Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I used to wear a lot of red, usually with black. It's a good, strong, contrast. Trinny and Susannah ... well, to each her own.

What color is the embroidery, ita? Or is the whole skirt brick red?
I admit, I am wearing brick red shorts. In days past I have worn them with a rust orange shirt. Today I am wearing them with a shirt that is patterned in flowers of faded red, brick, and blue, on a tan background.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What color is the embroidery, ita?
The embroidery is the same brick red, just shinier.
I am dressed the same colour as my car, for those who have seen it. It's a pretty close match.
I agree with Trinny and Susannah more than most fashion people about shape, but NSM about colour. But I am severely limited in the colour realm. I lack imagination when it comes to colour mixing, unless it's pre-done for me in a pattern. At which point I will wear some pretty strong stuff without a bit of concern.
Wait--do T&S think I shouldn't be wearing miniskirts at 42? Because they can bite my middle-aged ass, if they do.
I have purchased my Captain America T-shirt for the movie. I hope Polgara will still go with me, even if I am Dorkus Comicus Maximus. It's my first Marvel logo tee. And I've never bought a Captain America comic. Just...Wolverine and Storm don't have logos, you know?

With attitudes like yours, it's amazing that anyone gets voted into office. Get radical, man!
As for Strunk/White--I am such a delicate flower that I can't even read obviously parodic RPF. I'm beginning to think something is wrong with me, the speed with which I backclicked away from that excerpt. IT'S JUST SHITS AND GIGGLES, ita.

Argh, I'm at work and can't watch the World Cup, but I'm reading the ESPN live chat. STRESSFUL.

I just spent way too long with a supervisor at Amazon customer service explaining why the rep who called me "Lizzie" was rude and insulting.

World Cup Spoilers:
If the US can hold on for the next twelve minutes--eh, who am I kidding? They're getting out-shot 3:1. They'll never survive overtime at this rate.

And... over!
Spoilers: France apparently out-played the US for 2/3 of the game, but the US came back in the last 20 minutes and won 3-1. US is in the World Cup Finals for the 3rd time.
