The KINGDOM mirror. NEVER KNOW whats on the other end of a Craigslist ad After the Victorian wardrobe salvage sagaAfter spending four hours in an unheated building. After ripping apart a wall with a toothpick. After loading and unloading a truck until nearly midnightPaul told me to stop looking on Craigslist for a while. He said I had reached my quota. Current local time in an extensive selection of cities and countries worldwide, in all time zones with DST accounted for. Links to each city with extensive info on. Race results are hosted by RaceDayTiming. I nodded and pretended like he was the one who made such decisions. Then I went and looked on Craigslist. Now. Three things 1. I have a totally ill advised fondness for anyone named Rocky. Even I can see that a FIFTEEN foot tall mirror may be too large for our house. Its probably total junk. Get up to the minute entertainment news, celebrity interviews, celeb videos, photos, movies, TV, music news and pop culture on ABCNews. There are lots, and lots, and lots of mirrors in the antique listings on craigslist. Half of them are junk. The other half arent even old. Plus, a posting with no photo is USUALLY a guarantee that its not worth your time. So I closed the tab and told myself it was nothing. I certainly didnt say anything to Paul about it. But a few weeks later, I saw it again  and the primordial mirror troll that lives in my head said you should find out what that is.

FOOT mirror into the house And the mirror troll said What if its fancyWhy are you slacking off So I emailed the guy. Did you read that Did you read it closely Is there any description that could possibly be more appealing to me than something that looks like a KINGDOM No. No there is not. The mirror troll was like S. C. O. R. E. And I said hold on, twelve feet is still WAY TOO BIG. The mirror troll saidI bet its not that big. I bet they didnt even measure it. I BET YOU SHOULD GET IT. I was like word. So on Saturday morning, I said to Paul, casually do you want to go look at somethingI think his hair actually stood on end. He was like WHAT No  No, I do notI was like oh, okay, well we could go this afternoon if you wanted to. You know what he said Nothing. NOT ONE THING. That silence USED to make me insane. But now I see it as a stage in the Kbler Ross model of acceptance. Not even twenty minutes later, he saidwhat is this thing you want to seeTo you, this sounds like a question. To me, it sounds like defeat. So.   You can see that this is the smallest house ever. Which did not at ALL bode well for what I was hoping. We rang the bell, and the guy came out He walked past us, down the front steps and started down the sidewalk. Paul saidshould we follow you Where are we going And the guy said its in the alley, under a tarp it doesnt fit in the house. I really wish I had a photo of the look on Pauls face. Paul said what  Excuse me How big is this The guy saidabout 1. Paul saidTWELVE feet I could hear him gritting his teeth. Sucker. Sometimes When Paul is giving me his best stony silenceI just pretend I dont notice. Its way more convenient. I said cheerfullythats NOT twelve feet tall Paul acted like this was somehow not of utmost importance. He saidwhy did you bring me to look at a mirror that was advertised as 1. And I saidI didnt. It was advertised as 1. But I thought they might be wrong. I guess Paul is jealous of the way the universe is my personal shopper, because he didnt even acknowledge that its pretty amazing how I psychically knew this. To cheer him up, I told himthe guy says it looks like a kingdom. Paul said I have no idea what youre talking about. I was likea KINGDOM. Kings  Castles  Have you seen the Vatican AND THEN I was like  I think Im going to have a seizure. The mirror troll saidI TOLD YOU SO. Proving for all time, that you NEVER KNOW what is on the other end of a craigslist ad. Its probably total crap. But it might be this I saidyup. For sure.   I will DEFINITELY be needing that. Lets pack it up. Paul said are you kidding me Are you even seeing the same thing I am And I was likelook at me. Look me in the eye. Do you really believe I am leaving here without this Because Im not. If I have to go on steroids for the next six monthsAnd get a trainer to teach me to dead lift 1,0. I can move it myself This will happen. Paul has this look that he gets. Where CLEARLY he would like to kill someone. But now he is totally inconvenienced because he CANT. Ware Digital Camera Tools. Because he has to move a giant mirror. Obviously, Im fine with murderous irritation its a small price to pay for my everlasting happiness. Besides, its not my fault that the universe WANTS ME TO HAVE THESE THINGS. In fact  It is OUTSIDE MY CONTROL. We went home to get Brians truck and on the way, I texted a photo to my mom. She said WOW  I cannot WAIT to see it in your house I told Paulmy mom loves it Paul said thats because everyone in your family is an insane enabler with no concept of reality. Which is true.   And also why I love them. Whats that Youre thinking this does not look totally reasonable Well, it is. All we had to do was lay it on the bed of the truck. And then use the magic straps which, for about five dollars and a lot of irritation, will do everything including hauling giant bookshelves up three flights of stairs. Which is a whole other post. Then we drove home on I 9. There is nothing like transporting a Kingdom down a freeway, at 6. You have not experienced the meaning of FUN. Until you have done this. Especially since everyone got to listen to me say 4. OH MY GOD I CANNOT BELIEVE WE ARE GETTING THIS. CAN YOU BELIEVE WE ARE GETTING THIS OH MY GOD I CANNOT BELIEVE IT. CAN YOU BELIEVE ITEveryone really enjoyed that part. The guys who helped us get it in the house and will never help us move anything again, because it weighs at least 8. And Im confused by what that question means. Im not going to DO anything with it. It exists.   Therefore it is mine.

Victorias Secret bras dont even fit the models Victorias Secret, for some reason, is hailed as the leader in bras and lingerie in the US. But they carry a very, very limited range of sizes and they have no idea. And while I often hear people make reference to how sexy their lingerie is, 9. Yawn. But poorly fitting bras are not sexy, anyway. And while VS tries to hide it with Photoshop, the bras clearly dont fit the models anywhere near properly. Take a look. 1 you can clearly see her breast tissue spilling out the sides although they have tried to smooth it with photoshop. The center of the bra is not touching her ribcage. What is up with this Somebody screwed up with the liquefy tool, it looks like she has a dent in her ribcage. Again, the center is not against her ribcage the way it is supposed to be. The armpit fat has been removed, but the underwires are not high enough, and you can see that the cups are too small. More obvious armpit fat aka breast tissue that has been weirdly smoothed. The back of this bra is riding up so much The back should always lie horizontal. She clearly needs a much smaller band. Again, the center is not sitting as it should. Once more, the back of the band is riding up quite a lot. Again, more smoothed over spilling breast tissue. In addition, you can see that the underwire is not enclosing all of her breast. The cup is clearly much too small. While they have fixed it, her breasts would have been spilling over the cups four boob style in person. You can still kinda see it. As you can see, although they try to hide it, VS bras almost never fit the models properly. This is problematic. If the images we see all the time of lingerie models dont show a proper fit, how are women supposed to learn what a well fitting bra looks like Between this, and the fact that they have an attitude of superiority and make anybody who doesnt fit into their small range of sizes feel bad about their bodies and as though they are strange, I choose never to shop at Victorias Secret even for non bra items. But luckily there are so many better choices out there. Why would you wear one of the above bras when you could choose any of these Fantasie Elodie Underwire Side Support Bra. D H Ella Bra NavyOrange I love this one Looks so pretty.
