Faux Paux
1. Is that how it's speeled? How can something be spelled like that but be pronounced foo paw? Anyhoo, I have a fashion faux paux today. I wore white shoes before Memorial Day. I know, it's shameful! I apologized to the guys in the smoke shack today and they said they'd try to forgive me.
2. Moving is awful! I've moved 99% of my clothes, 99% of my garage stuff and tools. I also moved all my bedroom furniture and the kitchen table. Oh and 99% of my kitchen stuff. The rest, which is a lot, I could probably live without. Why do I have so much stuff.
3. I have my favorite rings on today. They are sapphires set in white gold. Two of the rings are a dark blue, the other a more medium blue. I'm going to try to sell some of my rings on e-bay, once I figure out how that works. I bought too many and I need some cash.
4. I just found out (last night) that my hanger-on boarder (he was living there with my sons) is still on heroin. WTF! He told me that he quit. My sons are a lot like me and my sister in that we never tell secrets until we get mad. My son was quite upset with him and spouted all kinds of stuff. For some time now I've been, gently, telling him he has to leave. He's had many excuses and has told me many times he was going to stay with either his dad (another city up north) or his mother. I do have trouble kicking anyone to the street. The homeless population is bad enough. But he has to go. As soon as he comes out of his room when I'm home I'll get stern. Being home feels good, abeit with a few problems like this.
5. My Dbf and I are still "seeing" each other. He has turned into the nice, kind, thrifty, helpful, cheerful boy scout that he was before we moved into his house. Men!
6. Someone keeps buying hand lotion and putting it in the restroom at work. It's a nice gesture but I never use it. Do you think people are using it before they wash their hands? Or using it and not washing their hands?
7. I just went back and put this in list format!
8. Seattle is probably out. I was so excited. My money situation has taken another turn downward. Plus there are only a few peeps going that I'm dying to meet.
9. Who was the "bitter old hag". I never figured that one out.
10. Over there, do you call each peeps and invite them to a thread jack? I can be there various times and nothing is happening. Then the next day, or later in the day, I see there has been all kinds of hilarity going on. I don't have much snark anyway. My brother found me hilarious, a few close friends do also. But in general, I'm too serious. Do you think Weltek and Bravie can refer me to a church that will help build my snar-i-ness?
I think I have to stop at ten, plus this.

Whew, you had lots to say! I like that.
Glad your move is almost complete. I vote big yard sale before you bother moving the stuff. Of course BF is shaping up. Hopefully it stays that way. Maybe in a few years you can try living together again.
Ebay is super easy. Just make sure you put a starting bid at the very very lowest you'd accept. Keep it up as long as possible, and put clear pictures up. Then just keep on top of checking for questions (you can click a box to make the question public so you don't have to keep answering the same question from buyers).
Geg is the BOH referred to. It's no secret, I might as well just say it.
I don't think people would bother to use lotion if they don't bother to wash their hands.
I always miss threadjacks, too. Or sometimes I just can't be witty, so I don't bother.
WAHAHAHA! on Seattle. I know, it's hard to committ the cash when there aren't a ton of peeps you are dying to meet. It's a pretty expensive trip, but Seattle was on our "must go" places list anyway. I'm looking forward to meeting some new peeps. That part was nice last time. I got some pleasant surprises. And there are a few repeat meets that I'm very excited about.
Lotion in the ladies restroom - we keep a lot in our restroom here at work because the soap that is provided is very drying.
It's faux pas... and it's pronounced foe pa.
Nutz <--- took 7 years of French. :D
