Tracy Curtains

They are. They totally are.

Just "Tracy Curtains."

I knew as soon as I saw them that I had to get them!

They are off-white, sheer, and they have embroidered "Victorian roses" all over them. They are sooooooo pretty! And the curtain rods match my white day-bed.

My bedroom actually looks like a bedroom now!

It was great--Bryan asked me what kind of shelves I wanted in my closet. I told him, then I went shopping for the day. When I got home, I looked in my closet, and my shelves had materialized! They were *exactly* what I had asked for! I couldn't believe *my* little brother had done such an *outstanding* job! Anything I said I wanted, I got. It was fantastic.

Thanks, Bryan! My room looks GREAT!

I think it is so wrong that the older sister has the little ones do all the work. Also, I think it's terrible that you have an outside door in your bedroom.; Mon Dec 12, 05:50:00 AM CST
Restless Native said...: Congratulations. I'm glad you found your curtains! I'm also writing this at work, so you now you can feel guilty that you were the cause of wasting taxpayers' money. It's people like you that cause people like me to goof off at work.
You should be ashamed of yourself.; Mon Dec 12, 11:27:00 AM CST
Tracy said...: ::rearranges hair and flutters eyelashes::

*I* *never* feel guilty.

Besides--why should I feel guilt about providing an amusing distraction for your otherwise dull day at Stress?

::sigh:: Men and their logic.; Mon Dec 12, 12:34:00 PM CST

Unknown said...: Tracy, why did you change your blog identity? Did you feel that "Tracy" just didn't describe you accuratly enough?

Hmmm..... Well, I'll miss Tracy, but this Femme Fascinante sounds quite fascinating.; Mon Dec 12, 12:57:00 PM CST

Anonymous, I suppose you've never noticed, but I've *always* been girly.

Sheesh.; Mon Dec 12, 04:23:00 PM CST

How does a “day-bed” differ from a “night-bed”?; Mon Dec 12, 07:45:00 PM CST
Disciple said...: I guess I just use a regular bed for both day and night.; Mon Dec 12, 08:32:00 PM CST

The Art Explained

The Art of M&Ming is the art of finding the M&M. Your M&M. You have to have the right one. Have to. It's a must. And it's hard. Very hard. There are a lot of Skittles out there--unless you're looking closely, you'll think the 'S' is an 'M' having a bad hair day.

Blue M&Ms are good. They are where the phrase "True Blue" comes from. (Okay, so maybe not, but I'd like to see you prove it.)

Yellow M&Ms...they are good too. Yellow is a happy color. Yellows cause True Happiness.

Green M&Ms .... uuuh ... :::giggles::: Well--Green is the only feminine M&M. M&M in this case does not stand for Mystery Man. I'm not exactly sure what it does stand for.... No further comment.

Red M&Ms are the best. They are the Pearls of Great Price. And they...they are the kind you have to fight for...HARD. They're out there. But they blend in so well with the suffering in the world. So well. But if you wait for them...you're rewarded.

I wrote this poem when I was 15 years old. I would probably write it differently now, but the thought and the feeling are the same now as they were then...

~The Art of M&Ming~
The Art of M&Ming is a special art indeed
For the M&M is not something found upon a steed
The right color you must find
Or surely you will lose your mind
No use pleasing was isn't true
So the color must be blue
But what of them, those who say
"The M&M won't find his way!"
Then the stories we are told
Of knights, strong and bold
Of men who love their women true
But then again, the answer's blue!
And so for you, you have your man
But what of me, and of my plan?
What is the color of blood just shed?
All will say, it is Red
And that will prove which I will wed
The only color for me is red.
Through the dark and through the night
He will come for he will fight.
Unknown to him what his prize will be
May I be made worthy if it is me~

I'm waiting for the Red M&M.
Some people tell me my standards are too high.
But I know they aren't.
I won't settle for anything less than a Red M&M.
He's worth it.
I'm worth it.
