Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I love jeans 'cause they hold in the gut and show off the leg!

The only reason not all my pants are jeans is I have a terrible fear that the moment I get rid of all my business-casual-wear, I'll wind up in a job where I can't wear jeans. So I have a few pairs of black and grey pants (cut exactly like jeans, natch) just in case.

See, I've never worn a girdle or corset because they sound uncomfy and I'm all about comfy. Corsets sure look pretty, though. I'm also kind of blocky on top (no waist), so I'm not sure a corset would flatter me.

A properly-fitted corset is AMAZINGLY comfortable. Some girdles can be comfy, but they're a little more hit-or-miss.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Yes! This is why I don't understand the stretch/waistband-at-the-crotch trend. Completely defeats the purpose.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Can you take a mental-health sick day? I know it's not much, but sometimes a random day off can really help.

I did yesterday, and it did help. I think I just need several days off in a row.

Also, do you take classes over the summer? Maybe just your job and not school on top will feel like a break...?

I do. I will only be taking classes for 1/2 the summer term this summer, so I'll have all of July and most of August school-free. And I cannot wait.

ChiKat, if you're still around, do you have the names of any larger-sized consignment shops in the Chicago area?

I don't. If you find one, let me know.

Jeans. I do like them when I can find them to fit, but that's really difficult. I'm high-waisted, short legged and big tummied.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Sweetheart. You don't need either. Trust.

But Jilli is right about the corsets. Comfy as hell.

That opening sequence on Gillmore Girls is among the cutest things I've ever seen.

I'm confused. Looking at the Lucky Brand Jeans website I ran across a style/wash that is on sale for $22. I tried to select an inseam and the only choice was 34 (long). Fine, I'm good with that and not surprised at a sale item being limited like that. I go to pick size and the only choice is 0/2S. Okay... again, not surprised by the lack of choices but doesn't S usually indicate "short"? How does that jive with the long inseam? Not that it matters. I don't think I've ever been a 0/2.
