I've actually sewn up the placket in several of my shirts because of the gapage. Button-up tailored shirts are actually a style I feel comfy in, but it is totally hit or miss if they are going to fit right. And they'll gape no matter what. And I will iron only rarely. I'm slightly rumpled.
Hey, man, where are my pants? I have my hippo dignity!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Allyson, I got the call. I'm not sure if I'll go and pick them up (thank you!) in the middle of the day, since I'll be there from 5:45 on. It all depends on errands and the head.
Thank you again!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

We can start with the Joe Millionaire chick.
Actually, scratch that. Let's start with whoever made my current vacuum. There doesn't seem to be a way to remove the plastic ends, so that you get a straight tube and, say, unclog the tube with a broomstick. Suggestions?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
My major clothing gripe (which is true of my body at any size) is that the button-down shirt industry seems to be in deep denial over the existence of boobs. I would like them to get over that, please.
Oh good lord yes. Even with stretch fabric, they tend to be obscene on me.

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

Ah the Ramen guy! sad.
My only bout of energy is now gone. I need two more rubbermaid tubs so it looks like Target is my future. yay Target? Except I'm not feeling the Target love.

The mooses scare me.
My current wardrobe irritant is that my jeans are medium low rise, nothing obscene or edgy, but my tops (and the ones I find in the store) are the same length as they always were. Which means they either tuck in half-heartedly or don't tuck in at all.
I have no basic issue with baring my nearly-forty-year-old midriff (shameless mutton that I am), but there are definitely times it's not appropriate. Why didn't shirt-hems drop when pant-waists did?
