It's the cover of the album, and it fades into pink. NIce! Excpet that Olivia seemed to have adopted it, has been wearing it all day, and says it HERS.

That's so cute! Coincidentally I am wearing my pink TISL t-shirt today! I don't often wear it either cuz I want it to last. I wear it every month or so and try not to put it in the dryer.

That neckline is beautiful and the dress looks good. I couldn't even wear that style, I have to wear a-line because of the bootay.

Sometimes, if I need to, I wear one of those Nancy Gantz body slimmer thingies, they can work wonders. Nice score on the dress.

I love the pink TISL shirt! I can see how Olivia would want it...it's pink and it looks like it has a fairy princess on it.

I wish I didn't wear my Stevie/Mac shirts so much. I can't help it though. My two from 83 and my RAL shirt of some of my favorites. I've actually been looking on Ebay for the same ones so I don't have to worry about them getting even more worn out than they already are!

It has built in bra top. No, it's green and white beads, the neckline.

Built in bras don't cut it for me. A bra without straps is like no bra at all!

I love it too and I am glad that I splurged on it.

That ring I showed you all is all sold out. It was very popular. I'm dying for it to arrive, I must have my retail therapy!

I'm actually dying for it to arrive, too.

I'm like "I wanna see Suze's ring!"
Sad to hear it was sold out - now, someday, you'll probably meet someone with your ring...

It's sold out...but you got it before it was sold out right? I hope so! It is very cool.

Oh I did, I did! I got the 5 1/2, the 6 sold out while I was trying to submit my order. But I think the 5 1/2 will fit, although I might have to wear it on my left hand. Which may make it look like an engagment ring, but it's my birthstone! Ah well, we'll see.

My roommate is so cute, she's like, "You know, it's good luck to let friends borrow diamonds. Just wanted to let you know."

WildInTheWind · #57 03-04-2005, 04:35 PM

Oh cool! You did get it. Even if it's a little small, I don't think it's very expensive to have a ring sized.

It came today and it fits perfectly! I can't photograph it on my hand though with the equipment I have for instant photos. I'll have to use my SLR in daylight. It is quite blingy and fabulous!

Ironically I went to see Suze Orman speak today at Borders. She has a new book out, "The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous, and Broke" (most of us Ledgies). The book seems great and there is a companion Web site which helps you get things in order one step at a time.

She's quite irreverent in person, she was very funny and charismatic and she is stunning! She almost didn't make it here because of the weather but I'm so glad she did because she is very inspiring. Sometimes I hate her for seeming so perfect.

But she paid her dues, she didn't get a "real job" until she was 30. She's something.

Oh yeah, she told this little story, "I was interviewing with Matt Lauer for the first time and I was wearing a new pricey sweater. He commented on it saying, 'That's an expensive sweater.' And she replied, 'Yes it is, and I can afford it thank you very much.'"

Then the interview started and she was in hot water. She said to never insult your host before being interviewed.

Anyway, blabla, yadayada. I love playing hookey! I highly recommend it.

Omigod, I can't wait to see it!!!!!! Hurry!!!

Yay!
That's cool Suze Orman was good - I should probably get that book...she used to irritate me, though, just cause she was on PBS like, every night? and every day? and every other hour?

That wasn't so much her, though, as seeing her constantly....

Anyways, gotta see that ring, dear.

alot lately for audio cassettes (Which I transfer to flawless compact disc versions)...Can't pass up buying over 100 Mint/Near Mint officially released audio cassettes (The dude who had 'em up for auction must be an audiophile too because they were in awesome condition) and yet only spending about $55 doing so (Excluding the 2 auctions I won last night and the 5-7 I plan to hit possibly tonight)
