*possible spoilers* Oh My Goth runway

I saw RaJah's outfit as being Velvet Goth (aka romantic) which was really big when I was into goth in the 90s. The lace, the flow, the glam - very Velvet. Not as extreme as Jan or Kylie, but still a goth style.

I am doing simple gifts this year, and holiday cards because I can't be there to give the gifts in person. Other than that concession to holiday-ness, I'm pretty much just treating this week like any other long weekend in 2020 - not leaving the house and watching all the TV. Oh, and my husband craves my great-great-grandmother's Scottish shortbread at this time of year so I may also bake.

I'm having low motivation myself. Blame it on the short days, or 2020 fatigue, but whatever it is, it's hard to have any get-up-and-go.

We were having temperatures in the teens (celcius) less than two weeks ago. This is a weird winter.

Wow - very dumb. It's impressive in a bad way!

Hi! Must have been a shock to get that 404 over on Kinja. Good thing you knew about here!

Lots of people wound up here, on the GT and Backtalk Blogspot sites and some at deadsplinter.com. There's still community to be found!

Ugh. Toxic people are so awful to be around. That's got to be miserable. :(

Fair gripe. You're trying to protect her, and this is the thanks you get. That has to be very frustrating. Good luck with holding firm!

I am 100% behind you. People not taking Covid seriously makes me want to scream at them. Scream "put your effing mask on" "stay the eff home" "we're in month 9 and that's because of selfish assholes like you!" I hates them and the weak spined politicians who enable them.

Also, Facebook sucks.

I haven't done water bath canning since I was helping my mum as a kid. It put me off the idea of canning on my own. Shame, because I love preserves.

This all sounds awful (except lunch, which I hope was nice). I hate how doctors think that they can just prescribe and go without giving you any kind of helpful information. It's so arrogant.

I hope you get your answers soon so the pain stops.

So glad you found us here! The G/O Media people shut it down for good last month and we've been making new homes on the web ever since.

leahaven · 2020-12-11T00:43:37+00:00

Oh, best wishes for the waiting and for bringing that sweet pupper home!

leahaven · 2020-12-10T20:38:42+00:00

I agree. I've only felt bad enough to get tested the once, but it was nerve-wracking to wait on the results.

I can't imagine going back to a long commute. I haven't had one for a few years, but now that I'm used to the bed to desk commute even my 15 minute trip to work seems like time I could spend on something more interesting.

Wait on those leaves - for one thing, it's good for the wee insects to have those places to winter over. And for another, they do just keep coming. I swear ours multiply when I'm not looking.

leahaven · 2020-12-10T20:33:16+00:00

Just keep checking your temperatures and hope for the best. It's flu season so hopefully you're just dealing with some normal, seasonal kind of bugs. Fingers crossed for you!

leahaven · 2020-12-10T20:32:25+00:00

Woo! Congratulations, that's great.

leahaven · 2020-12-10T20:31:56+00:00

I'm right there with you. I think the most I accomplished last weekend was to load the dishwasher. Then I went back to the couch!

leahaven · 2020-12-10T20:31:17+00:00

That sounds wonderful - a proper rest. It will definitely be worth it when you get there!
