There's not much to tell. I haven't really seen him that much lately, because I've been working late a lot and also working on location. So I still haven't talked to him. But there's definitely still lots of (silent) flirting when I do see him

In the meantime: my outfit for tomorrow is nearly assembled. I need to choose which shoes I'll wear with my dress. I've narrowed it down to three pair. What do you guys think? The sandals are new, but if I wear them I won't be able to wear tights and my legs are white as milk ... The blue shoes are flats, the brown shoes are pumps.

I love the dress and the pumps. I just bought a very similar dress.

Then we were picked up by our friends for a few hours at their place at 18.30 and returned at 22.35. What did I find when we got back? The door from our sitting room to conservatory was unlocked and from the conservatory to our garden was wide opened.
Just like that...

I don't think that even a cup of Pu-Erh aged will be able to calm me down now. I think I aged for a few years when I figured out what happened.

Chris would have absolutely KILLED me if I'd done that. He's very conscientious about locking things. Me, I'm a lot more laid back about it because I was raised in a small town. We never locked anything when I was a kid so I never got in the habit of it. NOW I am, though - simply for fear of Chris's wrath if we ever got burgled.

Blue Flats have another vote... Love that dress, hon.

Starbuck in my cup. About to board the ferry

Have a safe trip!

Iridal · 06-26-2011, 03:20 PM

everyone for the advice

I've decided on the blue flats, because then I can wear one of those 'soft tan' light brown tights. I'll have to work on tanning my legs a bit so I can wear my sandals with a dress too

In my cup: goodnight tea

If one gets burgled because one's negligence i.e., leaving a door or window open, insurance would only sympathetically smile.

CWatkinsNash · 06-26-2011, 03:47 PM

Wow, I was lax in my MR duties for a couple of days and I missed a shoe discussion?? I always miss the good stuff. I like shoes.

In my cup: Coke Classic, formerly on ice and soon to be on more ice. Later there will be something a little more interesting to drink. But I better eat before I go out or the night will end quickly.

I miss this thread but I've been distracted with other things. I don't like getting behind on the Tea Chronicles.

But surely you wouldn't tell them you left it unlocked?

They would find out.
Locks are intact. Windows and doors are whole.
How else did they get into the house? By what means?

Same here. I'm about to try something new - two parts tea to one part herbal blend fruit stuff. For iced tea. I'll let y'all know how it turns out. Currently in my cup, Taco Bell's version of classic limeade. GOOD STUFF. Chris says it tastes like a virgin margarita. I wouldn't know about that part, but it's good and refreshing.

Oh, I'm what they call "stupid honest" I probably *would* tell them...

The last cuppa of the day.
Second infusion of Baozhong.
The first was fantastic. The second is ....meh.

Tomorrow 29°C

Use the Santa Clause defence.

I'm glad I work and live in a small town. I have only just started locking the doors as times change. But for over twently years I didn't lock the house up and last Friday after leaving work and getting to the car I noticed my wallet on the front seat.

Time for some more "Inner Calmness" Ayurveda Herb Blend.

phenomshel · 06-26-2011, 08:12 PM

Oh YUMMM. My experiment was a success. Normal amount of black tea for iced tea, plus two tablespoons of strawberry herbal from Adagio. Pour boiling water over and let steep several minutes, sweeten, dilute, and pour over ice. Wonderful! Lucky me, I got to try it on a guinea pig, *evil grin*. We had very unexpected company come by in the person of one of Chris's ex girlfriends who lives in the neighborhood. She showed up begging us to let her in because she was scared some lady called the cops on her because her dog pooped in the lady's yard. Did I mention we have cats?

So I fed her the experimental tea.

I am not a nice person.
