You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?  

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Bedskirts are for show.

Nononono. Bedskirts are for hiding crap underneath the bed and not having to look at it. I don't even have a traditional bed frame - just a raised platform - but I still have a bedskirt on it to hide the crap.

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

I just don't look under my bed. Even in the living room, where I lie on the floor a lot, I don't look.

Mildew gets pissier about being ignored, I find. It'll come get you.

Up with the sun

See, I figure as long as it's under the bed, and therefore below my knees, I don't *have* to see it. It's blinvisible!

(I also believe that if a pile of crap is large enough and in a corner, it is no longer a pile of crap. It is valid storage space, cunningly disguised as a large pile of crap.)

What juliana said!

Shower curtain liners are so you don't have to trash or wash your shower curtain. I'm all about that. I love shower curtains. I have two lovely ones, in fact.

I have three shower curtains and only one normal bath/shower to use them in. But I can't get rid of them...they're so pretty!

Also, getting back on topic, just a reminder to New England and New York buffistas that there will be a farewell party for billytea at our house on Saturday, November 6th. Please let me know via email as soon as possible if you plan to attend. I'm thinking this will be very casual--music and food (which hopefully people will bring) and dvd viewing (billytea's choice) and basic good-natured frolicking.

I will post in Press as well.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

No bedskirts here. Really no bedskirts here.

Doesn't everybody do this? I mean, are there people who actually clean their shower curtain liners?

I have the world's easiest shower curtain: machine washable fabric that are water resistant on the inside, and what's more, don't need those stupid hooks. And since we have a freestanding clawleg Victorian tub that requires two curtains, and since I have MS and rethreading the hooks is no fun, well....

Half of what I own is under beds, hidden by bedskirts.

I mean, are there people who actually clean their shower curtain liners?

I wash them in the washing machine with cold water, Tide and bleach and the mildew goes away.

I'd do this, but I'd have to go buy detergent and then risk bumping into Buffalo Bill while running the washing machine in my basement. Spending $9 on a shower curtain seems easier.
