Shockingly, today I am wearing a dress.

I know, right? And the sky didn't fall in or anything!

Actually I'm wearing it cause I'm trying to decide if it looks ok enough still to take on holiday in a couple of weeks or not. I bought it for S&D's wedding so, 3 years ago. Looking at it now, it is not flattering to the boosoms any longer. But then I am back to feeling most intensely dissatisfied in relation to all matters physical and aesthetic anyway. (That is, I feel fat. I AM fat, but some days feel fatter than others. I had a dream last night where Dawn French was on TV showing how she got down to a size 16 with seemingly no effort and then for some reason my teeth were suddenly covered in a gross, peeling layer of gum and skin that was so offputting that when I woke up the first thing I had to do was go and brush my teeth just to get rid of the feeling. But that's beside the point. Probably.)

I need to start walking more places again.

Now if I were to wer a dress, the sky would fall.

I had forgotten exactly how uncomfortable I feel in one. In an actual physical discomfort sort of way, rather than psycho-social awkwardness.

what is that picture from?

Yup, that one. Don't think I've seen it before. I like his hair.

It was posted on the board not so terribly long ago. The press release was pretty recent though the photo looks to be from before the first haircut.

Wait, wut?

You wanna talk weird dreams? I was coming into Europe (started out as somewhere like Amsterdam, then [after an establishing shot of a map - yes, some dreams are like movies] turned out to be Poland [POLAND? WTF? Why the F would I ever want to go to Poland?]) and somehow, while trying to sneak (I guess) into the port, I wound up on a pylon out in the water, too high up to survive a jump and I knew if I did survive I would soon die from hypothermia in the cold water...and there was no way for me to get down, but I was close enough to shore that people in the disembarking area were waving cheerfully to me...

And I realize that is a ridiculously long run-on sentence, and one hell of a f'ed up dream. I also realize it has no relation to anything here. :P

Hey, at least you didn't spend your dream-time being freaked out by your own teeth or envying Dawnie French's (comparatively) flat stomach...

[deke.livejournal.com]

No, I spent it all hanging onto a cold (and really, really high) pylon - presumably in the North Sea - offshore of POLAND. :P

They sky didn't fall but I now know who to blame for a fucking earthquake in Ottawa felt as far away as Kentucky, USA, where I was visiting. Thought it might have been supernatural homage to my perfect new grandson. Alas, it's only you mucking about with the natural order of things. Only kidding, of course.
