I don't see that at all.

Which is why I'm generally staying out of the fashion discussion.

<--------- No fashion sense.

I've been in that living room!

From which I borrowed a book. Fuzzy, PM me your mailing address so I can mail it back. I forgot to give it back to you Saturday.


done!  Did you get  a chance to read it on the plane?

Thanks for all the compliments, everyone!!! I wanted that coat the first time I saw it, a month ago, but I was  a good girl and waited for it to go on sale.

How was Hildago, Stacer?


Loved it. In fact, I think I might want to own it myself. That and Shall We Dance? which I saw on the plane this morning. I saw the Japanese version several years ago and liked it, and I think the American version with Richard Gere really preserved the feeling of the original. Also makes me want to get out and dance again. I'd kind of given it up in the last few years, both because of my knees (which have affected my weight), and because I'm frustrated with trying to find dance partners. It made me think (once again) that I should just find a class and find partners through the class, like Brenna did when she was competing.

No, I was a good girl and read my homework (except when I was watching Shall We Dance). But I plan on reading it on the T Thursday and Friday, then mailing it on Saturday, if that's okay.

I hate it when my husband makes a big point of taking the cell  phone with him but then never actually answers it.

My mother does that. She'll take the cell phone, but won't turn it on. Kinda defeats the purpose of having one.

I have to say I hate it doubly when it's after midnight and I have no idea where he is.

To Be Good

Im obssessive
A bit possessive
I dont know when to stop and when to be aggressive
Im a mess
Cant handle stress
I dont know when to lie and when to confess

I know I should
And I think I could
Try a little harder
To be good

Im lazy
Often hazy
I dont know when Im sane and when Im acting crazy
Im a crab
All things drab
I dont know when to drive and when to hail a cab

I know I should
And I think I could
Try a little harder
To be good

I&#8217;m obssessive
A bit possessive
I dont know when to stop and when to be aggressive
Im a mess
Cant handle stress
I dont know when to lie and when to confess

I know I should
And I think I could
Try a little harder
To be good
I know I should
And I think I could
Try a little harder
To be good
To be good

For some reason those look like bowling shoes to me.  I guess you'd have to have the right style to pull them off.
