It has been raining off and on since 5 this morning-we have gotten nearly 2 inches so far...

The squatters in Zucotti park
Were hoping for a winter of kef
With Bloomingidiot’s indifference,
They’d have no cause for grief

With yurts and tents and ample food
Free heaters, blankets and stuff
They’d be warm, stoned and unwashed-
So winter wouldn’t be so tough

But the shopkeepers of Manhattan
Had finally had just enough
So Bloomie threw out the squatters-
Let’s see how long he hangs tough

Ummm.... I look more like an animated tent, actually. Your photo does give one ideas, though!

The spouse said her dress looks like a sofa his parents had in the 60s.

“looks like a sofa”

LMAO! I would have said the cushions of patio furniture-I would like the dress for a garden party type soiree, but not the setting/occasion she is wearing it in.

I digress, but-Michelle Antoinette’s dress would make a pretty hostess gown/caftan-I’d wear it for that. I have a pair of hostess pants in that kind of print, and I’ve worn them for patio parties, etc a bunch of times.
