Soooooo...Odin demands the horseflesh be well tenderized then?

So tender you could eat it with a straw!

Why do you think he gave his son a giant kitchen mallet?

When's the best time to visit the non-AmeriBritannia?

That depends, but I'm going to say "not now", since we have horrible weather :/.

 

[Takhisis]

That'd depend on what part of non-AmeriBritannia warpus wanted to visit, I'd say.

I sent in another misheard lyric to the radio station, and they featured it.

(In Golden Earring's "Twilight Zone," I misheard the line "storm on the loose/sirens in my head" as "sardines in my head." Must be a bad case of swimmer's ear.)

I bought some new clothes. My feet have been feeling a little frigid lately, and looking through my drawer, all my old tights and stockings are in bad shape (I haven't worn them for years), so I ordered myself a few new pair. While shopping online, I decided to get myself a new pair of basic black pumps, I just want something basic and dressy for Christmas. And then I got a little daring, and I bought my first ever mini skirt, I've literally never had one before.

So now I'm a little excited to try a new look, and I realized since I've just been seeing my fiance since April, he's never seen me in stockings, so I'm really looking forward to his reaction. I feel like it's been such a long time since I've looked forward to getting a guy's reaction from my dress, I'm feeling a bit of a rush right now

I'm thinking of going to get my hair done too, we'll see how I'm feeling!

I love hearing a song through good headphones for the first time, especially if it's a lossless copy. Sometimes you notice things that don't come through as well on the radio speakers.

My solution to cold feet was sock-slippers; they're the best. I had to order them online because apparently 'clog' type slippers with hard soles are the only things available locally. If I wanted a real shoe sole I'd just put on real shoes!

Miniskirts are amazing.

And then I got a little daring, and I bought my first ever mini skirt, I've literally never had one before.

I haven't worn a mini in years. At 48, I'm a little long in the tooth for it, though my legs are still good and toned. I could probably pull it off, but someone would say "Look at her, what is she trying to do? Recapture her youth?"

But you go, girl. Turn some heads. And send us pictures when you get all dressed up.

My mother would have used the phrase "mutton dressed as lamb".

My mum wouldn't have been so charitable.

Tomorrow is my (second ever) lecture in Athens, this time about kafka, near the acropolis museum. First was two months ago, about poe, part of a lit festival.
I think it will be nice

Small rave of sorts: I mistyped "flower children" as "flower chicken" and cracked up at the mental image.

Oh boy, someone should have told me earlier that you don't need to have a facebook account for Tinder anymore, and that you can sign up with only a phone number . (yes, still privacy issues, but I'll accept that for now).

Have you ever listened to an album called ‘Listen to the Flower People’?

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

The name doesn't sound familiar, so I'd say no.

 

[Takhisis]

The reference might be a bit obscure, but it's by these guys. I strongly suggest you watch the film, althugh to some it might seem dated.

The downside: It's still Tinder

Indeed. You might just end up dating a nice German girl who's been recently dumped over the Internet by her boyfriend who works in the Netherlands. Be careful.

Or spend inordinate hours not getting matches. Much more time efficient to meet in person.
