Yes, I bought dark brown tights at Target earlier this Fall. (Merona?) I also bought some fun "tweeded" gray tights there.

Actual adult sized tights are a pain in the ass to find, even here in Chicago. I really don't get it.

I did find some last year at Urban Outfitters, Aimee, if Target doesn't pan out.

Merona! That's exactly right.

I'm telling you, the E.G. Tights from sock dreams are fantastic. They last forever and hold their shape and aren't binding. LOVES THEM.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Kat, those look awesome. I'm bookmarking that link for when I can be more indulge-y. I loved cable-knit tights when I was little. Since I was prone to wearing dresses, even in the dead of a Michigan winter, my mom always bought me cable knit tights. I lurrrved them.

Yeah. The problem is they are ridiculously expensive. I'm sort of in love with socks (and tights) from sock dreams.

information libertarian

I think - as a non-expert, but someone who works in academia - that economics is somewhat unusal in being a field with real-world, immediate applications that is based on relatively poor models. Human behavior is extremely difficult to model and generalize from (compared, say, to the behavior of water in pipes, which my husband models mathematically for a living, and which, despite being relatively concrete, is still quite complex to model.) I would place Econ with the other social sciences (sociology, poli sci) in this respect, but of these fields it closely resembles, economics seems to be the one whose public face is the most confident in its predictive ability and authority.

Ooh, and now my secret santa has arrived! Well, not the actual santa, which would be even cooler, but still! This is shaping up to a very good week.
