There are too many people to quote to do a real quote, and I am not doing any code.
Carolina Cutie: My friend is a school teacher in a remote Native Alaskan Village north of Nome, you fly to Nome, and then take either snow machines or 4 wheeler ATVs to get there in the winter/breakup, or a boat in the summer. I went to visit her and I did wear a Lilly Dress and matching handbag to the dance that was held. I was overdressed but then again as an outsider I was a guest of honor and a complete form of entertainment for the village. I only rock the Lilly in the summer though, May through Labor Day, just like linen items, open toed shoes, straw handbags, and of course any white shoes. I don't like the belted sweaters as they remind me of my mom in the early 80's, and they make some people's behind larger than life, mine included. I admit to wearing Keds with my cropped pants in the summer, and I have these really cute Nike canvas casual shoes I am waiting to wear. Shoes and handbags need to match each other and the outfit...however I have a navy suit I bought cheap, and I do admit to black shoes the one time I wore it. It is Alaska though, the people in Carhartts, flannels, and sporting mullets won't call me out. This lady next to me at the ballet had on a tie dye shirt, ripped stained Carhartt orange work pants, polar fleece leopard print socks, and birkenstocks. My then boyfriend the West Point grad, couldn't believe this place. Oh yes, ixnay on the pyjama pants anywhere but to bed or a fire drill, but that's just us.
smiley21: I like a vanilla latte, I just like a lot of milk in my coffee
Dionysus: here here for the over diagnosis and prescribing of America. My father was terminally ill with lung cancer, he subsequently died, the health center pushed pills on me as if grief wasn't normal and healthy???
TKE209Sweethrt: You read my mind on the visors thing. I saw some kids waiting for the school bus with the visors on upside down and backwards. I asked my students why people did this and they said "because they're stupid" they earned major points today. I also know what you mean about the gaining weight thing. I gained weight on my bottom half and did this amazing thing called buying new pants. When I sell clothes at work I am honest in a tactful way. I think that if something is unflattering, and they ask my opinion, I am going to tell them.
