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

There's a brand new Hustle on tonight!

This makes me happier than it probably should.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

$56 is way too much to pay for a coffee mug. Since this is for a set of four, it's really $14 per mug, which is expensive but acceptable, in my opinion. I have spent up to $25 on mugs that commemorate a special event, that the proceeds go to charity, or that are hand made.

Of course, I collect mugs.

I never intend my bra to show, but I have noticed that I have recently become less panicky than I used to if it shows inadvertently.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You know, so have I. What am I stressing about at all? The mugs shall be mine. And then I won't have that moment of embarrassment when I offer coffee to others.

I would feel no embarrassment either way, Cass, but I hope you enjoy the mugs!

The NYT Style section has an article today on... flip-flops. In LA, mostly. [link]

(Also, the guy who says he doesn't want to do business with people who don't like his dog really offended me.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Or I'm shopping in the wrong places. And I include Target in this. They shouldn't cost me more than $10. I'm just wanting a pair of crappy shower shoes, something to keep my feet off the grime for a quick few minutes.

I have a pair like that that are super thin but have held up amazingly well -- basically they are my house shoes but I have worn them out and about -- that cost like $3 at H&M a couple of years ago. Have you checked H&M and Old Navy?

What is even happening?

ita, if they're just for the shower, go to a Walgreen's (or whatever big, chain drug store you have out there) and look in their seasonal aisle. They probably have the really cheap ones.

FLIPFLOPS ARE TOO FUCKING EXPENSIVE.

Old Navy. They used to be $2.50 a pair (and, I mean, made of $0.03 of foam rubber, you get what you pay for) and now I think they're $3. I have two pair, and they haven't spontaneously combusted on my feet yet!

$3.50 each OR for for $5! Many colors. Mine are on their 2nd summer of bumming around. Old Navy: [link]

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

H&M we don't have. Old Navy I'm sure we do.
