    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    My brother likes Souchong. I can't become accostomed to the smoke - I prefer sweet flavoured teas, like strawberry.

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    Precisely, unless you feel like sanding plaster, and waiting two weeks for the dust to die down. Personally, I find white walls too stark, and beige (generally) too boring. My mother always painted our walls in colour, though understated ones. Gives the room a nicer feel.

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    Well, a permanent office job is a whole different ball game than retail, food service, and other part-time or jobs of the like (and I've worked them all). There are many differences, like not listening to annoying music, serving crabby customers or being on your feet all the time, but one of...

    Your beauty mistakes

    The first one that comes to mind is getting powder gel nails. I have nicely shaped, durable nails naturally, but I thought they looked nice, and it would be so easy not to have to paint or file them, or worry about them chipping, etc... But reality has an annoying habit of setting in...

    Does your body change every 7 years?

    The females on my mother's side of the family all say it lol I think it's because I take after the women on my dad's side of the family, who have much nicer figures. They didn't keep well into middle age, though...

    I cheated! And with a co-worker whom I like BETTER! What to do?!

    Not at all, for me personally (but that is probably because I both have background in hairdressing, and am anal-retentive to such an extent that I cut my own hair.) I have never had to worry about my hairdresser "getting" what I wanted because I told her very precisely what I wanted and how I...

    Does your body change every 7 years?

    My mother seems convinced that I'll start sagging before 30 :eeek: I've never heard the theory of your body changing every 7 years. Mine seems to change every 7 hours, what with weight fluctuations and all.

    Thanks! It already has, save for my fax machine :rolleyes: I wonder if Golden Era offices were simpler, with the exception of making duplicates? As Bugs Bunny would surely say: "Heh heh... What an im-bess-il." lol

    That is true. I've had quite a few jobs that I hated, or grew to hate. I can't see that happening with this one, thankfully! Everyone is so nice and funny, and they were such a big, understanding help to me while I was learning (and still am learning.) We even had a company lunch on Friday...

    Destruction of American History: DON'T DO IT.

    I feel the same way you do. I don't know why, but it hurts me when someone doesn't care about an item that a person in the past - maybe someone in their family - cared so much about. Like my father's trains that I mentioned, or my grandfather's phone from the 1940's: He cared enough to keep...

    You poor dear :( I'm glad to know you're feeling much better. I can sympathize about the eye pain - Nothing is worse than eye pain, especially when you get soap in them or jam your mascara wand into one eyeball (both of which I routinely do.) I had one dream this week, and it was about the...

    Back When 'Casual' Meant 'Upper Class'

    Brooks Brothers still sells "casual" clothing for the elite and financially flush. They seem to be the last hold-out.

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    How hypocritical! I'd have been tempted to say "On the contrary - It isn't nearly damaged enough!" while gesturing to her hair ;) Last Hallowe'en, I had so many "great costume!" comments. Some salesgirls in a store were raving about my "costume," and even thought it was cute that I had a...
