What is even happening?

Yeah, I've got a 6" differential. Kind of annoying, and also why low-rise pants are the best evAH (not the super-low-rise. Just the ones that ride on the hips).
For me, low rise pants are of the devil.

I still have a 12 inch differential from bust to waist, and from waist to hips, but everything is much larger. I really need to see about that, this summer. I'm being eaten alive by body image demons, lately.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

low-rise cropped jeans fit me like a normal person. I need to buy a lot of them before they go out of style.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Low rise jeans give me hips from the front. God bless them.

Me too. They're the only jeans I can wear without gapping at the waist and folding up the cuffs.

What Allyson, ita, and Hil said.

Okay, seeking food now.

Meanwhile, I'm asking WHEN WILL THE CAPRI PHASE END? I can't stand them on me. They make me look squat. I need summer weight pants, no fuss, cotton preferably, actually I need everything they're selling in capris, but in the long pant style, and not low rise. When I wear them, and sit, my ass hangs, or at least, there's too much gap.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Ugh. I had a nice lunch with a summer associate today and just found out that for the entire lunch, I thought he was the other African law student with the unpronounceable name, which I apparently called him at least three or four times. Why did no one tell me?! I feel like an idiot.

WHEN WILL THE CAPRI PHASE END?

Wrod. I couldn't find one skirt last year and bought a pair of capris just so I'd have something lightweight to wear. I was so thrilled to see skirts back in fashion. Too bad I'm broke.

Because telling them would make everyone have to acknowledge the whole idiot thing. And then there might be apologies and squirming and stuff. This way, you just send him an apologetic email, and your faces can pretend it never happened.

They took the easy way out. I do too, a lot.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

In my normal body, I am not curvy. In my pregger body, I am very curvy indeed, especially in the belly area. In my nursing body, I have a whole lot more curve than usual. It's so weird that my normal body is just a memory at this point.
