You must have looked pretty dolled-up to get such compliments. ArrrOOOOO!
-
Hey, I just noticed your new name! Cute!
-
Mmm, I'm a fan of Monsieur Bourdain. With his love of good food and wine, he seems very carnal
-
Yuck for the crusty heels. But how were the shoes?
-
It's hard to be peppy and perky when it's brain-meltingly hot outside. Bah!
-
No problem! I'll definitely keep an eye out for that lunch box. A Quest!
DH found the listing for the 2nd one online, so maybe your paper would do that too. I don't have to talk DH into going to estate sales as he likes checking out the old houses -- what condition they're in, the neighborhood and price, etc. We're not looking to move, just nosy

Yes, circe_blue, that was one of the clueless mothers. I did laugh when the financial advisor made her go into her daughter's room and count bras She had like 26 nice bras from Victoria's Secret. The mom just yelled, "You have 26 bras! You have two boobies!"
About a year and a half ago I had my credit card number stolen and used at a trendy jean store. What really floored me was someone paid $160 for a pair of jeans. I felt like adding that to my affidavit to the credit card company: "And I would never pay $160 for a pair of jeans! My wedding dress was $100!"

I love "Werewolves of London"! Your idea is better than mine -- ArrrOOOO!! I have the cartoon on laserdisc and can get a screenshot if minilux wants one It's pretty famous and probably easy to find.
And I didn't know that's where Joe Perry Bait came from: Loviatar and Smut
-
OK, so here's a glimpse into how my mind works; I apologize in advance. Hang onto those hats and glasses!
You say Smut E. Coyote, and I think of an old Warner Bros. cartoon that Tex Avery did, one that hasn't been shown on regular TV in years, called "Red Hot Riding Hood." It was basically a burlesque show in cartoon form (1940s) with this cute chickie singing a song and all the guys in the audience turn into wolves, slobbering and hooting and hollering. A classic shot that's been duped over and over (including Who Framed Roger Rabbit) is a wolf watching the show, and his eyes project out of his head, and he says "AROOOOOGA!!!"
So there's my suggestion: AROOOOOGA!
I know, I'm no help at all

I'm enjoying the mental picture of valentina lighting the tampon string and smirking as the person tries to outrun the fuse
-
Then again, maybe I'm happy I don't have too many photos.
Tell me about it -- I had some weird ideas of what looked good, including borrowing a guy friend's barbershop clippers and, yeah...
I did like the photo album, darkity! I say keep the Benatar and get a "hooker wig"
-
Everything looks great! I'm especially enamored with the pepper plant, it looks like it's really doing well and enjoying itself
-
I like Sacred Whore of the Prairie, personally. Remember, too, you can put whatever title you want in your signature! How about "Phantom Joe Perry's Ho-House on the Prairie in the Phallus"?

From what it sounds like, this woman is being repeatedly hit in the head with the karma clue-by-four, on top of being repeatedly bit on the butt by the Karma Ariedale, and she still hasn't received the message. Sucks to be her.
Thanks for posting this -- there are a lot of good points I have to remember

Ah, another Zen moment from valentina! We had talked before about "drama-llamas" (termed by darkity) and how some people are addicted to constant drama. If they're not involved in some stressful situation, they'll create it themselves.
Pet-people seem to be more mellow anyway.
-
I have a mental image of darkity as Ms. Magoo, talking to lampposts and hatracks Mine's pretty fuzzy for far-away things (is that nearsighted?).
Boss Lady got lasik a few years ago and it didn't really work out. From what it sounds, one eye is a bit better but another is the same. So she needs glasses anyway! Why bother?
Anyway, grilled food and sangria sound yummy. When do we eat?
-
Oh good lord. Nothing like celebrating the birth of our nation by trying to set the neighbor's house on fire I'm very glad y'all weren't hurt.
-
Yes, I inhaled, but don't tell anyone At least with my poor non-smoking technique, I inhaled as best as I could. It's not anything I'm dying to try again, but I do want a pipe, or one of those hookahs that everyone sits around.
I wish I had a big house and could do different rooms in themes -- one would totally be the Opium Den, with fabric on the walls, pillows on the floor and everyone could lounge.
-
These recipes sound great! I love drinking and, um, eating too
Rachael Ray is a favorite cooking host of mine -- I like her travel shows too, because she's always really enthusiastic about where she's visiting, without being cheerleader-y and irritating. Plus she has great catchphrases -- a guy friend of mine really likes her (he watches 30-Minute Meals with his 10-year-old daughter, who tells him "you should marry her!") and I'll bust out the "YUMM-O!!" every once in a while to crack him up.

I'm keeping a cheery thought for The Mister
And a for you
-
Your friend is insightful -- you're cynical because you're romantic, if that makes sense You can appreciate the ideal, but when that inevitably falls short you have to buffett yourself with cynicism. Hmm, that sounds like me too, except throw "occasionally pissy" in the mix
I picture you sitting amongst your menagerie, like Snow White in the woods, with dogs at your feet and a bird on your shoulder and a cat in your lap.

Thanks for the update! Puddin' Tom sounds like he has it made in the shade.

I'm so sorry this is happening. Why are weddings so stressful? They're supposed to be fun, dammit!
Just try to stay focused on why you're going through all this: to become married to the wonderful man you found. We got married in Vegas at the Paris hotel, and had a little reception afterwards with cake and hors d'oeuvres ("horse dovers" as we fancy folk say). Mom asked me later if I noticed the cake was crooked! It wasn't on tiers, but 2-3 layers stacked on top of each other and was tipping over a bit, and I never even noticed. So there's the importance of the cake at our wedding.
One other thing: black frosting, while it looks cool on a cake, is a bad idea at a reception, because it stains everyone's lips and teeth and the pictures come out real ghoulish-looking. Unless that's the look you're going for

I prefer reading everyone's blogs to little posts too. I would start to post too-long responses in a thread, then get dismayed that I'm boring everyone else to tears and would delete it So I much prefer to ramble on in my blog; if people think it's entertaining, great! If not, who cares? It's entertaining to me.
That was a bit off-topic -- I do agree with you about the forums too. I don't think it's age necessarily, but there is a level of maturity that comes from people who are out of school and have been working in the "real world" for a while. I'm not claiming to be mature but there's a certain entitlement mentality of some who are still in school, like that's their "job" and they deserve a certain lifestyle on top of going to school or living at home.
