If a fit of girliness, I got eyelash extensions yesterday. They felt fine last night but my eyes have been watering all day. Not sure if I'll keep them up or not.

Why is an old woman giving you a thong gift???
meara, that is exactly my question! I mean, she usually gives me magazines, which I appreciate and love. But a thong?! Plus, I have been swimming and lockering with her every week day and many Saturdays since July. I have never worn a thong in that time!
Also, I had to help her dispense mousse today because the new canister she had was too hard to use.
There's something completely lovely and haunting about the frailty of my Y friends, who are all 30 years older than I am.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think that might be your clue right there.

It's a hint thong?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Maybe she has really strong feels about VPLs?
I've gotten sexy bras from the mom and sister, because bras I wear are pricey, and I will say "I want X bra in Y size and Z color for Xmas."
Only good girlfriends attended my bachelorette, so I got pretty underwear and a salad bowl.

Heh.
I love my M-W-F aqua aerobics ladies. I'm finishing about when they start, but they always heckle me and if I finish early enough, we catch up before their class starts. They've been known to make the guards keep a lane until I'm done (normally goes down from 3 to 2) if it is crowded. (They have no compunction about invoking circle swim once I pop out, I've noticed.)
I know all about all their surgeries and kids and grandkids...

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That works.

IO9 ran a "fanfic friday" for a while in which one of their regular commenters ripped a random fanfic to shreds. There was a weak disclaimer saying he likes some fanfics, this is just a bad one.
I remember that one. Annalee really didn't want to stop that feature but when she did I felt obliged to send her a supportive note. It was a quandry for her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Here is why I weight gender in voting: Generally, the candidates for City Council seemed fine, with varying emphases on issues I care more or less about, but none of the ones I knew anything about seemed crazy or bad. As it turned out, one woman got voted off the council after two more didn't run for re-election, and four men got added, leaving just one woman on the City Council. That is not right!
It's funny, though, I bet at least one of the incumbent was voted out by accident, with the preferential voting. It certainly happened to me, where I ended up ranking one of them much lower than I meant to, but didn't care enough to re-do the whole ballot.
