They were pronounced dead on Jezebel the other week.

FAWK.

I try to stay hip to the hyper-feminism, but I guess I'll stick to the Lena Dunham look for now.

I love a guy who looks like he could be on Criminal Minds as either an agent or a killer.

I'm white, boring and shop at Modcloth. Kpop is just for funsies since I lived there and enjoy whipping out dance moves when I'm hammered.

See if you have a Freecycle in your area - that might solve both the old sofa problem and get you a new one - or just exchange problems :P

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

My boyfriend is tipsy on Coke Zero and rye. I've had two bottles of Lagunitas IPA and am fine. Tori Amos is playing; was "Abracadabra" immediately before.

I love Modcloth!

I just wish many of the dresses were 2 inches or so longer, I'm 5'6", but sometimes it seems as though I've borrowed my little sister's clothes or something.....

3/2/18  E-filed N-400 under 5 year rule

3/26/18 Biometrics

7/2019-12/2019 (Yes, 16- 21 months) Estimated time to interview MSP office.

Oh no! I have the opposite problem. I'm 5'1. Dresses always look so long on me.

I love a guy who looks like he could be on Criminal Minds as either an agent or a killer.

I don't wear dresses.

Or skirts.

Or shorts.

Or capris.

I don't wear capris, except for one fateful year - I think it was like 1998.

I wore capris back in... maybe 2004? 2005?

I don't think they're unstylish or anything, I just don't like to show my legs.

Plus I don't shave them but maybe once a year so prob no one wants to see them either.

I wore a dress (as a day outfit) back in... 2009.

No wait wait... I wore one with leggings under it christmas 2011 for work party because they made a dress code #######?

I had to actually go out and BUY one.

And then I saw it had a hole in it, so I had an excuse to return it post-party.

As a NOT outfit, I wore a dress a few weeks ago when we went for a fitting for my sister's wedding.
