    What's for Dinner?

    I'm thinking it will either be chik'n taco (in a fried flour tortilla because I'm weird) or quesadilla, or chili because HD mentioned it.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    OK, I have one: life insurance commercials that play on people's fears. I understand that beneficiaries have to deal with burial and such, but no company can legally force them to pay the deceased's credit debts. Some company comes after me for my mom's remaining bills? My answer will be "no".

    What are you wearing today??

    Patrick, for a while I have been wondering why you look familiar. You look like one of my cousins did when he was in his late 20s.

    Ladies, what are you doing this evening?

    That line did it; I really did LOL. As for me it was a comedy of errors. The first time I went to cover the cafe I was washing dishes and gashed my finger 1/4" deep, right on the pad. I had to leave a long line of customers to take care of it while my coworker hurried over. The second time...

    5 red lipsticks for $10.50

    I found some boxed sets at Forever 21. The tubes are short--perfect for a pocket. The formula is pretty pigmented but not too matte nor too shiny. This is it, but the set I bought (red/brick) isn't shown...

    Ladies, what are you doing this evening?

    ^ I love all those foods. I'll be fixing the straps on my t-strap pumps (maybe) and definitely working on getting the lipstick stains out of my coat (oops). I got a lot out with rubbing alcohol this morning and I think the stain spotter should get the rest. Other than that, I haven't had...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Laughin' my fool head off at Abbot and Costello's Jack and the Beanstalk. Sixty-two years later and those gags are still hilarious.

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    *goes off to google to look for insolia* Thanks! Oh, I forgot to say that I got these also: http://www.amerimark.com/angel-steps-sybil-pump/160101.html?viewadult=yes They are more comfy than the other ones. Of course the left shoe fits a bit too loose, but I have a half-size difference...

    Because sweet intensifies savory/salty and vice versa.

    What's for Dinner?

    Had a grilled stuffed taco and wished I hadn't. It was too much starch and now I am overfull.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I think too much junk does make you fat, but for different people different foods are junk. For instance, a lot of dietary fat will make some people gain weight, but I eat an unholy amount of cheese and cream I don't gain back anything I lost. I mean, at times I've eaten over 2,000 calories in...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    I just got some t-straps from Amerimark and I can't return them because I wore them. First time out the heel plate crumbled and now the left heel is bare. *sigh* Well, they're at the shoe repair until next friday. I figured that even if I decided to send them back anyway, I'd lose at least...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I just started "The Children" from the late 70s. I know all the stores have Christmas full-stop, but my brain is still on Hallowe'en and I'm doing horror movies this week. Sunday afternoon might be a horror-thon while I do my weekly cooking/sewing/laundry-thon (the true horror, haha).

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    As a retail employee I apologize. Actually, I'm supposed to talk about the stupid survey and I never do. Don't put my name on it either. If I did, they'd know who to blame. As a customer, if I want to give feedback to a company (which I try to do when it's positive--not enough of those...

    This or That

    Did I do that wrong?

    This or That

    pocket watch--things on the arm are bothersome. Silent film or juicy pre-code drama?

    In the middle of It Happened One Night. I've never seen it.

    Show us your vintage knitting and crochet!

    I can't knit. My hands don't work that way. But I'll gladly use the double-ended needles as hair pins! (Bend them into u-shapes.) I can crochet but rarely get around to it.
