Day Three Hundred and Eighty Seven

If my book had just one letter it would be "why"?

And no, I'm no saint, but tell me who is

When even you won't pick up or assess

A soul that's in need, a soldier on her knees

who's calling on Krishna, or any deity.

Yeah, whoever's at home, God we both know

you're never too far from your throne,

And I've been living on air, singing my prayers

To busy signals and scriptures that don't give a damn.

Oh, poor is Job, with nowhere to go,

And Lord, I know I'm not, but I feel as old

As these listings, outdated, with no sign of a savior

Anyone else watch Casual and just really not like Laura?

...The ritual of dressing is minimized in modern, fast-paced culture, but it continues to fascinate Meyer. She says taking time to dress and to carefully select body adornments not only reveals a lot about one’s personality but also affects thoughts and actions, even a person’s posture and choice of words.

"For example, a higher class lady in the Elizabethan period would wear, generally in order: hose, a full length chemise, a corset, a bumroll, a farthingale – also called a hoopskirt, an underskirt, an overskirt, possibly a partlet, a bodice with removable sleeves, possibly a separate ruff collar, a biggins or snood, a hat, shoes, gloves, jewelry, a pouch or basket, a fan and a pomander. Bloomers are added for modern hygiene/convenience," says Meyer.

"When you go through this process of dressing, you can’t help but hold yourself differently."

This is, in part, why Meyer is a member of the Milwaukee Steampunk Society, a group of individuals who enjoy attending public events together while dressed in steampunk fashion...
