Yeah, I'd go for straight up clarification.
ION, I think I need to seal up the whole goddamned threshold. Why is it that it stood up to Irene, which pounded from the house from the west, but not this? I taped bags over it and except for the fact the leak returns when I am up there tinkering, it stops once secure. Meh. At least I have a new downspout and that leak is fixed...
Thank god I love this house and hood.
Would you like it if you went out for a drink or coffee with him?
I think so. I've only chatted with him a couple of times. I know he is a Mike Rowe fan (always a good sign). Oh, and K-Bug took him some of my ginger cookies and he loved them.
Then I rah rah in your direction that it leads to coffee or a drink and, if you get along, more. Plus, he likes your cookies.
Happy to report that I now have only 3 Christmas presents and a few cards left to buy. Today was very productive on the shopping front, and the mall was eerily uncrowded. Like, fewer people than I ever recall seeing in the food court. It's the first time I recall breaking off Christmas shopping because my bags were getting uncomfortably heavy rather than due to murderous frustration with my fellow shoppers.
I think I'm actually done shopping, even for stocking stuff. No, I need to figure out something for my dad. I'm considering Heifer International, just need to decide how much/what animal.
Goats are very popular.
Ugh, I still have to shop. I am in denial. Grinchy, grinchy denial.
Yeah, was under deadline, so about to begin my holiday shopping
I haven't really started Christmas shopping yet, and yes, I'm panicking about that.
I kind of have to put in an appearance at my work party tomorrow. I'm planning to wear a gray dress. Would teal tights and purple shoes be too much business on top and party on the bottom? Teal tights and a metallic heel?
The purple shoes are a dark suede, and look a bit boring with black tights.
I'd say teal and purple. But I should admit that, if I didn't wear a lot of gray, I'd maybe channel the Joker. Still, I think it'd work. Green things (I don't want to say "teal") and purple things totally contrast in a good way.
I would just add something bright or a little funky up top, like earring or necklace or scarf.
