Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Poor cranky belle. Working on Israel's schedule AND New York's really seems like a bad idea.

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

Oh, msbelle. Something pink will happen to you soon, and make this a faint memory.

I finally got something cleared up about this ad. That's not Colin's body. It was just so horribly off that I had to ask him. Why they bothered with the grafting I'm not sure, but take it from me--freakishly wrong.

I'm startled at how inured I now am to people complimenting his looks. Perhaps because he's finally getting to show off some of what caught my eye, I'm not distracted by you strange people.

What is even happening?

You'll note I used the gentile, polite, non-threatening "Handsome" because he's your friend, and I understand the OH-THAT'S-NOT-RIGHT feeling a person might have, if people were making more forward comments about a friend.

The picture I saw was a head shot, so there were no "wrong body" issues. How is that body wrong, ita?

And that is well appreciated. Back in my more delicate days, not everyone was quite so circumspect.

Neck's too short. The person depicted is all squat. Colin verges on the gangle. I mean, in my head he still is, but in real life, he at least looks like he could have, ten years ago.

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

JZ, you know underwires are a no-no post partum (and maybe even at the end of pregnancy--I disremember), right?
Not JZ. Not pregnant. But thinking about it now. No underwires??? On, like, doctor's orders? ::ponders ungluing knees::

Perhaps because he's finally getting to show off some of what caught my eye
He's good looking but it's his delivery that strikes me in Eureka. That and the funny thing that I often forget he's "ita's Colin" when I am watching the show.

The person depicted is all squat.
I suspect that Squat!Man's shirt photographed better for putting text over the image. Or I wonder. I am not invested enough in it to get to suspicion.

I have an hour and forty five minutes before my tv should start watching tv for me tonight. Is that time enough to fuss with cabling and trying to get my dvr to freaking talk to its hivemind? This is the first time in over a year that I have wished I had a landline.

What happened to the cute ringlet plan?

For those playing along at home, it took about ten minutes. Took longer to pull my computer and all of the remotes over by the tv and grab my phone and pen in case I needed to call the cable company. Sometimes stuff just starts working when it wasn't before. Huh. Thanks, universe.

Now tagless for your comfort.

JZ, you know underwires are a no-no post partum (and maybe even at the end of pregnancy--I disremember), right?

I wore my underwires up until the end. And it's just till milk's fully established and no apparent nursing problems until you can try an underwire nursing bra (which they make, but I find hella uncomfortable). Now I switch back and forth between my nursing bras and underwires. I want to find a non-underwire that feels as good as a Bravado but I'm too lazy to go get fitted and to shop for one.
