kind of lonely, so it's a hard balance. Anyway, I booked flights for us both to go to Colorado to see my brother & his family, and then Dad will go on to Chicago to see my oldest brother and his restaurant.
Today, we took him to church and then had a nice Father's Day brunch and a walk in the woods & strawberry-rhubarb pie. (Which turned out far better than I expected, since I was convinced the inside would be sweet red soup.)
He seemed pleased, but tired and he seems to have very little stamina. Which makes me worry a little about going to Colorado; we're going to Crested Butte for part of the trip, which is even higher than Boulder.
Anyway. I just hope he can get some real enjoyment out of life for a while.
