Let's see:

'83 S10--bought 1/97 (14 years)
'67 C20--bought 2/99 (32 years)
'69 IH 1703--"bought" 12/01 (32 years)
'76 K5 Blazer--bought 7/07 (31 years)
'89 Caprice--bought 8/08 (19 years)

I've never owned a vehicle younger than 14. Twelve would be almost-new. wink
mistressmissy:
Oh no. Our showers are the same day!?! eep!

Question, if I find out what colors would go with my sister's house next weekend, would that be in time to make her a christmas gift or no? We don't actually see them for gift giving until January usually. I don't know if she'll be up for the baby's coming but my mom can give it to her otherwise. (I wouldnt want to ship that really)

an inability to fully articulate is an inherent symptom of the human condition; my aporia is not extraordinary.

please understand that I would give you every happiness and joy you could ever want if I were able.

I guess it's rude to tell you that both my guy and I have listed our amazon wedding registry in the wishlist place button thingy in our profiles.

I survived the inlaws to be. actually, they were pretty great. now I'm home and I'm making cinnamon rolls, and tomorrow we get to bring the puppy back home.

Why is that rude? Did you not include the registry info in the invitations?

That doesn't make any sense, wacky lady. wink

the biggest disappointment that I have about talk like a pirate day this year is that I will be celebrating my grandmother-in-law-to-be's 90th birthday, and she probably wouldn't appreciate being called a lily livered swabbie.

how about a dusty ol' wench?
syh:
Probably not, no. I think she'd be more confused than irritated. "Talk like a pirate? Why's that?"

yesterday, I inadvertently started pulling up the gross vinyl tile that covers the pretty linoleum floor-- the one installed (most likely) when the house was built, in a time when solid oak and understated coving were not uncommon. when a brick exterior was more than a facade.

oh, yes, I like this house.

my poor boy came home to his house torn to shit and...

My experience is that stuff like that always takes twice as long as expected and costs twice as much as budgeted. This is why I've given up on projects like this. It makes me want to throw myself on something sharp. frown But I think you're onto something with the idea of finishing what you start. I know I'm guilty of beginning new stuff before the original project is done.

Hang in there! Eyes on the prize!

sometimes, days have the potential to be fucking terrible. menstruate through clothing. lock yourself out of the car. forget to eat until 2pm. get a phone call from your hysterical and senile grandmother.

sometimes those days don't live up to that potential.

and you spend a long evening over sushi with sister and mom. you spend the afternoon with wonderful friends. you have a conversation...
