Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

Punishingly Intricate

I want the front room of the new house to have two walls painted in the darker peacock blue and then all the furniture chocolate brown.

LOVE!!

We do have a great vet! And I saw one of the adorable vet techs out at brunch this weekend. So sweet!

I need to focus on things like this and not the things that are sending me from 0 to ENRAGED these days. It would be better for my head.

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

That's way sophisticated design, msbelle. Looks great.

Crinolines today. People will think I've lost my mind.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, I was going to say this yesterday, ita -- it's about performing female rather than just being female.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

and now I am earwormed.

sooooooo phisticated.

I am really excited to have the luxury, and I realize it is a luxury, of potentially having ownership months before move in so I can paint and think about rooms before the full on stress of moving stuff.

I think I will be making a few trips to the Indian fabric stores in my hood also to find fabric for curtains, pillow, and sheers.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

We need pictures, ita.

I don't know what "performing female" means.

I don't know what "performing female" means.

Oh, huh, cause it was a total "aha" phrase for me. Because I really don't/can't do girly on a day to day, but I do love to put it on sometimes (see: prom) and it does feel very much like costuming.

Because books.

msbelle, I LOVE that color palette. My comforter is those colors, although only the lighter blue with the brown.

Like drag queens, but I think it's about makeup and fancy dresses and a lot of other things, too. I am no feminist theoritician, so I can't necessarily articulate it, but I think it's about consciously dolling up in a way that screams "lady" in our culture.

That makes sense to me now, too. That's very much me.
