Making a statement about taking your citation style very SRSLY indeed.

So, um..

It was not, contrary to the NYT's prediction, purchased by the time I read the article.

As a freshman writing instructor at Chicago, just wrapping up a rather trying quarter and very much in need of cheering up... well, dear reader... I bought it. I'm not sure whether to hang my head in embarrassment at my utter lack of restraint, or skip around in glee at my super-cool new purse.

One thing's for sure - sensaes, I blame you for this. ;c)

[magdalene1]

It's great! If I'd seen it earlier I might have beaten you there.

[sensaes]

Happy to take the flak. ;o)

[chatnoire]

Go ahead, skip in glee, I think it's brilliant.

[ancarett]

OMG, covet. Covet, covet, covet, covet, covet.

Co-vet!

[maeveenroute]

Those coasters are fabulous! Do post an update if you get more vintage book pages... next quarter is unlikely to be less trying, after all. ;c)

[dreadnought]

I love your coasters! If you get more discarded book pages, let me know - depending on what they are, I'll probably buy some.

[deafdyke]

I can't afford a handbag, but I just bought a coaster set from you :) would love to find any connected to "classic" authors. They make nice gifts!

[twilit]

Oh. My. Gawd. I want one. I'm a guy and I want one.

[sensaes]

Well, luckily for you every single member of this community is broadminded and totally non-judgemental.

Guys with handbags are hot. It shows that they are not insecure in their masculinity and makes us women believe that we, for once, won't have to put up with all that posturing.. ;-)

[sensaes]

Are you suggesting that men can't posture with handbags?

How disappointing.

[saralinda]

It's sort of ideal for those times you have to tote your copy of the Chicago Manual of Style to fancy places.

[magdalene1]

More often than you'd think!

I'm never invited to the right sort of parties.
