I work at Louis Vuitton. I sell shoes. It's why I had to work this weekend, with it being the busiest shopping day of the year. And yes, $150 is worth it in order to not ruin a $400 pair of shoes.

Do salespeople at these fancy stores do well?

I spit sugar free hot chocolate onto my keyboard. We should be lifelong friends.

Knowing both of you, this would either be (i) the best thing since sliced bread or (ii) Armegeddon in ...er... a thong.

Some kind of unholy war?

Better?

Yes, though you should know that I have an unaccountable crush on Seann William Scott.

Nope. Apparently it's all the rage. Or was. I have no idea.

It's still all the rage. There are tons of Stich n Bitch groups out there both IRL and on the net.

There's quite the battle raging now between real knitters and newbies. FWIW, on the knitting equivalent of the FB, everyday is Flame Friday. Damn, those ladies are vicious.

Coltrane - Did you get a frou frou (aka muppet pelt) scarf yet?

If anybody wants links or the thong (yes, there's a boy version too) knit from licorice, PM me.

Not when comparing to dtb's taxi riding "excess." As a good Manhattanite, I don't think dtb owns a car. It's a rational choice, in your case, but you could also live in such a way that makes the car unnecessary (perhaps not where you live, but in a general sense - I could not function without a car where I live, but I could if I both changed jobs and moved into the city proper).

If she and Mr. dtb don't have a car, how do they get out to their country place (and get around once they are out there)?

Critical thinking, my boy.

Also, SD was talking about it a while back, how he didn't like the suggestiveness of the women throwing around the red dots. Frankly, I think all sex-related commercials, from Viagra to birth control pills to that KY warming stuff, are very lame. I wish someone with a sense of humor would make a sex-related product commercial.

There are 2 that were banned from several TV stations as being to "jokey." One has these cute little syphillis viruses running around and I can't find a picture. But this is what people say about that.

Health officials in San Francisco have run up against opposition to an intentionally light-hearted ad campaign aimed at raising awareness about syphilis among gay and bisexual men.

The a cartoon at the center of the controversy shows a cartoon penis and syphilis sores, under the headline "Syphilis sores are spreading throughout the gay community--Get tested for syphilis."

Here's Phil the Sore.


The ads have been described as "sex positive" and "funny," a shift from the city's more somber awareness campaigns against hepatitis and HIV in recent years.

KCBS-TV, the Los Angeles CBS affiliate in Hollywood to denounce recent decisions by almost all local Southern California network television affiliates to reject a 30 second, 'Stop the Sores' paid public service announcement on syphilis prevention and testing, part of a social marketing campaign that features 'Phil, the Sore,' a six foot tall, colorful animated character.

No, she took the class last spring and is thinking about taking Level 2. She has been, off and on, knitting me a scarf though. Whether is it a muppet pelt(?) is beyond me.








Should I take guitar or bluegrass banjo lessons?

muppet pelt - you'll know it when you see it.

bluegrass banjo - I love banjo music

Agreed. I think my neighbors would also be into that.

And that's the nicest thing anyone has said this day aside from my friend's email in which she passed along that my date from last night thinks I'm "cool". Yay!! I am going to pass her a note in study hall later on.

Now you can't buy me meals for 2 reasons, the second being that I can't stomach feeling like a whore to your john.

Actually, I had feared that was actually the first reason, but that you were simply being polite.

In a small way, I think we're making progress.

un·ac·count·a·ble adj.
1. Impossible to account for; inexplicable: unaccountable absences.
2. Free from accountability; not responsible: an executive unaccountable to anyone but the president.

I was using the first definition.
