The sun is sliding below the horizon. The warmth I was basking in lizard-like is gone. I am so glad I conned my sister out of this kikoy when we were in Kenya. Normally I don't combine colours much, but despite this having bright green and yellow on a black background it goes with a great deal of what I have, including (I swear) today's purple top. I keep this one in the car for days like this one, where I didn't figure it cold enough for a jacket (but I probably should have).
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

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

This [link] is my hematite ring. We originally gave it to my grandmother, purchased somewhere in NM. When she died, it came back to me.

Man, I gotta remember to shut down my work IM. I'm sorry you had a rough commute home, but I really don't want to hear about it right now.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I love that ring, sarameg.

Thanks! Hard to tell in the picture, but the stone is faceted, and usually looks darker than in that shot.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I don't want to go into reality because I am not gonna see SYTYCD until later, but I am watching The Biggest Loser finale and again I think some people, or at least one has lost too much weight.

That's really pretty. My hematite ring was made entirely of hematite, and was therefore not long for this world. The two rings I ever wear these days--one's a big cabochon garnet in an antiqued silver braid, and the other is a big silver X. I fidget for them sometimes when they're not on, but I never wear them around the house, and I take them off to wash my hands or put on lotion, so there are so many opportunities to lose them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, as I probably could have predicted, I lamed out on the post-election party. Well, I walked in and walked out. My buddy went home to change, and I just could not deal with a room full of people I don't know. Ah well.

When I take this ring and the garnet one off for the pool, it feels weird. I think my neuroticism about having the garnet in the shop was well documented here.

ita, your garnet ring sounds gorgeous. I love garnets. I have a garnet necklace that I bought in Florence that I love.
I don't like most smelly candles, but I do like Pacifica candles. Mmm. Burning Zanzibar Cinnamon Almond right now. My fave is their Mexican Chocolate.
