The Litter Box
Friday, 23 July 2010

I now have a very nice MOG dress with serged and pressed seams, a nice long skirt with a slight fishtail in the back, bias bound armholes and a fully faced neckline.  Now I am adding some metal and satin woven decorative tape to ouline the diamond and to give a little extra shape to the deep V in the midriff. Once the trims are added I can then hand sew the lace skirt overlay.  Then the dress will ned to hang on the dress form for a while so the seams can sag and then I can hem it.  After the wedding i can take off the lace overlay and have a nice bias cut satin evening gown.

So that's a picture of the perfect shoe for my dress. I found them yesterday atthe mall, but sadly they were too narrow for me. If it wasn't going to be suich a long day, I might be willing to suffer, but the last thing I want is sore pinched toes from 12 noon to2 in the morning. Here's the shoe in its natural habitat, the shoe store website  Maybe I'll buy the size nine.  Which is worse flippy floppy too big shoes or too tight shoes?

The only thing I did buy for myself was some really boring cotton everyday undies from Zellers.  Every once in a while everyone needs to replace the boring cotton everyday undies. And when Zeller's sells ten pairs for for a dollar there's no way I can make them as cheaply. And no way I'm spending three times as much at LaSenza.  I also got a card for digital tracks and ringtones to put on my phone.  I hate buying digital music and ringtones.  I feel like I'm not buying anything of substance. Zeros and ones are not things of substance. 

This next ring, however; is not a tone and has a lot of real substance:

All it lacks is the etching of a gold ring on the left hand. It's being sold as a "Modern Claddagh Ring" by someone who has never ever seen goatse.  Don't look it up unless you wish to scarred for life.  Confession: I think I goatse'd the aardvark man.  It was at the time he followed my blog on the computers at the local library while doing those Q's and A's about the furry grey guy, and I knew he loved the "something awful" photoshopped comic book covers link I had earlier, (according to my source he just about burst his spleen) so I put a link to collection two in an entry.  Only it wasn't to collection two, it was to goatse. The real link to SA was in the next sentence. Most experienced surfers know to look at the bottom left hand corner of the browser before clicking links, but he still innocent.  I corrupted his innocence.  The only unfortunate part of that was I also goatse'd a bunch of others, like my hubby, my Mother in Law, and my brother.

Back to the ring: What the hell were they thinking?!? And why does mr goatse no longer disgust me?  Have I become that jaded? Or has my over ten years on the web merely numbed me to the horrors life can contain? Although the first time I saw it I was quite shocked.  Since then I've seen much, much worse, even worse that tub girl, SWAP.AVI  (that's what SA called two girls when I first saw it) in fact a few things that makes the merry old gentlemen of lemon party seem quite tame. 

And that's all for today.
