I tried dress shopping today. Amazing LACK of dresses in the department stores. Also, with all the breast implanting going on these days, I wonder where those people shop. Oh yeah. Places I can't afford. Argh. I'm probably a 12/14 on the bottom half and 16+ on top and the net result is not pretty. Sigh. Well, I have another month or so.
Have fun tomorrow, msbelle. I'd go for maximum comfort both physically and mentally.
In the 3 hours I was gone,, my apartment jumped from 75 to 80. I think the compressor must not have cut in at one point. It's working now but....
Can I just hand in my grownup card? I'm really tired of being one.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
well, I only plan to be outside for the walks to and from the subway tomorrow. Those should be about 7:45 and 6:15, so not the hottest parts of the day.
I am leaning strongly towards a grey suit with a black pima cotton tee, and ditching the jacket for the walks. Because I am not quite right about clothes, I am laying out the full week, trying to make sure I don't duplicate looks or colors too much. me=teensy bit anal wrt to clothes.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Won't linen wrinkle horribly? Or have I bought the wrong kind of linen? I have pants that look fabulous and summery for about ten minutes. Which doesn't mean I won't wear them, I just accept that they wilt and wrinkle fairly easily.

linen does wrinkle horribly. But it's linen and that's what it is designed to do. So I just don't worry about it and wear it anyhow.
I love linen becuase when I am wrinkled as I so often am I can just sheepishly shrug and say, "linen."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I do like that about linen too. It's got its own excuse.
Silk, on the other hand, makes me feel quite anxious when it wrinkles, as it always does. Love it to bits, though.
Kat, I didn't go, so feel free to drop by around 5.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ditto. It's not my fault! It's just linen!

Linen cotton blends can be nice. Almost as cool, not nearly so squishy.

When I wear linen, I specifically think of it as my wrinkly outfit. Makes me think of summer and sweet tea.
OK, so I'm really blase about age and birthdays and all that. No desire really to do anything for/about them, no fanfare. But apparently the upcoming one along with some other issues is bugging me. SO ANNOYING AND STUPID.
