Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

LL Bean makes flannel-lined and polar fleece-lined jeans. My ex-housemate bought me a pair and I've worn them like they're going out of style.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hemp jeans exist.

Yeah, but the one time I tried some on, they had none in my size. I had them order me a pair but they never showed up.

I suppose I could try again....

Too bad ChiPants isn't still in business.

Do people buy jeans online? Even when I buy Levis there seems a lot of variation in sizing between the different lines, so I'm afraid if I bought jeans without trying them on it'd be a crapshoot.

If you've got a place with a good return/exchange policy, buying over the internet can still be less stressful than going to a mall. LLBean uses those virtual model thingies.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

That extended patch of false spring we had in February really messed up some of the little bulbs, but thankfully daffodils and other plants are pretty cold-hardy and able to regenerate the growing tips again and again if necessary.

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

Speaking of pants (but not jeans), I went to Lucy and got two new pairs of pants, one for stretching/lounging and one for general daywear. And I got to apply TWO coupons, which brought the price down to reasonable. Yay!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

tommyrot, the last pair of jeans I bought, I tried on the size/style in the store, and then ordered the extra-long from the website. It was like magic!

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

What's the deal with replacing the core of your wardrobe, ita? Do you have a plan?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

bon bon just asked what I was going to. What's up with the core?

I just sneezed on the clean sheets I put on the bed yesterday. Is it too early to ask for a do over on the day?
