LazyMarathoner - 2008-10-31 2:23 PM Hey Beth, Hey Cat! Just thought I'd drop by and try Nibbs on for size

Welcome - you realise after your first post you are a permanent Nibb now

Works for me!

The only difference between here and the Dark Arts is no Toppage.... 

 

Edited to say - I didnt even try to time this so perfectly.... 

LOL!!!!

(and yes, this is a post of substance )

Do I need to explain why LOL and LMAO are a post of substance again?

They are just as substancial as X2.

More so....

X2

Hiya new Nibbs thread!  I completely missed this.  I started knitting a new project.  Something for me this time!  Finished up Christmas hats and one washcloth for my grandma.  I have two more washcloths, but I'll probably take those on the plane in November.  Hopefully my wrap will be done by my trip in November.

Hi Beth!

I went to try on boots last night, and I couldn't get any zipped over my calf. 

Now I'm thinking about cowboy boots - nothing really over the top, just pretty basic.  Haven't decided yet.

No kidding.  The running and cycling are not helping at all.  It's ok.  I'd rather have muscle and be awesome than wear tall boots.

so I hate that about boots - what is it, that makes shoe/boot makers think that we have sticks for legs?

They were pretty cute with jeans and super comfy.

Who knows?!?  Even the extended calf won't fit.  They give a calf measurement of 15.25" and I just measured my calves at 16".

I have a pair of really, really cool Harley Davidson boots... very simple, brown weathered leather, that are great and definitely similar to cowboy boots in terms of the stuff you'd wear them with.

I had a heck of a time finding high heeled knee high brown and black leather boots that fit but I was very diligent .  

Did you try the boots you were talking about the other day?

Yep.  I got them about halfway up before there was no way the zipper would go up any farther. 

Short boots are probably ok.  I don't usually wear them with skirts anyway.  And I do have a tall pair of slouchy black boots that I could wear if I wanted to.  They just need to be broken in more.

Those look like my Frye boots!  Mine are black and knee high, so they have another buckle towards the top.  Looks like they discontinued them, though.

Since I'm at home I figured proper stemware was in order. Maybe I should order this: http://www.vat19.com/dvds/bottle-of-wine-glass.cfm

So which is classier: drinking out of a GIANT wine glass or drinking straight from the bottle.  If it's straight from the bottle, then I'm all class.

I'd say that's a tie for classiness. You have to be resourceful and work with what you've got!

There is some sort of blackberry service problem that's been going on all night and it's really interfering with my texting efforts. I keep turning the connection on and off, taking the battery out, nothing seems to help. Technology infuriates me sometimes.

I can't believe it's almost the Christmas season. Ugh. This Christmas is going to totally blow. I'm kind of ready for it to just be over with so I can move to my new apartment.
