Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

There is very little in my wardrobe that doesn't feel like me.

Mine too. I've been actively purging that way recently, just to make sure. So the foofy skirt with petticoats is as me as the wifebeaters or the leather bustiers or the nehru jacket or the empire waist camisoles.

I get different feelings off them, some as low key as utter relaxation, but everything that made me wrinkle my nose in boredom is in a bag waiting to be Goodwilled.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

If you breasts were removable, would you take them off, too? There are nights I would love to just tuck 'em in a pretty pink satin box, and leave them there 'til I needed them.

That's pretty much what I do.

A good friend of mine's partner was a D-cup before her surgeries. Now you can't keep a shirt on her. If Gail is bringing people home she'll call ahead. Her GF just laughs at her.

But anyway, I can grok the idea that one kind of clothing is more comfortable than another, because it fits with some way the wearer thinks/feels.

This. So very much this.

Which, of course, is what I think is the best way to decide what to wear. "Does this bore me? Then I'm not going to own it."

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

Sadly, I wear so many boring items of clothing. Because it if is boring but comfy, it totally gets a pass as lounge wear. I do, however, try to avoid dowdy.

Do you like wearing them, Burrell? I have a pair of grey men's work pants that function as pyjamas. I can't imagine how they don't look boring, but since they have a firm place in my wardrobe and I want to wear them, they stay.

Now tagless for your comfort.

heh. It's been 4 years since I've been able to take off my bra comfortably. Even at night, I wore a bra all through pregnancy and nursing

I still sleep in my Bravado's even though we've stopped nursing. I need the support. And it's almost like wearing a sport tank under a t-shirt. I can then jump up immediately for any nighttime or early morning emergency and don't feel like I need to slip on a bra.

I'm a girl that would NEVER EVER answer my door or leave my house without a bra. I just can't. Lives may be lost.

Thrive to spite them

I don't have much to say about the clothes stuff. Well, I'm wearing more skirts and jewelry and stuff but that's mostly because I was lazy before.

The day kinda sucked. I drove up too high on a parking curb thing and tore whatever plastic thing is that covers the underside of the car.

Can I be more vague? Anyway it looks like it's about to fall off. My car was pretty a year ago and now it's been dinged up some (mostly not by me).

Does anyone know if this kind of thing is expensive to replace?

Well I do keep wearing them, so yeah.

There was stuff I wore that I didn't particularly like, so I thought I'd ask.

That stuff is being turfed or donated, because I already own other clothing that fills the niche.
