Mal ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Block party last night was great fun. Today we finished signing all the papers for our refinance of the mortgage. $200.00 less per month!
Jason is packing--he's off for a whole week of travel tomorrow morning. I do have a hot date while he's away--going to the NTLive showing of Cumberwoobie's Hamlet.
We had salmon tonight too. So nom!!!
I had bucatini carbonara and a caprese salad with burrata. We took Mom out, but stepdad chose to stay home and watch football instead. We also went to a very popular arts and crafts fair. We didn't get there early enough and had to park very far away. I'm hurting tonight as a result.
Yay for more money in your pocket, Scrappy! And Hamlet! Sorry about the pain, sj.
I have a fuckload of TV to watch this week. Some of these shows will have to go. But which? Decisions decisions.
Business apparel query: black pleather knee-length skirt with animal print (I want to say leopard but I'm not certain) short-sleeved blouse, too much? OK with the right shoes? What are the right shoes?
-t, I'm in the same situation wrt TV right now.
Achieved 10 minute cone free before the Pumpk started washing her butt! Which is good because I needed to wash the cone after she drank out of the toilet and then used the litterbox. Uhg.
She's definitely more adept at it; less kerthunking up the stairs. She's even mastered a jaunty little head swinging trot I haven't seen before. She does whack me & things with it on purpose....she's really got it in for her bottle of pills. Broke my dish soap holder.
Aw, Pumpkin.
I can't remember; who reads Dumbing of Age? -t, is it you?
It is me! And, yeah, that took quite a turn. Meep.
Also, I just tried the pumpkin ginger mini ice cream sandwiches after they were properly frozen (they were a little melty after being in my car on Friday) and found them very nice. I have not tried making my own out of pumpkin ice cream and ginger cookies, though.

I'm seriously stressed out about it. Fiction messes me up, man. I have to stay up until midnight so I can read tomorrow's strip as soon as it posts.

I think a skirt that length is fine, maybe with flats? You basically want everything else to be understated so as to avoid the I'm-On-My-Way-To-The-Nightclub look. (I know no one uses the word "nightclub," but you get my point.)
I highly recommend making your own, t! With the ginger thins.
I ran a race (which felt awful but was only a minute slower than last month). And then caught up on TV, and hung out with a baby! And it's only 540! Being home all weekend is awesome!
Also, yay refinance! And yum, salmon--Friday when my parents were in town we went to I ar's Salmon House, and dad and I both got the salmon sampler--king, coho, and sockeye.
