just show me the damn perfumes

I’ve been interested in fragrances for a few years, but I never really moved beyond whatever Tocca my local Anthropologie carried.

Molecule No. 1 was my gateway drug after smelling it on someone at a party. Shortly after that I visited the incredible Tigerlily in San Francisco and was introduced to the world of niche perfumes.

• Alexander McQueen Dark Papyrus - similar to Santal 33 - a very juicy, woody aromatic. A great winter green. McQueen also has, hands down, the best atomizers.
• Madewell Indigo - zero shame. Madewell makes delightful fragrances. This is a sweet sandalwood and very “cool girl

I say “I am a contest winner!” all the time. Nobody gets it, even my friends who watch the show.

Let's think for a minute not of clues and foreshadowing and what we want to happen, but of what makes a good story? This is arguably the most talked about TV show of all time.

Jon - Jon is the main character and the hero of this story. I think he will die after taking down the Night King.

Daenerys - I'm lost here. I'm fairly certain at some point she will have a clear path to the throne, but she will decide to "break the wheel" by not taking up the throne. I believe she will

Clever, ridiculous, issue-based - let's hear 'em all!

Personally, I was thinking of making several signs with direct quotes from Trump that are offensive, ridiculous or both.

However I'm a little worried about job opportunities for myself.

I work in tech. Specifically, marketing and launch strategy for tech and software companies. I am 29 and have a a director-level position at my current company. I would prefer to stay in tech or economic development, but would be open to anything in the marketing/strategy field that isn't drudgery (don't want to do marketing for a law firm, for example).

About 9 months ago my mother passed away. After taxes I inherited around $110k. Shortly thereafter I used some of the money ($42k) to pay off my fiance's student loans. We will be married in July and I wanted to start our marriage debt-free and eliminate a $650/month bill. I'll admit, it was hard to write that check - even though I didn't earn the money I still thought of it as mine. However, I'm very glad I did it and almost never even think about it any more!

My fiance, Danny, works in sales for a young, but growing company. They recently pivoted their business model and are going through some growing pains. But they have put a lot of confidence in him and he is working hard to assist in
