after a mere several months of heinousness, finally, FINALLY at least one of my requests was honored. why that took so much effin’ prompting and BS to make it happen when the party of the first part is the party that instigated the issue rising to this level, i do not know.

i STILL don’t understand what the hell went on there in any way shape or form, and i have to accept that i never will. but at least this one thing has been done. the party of the first part is the one that has to live with it. or without it. or whatever. i don’t know cause i still don’t get it!!!!

  • i have not been to any movies in the last couple weeks. i was wanting to see “indy”, i’m sure i will, but my enthusiasm for it has given way to abject trepidation
  • “wait! wait” comes to virginia beach this week! did i mention i have tickets??!?
  • i saw THE scarygary at the hospital yesterday. i think. he is supposed to be gone now! moved away. done. going to elsewhere. maybe that was his last day – rats! who will i embarrass myself in front of now?
  • i made cous cous. and i have eaten almost all of the double batch in like 3 days.
  • looks like it will be beautiful today – wine tasting with in walking distance of my home today!
  • i am missing my massage man – i think i need another appointment
  • my arms/neck/wrists are feeling really good
  • i think walgreens has made good on the error they made on a recent prescription of mine. they are so annoying and i usually always use walgreens. i think i will bre moving all my scrips elsewhere. but i need that 24 hour drive thru.
  • i feel puffy this morning. too much cous cous probably
  • i am going to disneyworld in less than a month on a last minute surprise trip. time to start planning the outfits!

No cuffs dahling! Do you remember G-Girl?

May 2006, cuff became snagged on a bike rack during take off. She face planted herself right there on 42nd St.
Unfortunately her super powers do not include rapid healing. It was weeks before she could apply makeup. She no longer designs her own clothes.

ok. maybe i am the only person out there that this will bug, but a while ago, i bought a stupid pair of seven jeans - it was on sale, they are pricey and all those super designer-y jeans are so dang TINY that they never have my size, let alone on the sale rack – well i bought these jeans and they look really good on me. so good, that i decided i would actually get them hemmed appropriately as they apparently believe someone with my waist size to be about 18 inches taller than i am.

i had a lot of trepidation about having jeans hemmed. jeans are supposed to have just that bottom stitch, no trouser cuff, no freaky unmatching white thread or something. usually jeans end in like a rolled hem or something like that, just the fold over and the seam. its a problem with hemming jeans. but no, everyone from the sales person at nordstroms to the dry cleaners where i took them assured me it will be an edge just like you have now. instead i have this:

do you see? do you see what they did to my damn “i feel hot and skinny” jeans????? UG!!!!!! it is so bell bottom-y flare-esque that i cannot bring myself to look at them dahling. should have taken them to nordstroms and taken my chances there but GEEZ OH PETE!!!!!

i know, they are very dark rinse, not one person will notice, they look like at least its a well done little cuff action going on, but yuck. i had them done pretty damn long still, to wear with heels, so if i go over the edge, dahling, i will just gnaw that whole edge out myself.

ARG!!

 

Two dozen other dirty lovers
Must be a sucker for it
Cry, Cry, but I don’t need my mother
Just Hold My hand while I come
To a decision on it

Sooner or later
Your legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later
Don’t run away and let me down
Sooner or later
You hit the deck, you get found out
Save it for later
Don’t run away and let me down
You let me down

Black air and seven seas and rotten through
But what can you do?
I don’t know how I’m meant to act with you lot
Sometimes I don’t try
I just now, now, now, now ,now …..

Two dozen other stupid reasons
Why we should suffer for this
Don’t bother trying to explain them
Just hold my hand while I come
To a decision on it
