My work raises money for St. Jude's hospital. For...
Since I moved to Fancy Street, it has been incredibly harder to get donations; customers spending three times what the clientele at my old store will refuse.
Today, as always, working desk I asked a customer if she could make a small donation to St. Jude’s.
“For how much?” she asked.
I began to explain that any dollar amount is really helpful, but her friend shook her head...

"I know what let's do..."

Oh but I had a good Christmas though!
I like my siblings growing older because now there is less embarrassing profusion of gifts, more thoughtful, useful things. And we took nice family portraits with grandmothers and my dad’s whole half of the family (smaller than my mama’s, the Thanksgiving group).

I need to find a church.
I am going so long between services at this point that each one I attend is constant goosebumps and full throat.

sloanfinley:

i’m an adult and i know things about what matters and what doesn’t and therefore can go grocery shopping for gay liberal groceries relatively* unscathed. when holidayfamilymagictime is over i get to leave this abyss, but what about the young ones! who’s gonna tell them...

my goal
tsuginojibun:
is to be incredibly cool without being pretentious. it seems easy to be cool AND pretentious, to sneer at people who don’t appreciate “the finer things” as you become more and more able to afford them, but fuck that. i don’t ever want to be pretentious, even if i love interior design blogs, fresh italian food, and the way that french and japanese girls dress.
at the end of the day...

"Leap year" in Japanese is 閏年.
That’s うるうどし, which is uruudoshi. Uruu. U-ru-u.
Second-favorite accidentally-silly romanization after 憂鬱・ゆううつ・yuuutsu (YES you can also write yūutsu but where is the fun in that (I know the fun is in “being correct and not semideliberately exoticizing those Asia-squiggles and their accompanying funny sounds”))
Incidentally, the second character is “year,” so the...

In general I understand that boobs are requisite in Classical Art, human form and beauty and whatever. But there is this lovely painting of a demure, serious-faced, dewy-skinned girl in a white corseted puff-sleeved dress, holding flowers in her skirt. She can’t be more than sixteen. There is a gossamer scarf around her neck and the wide neckline is exposing half of one breast, pressed in...
