oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
sending the money ma~~~ to Daniel. Luckily bullying is their tactic - and can be used against them - you can tell them to stop calling you. But I am so sorry this came round to bite you in the ask when you thought the painful part was over. Best to you .

I have new bras! i went with Macy's. though just like your Dillard's story, -t, there was no one to help me. i just muddled through. at least the straps on these stay up. that's a plus if nothing else.
they also tried to overcharge me, but that's neither here nor there. NEW BRAS!!
Cindy, that's awesome. my co-worker's been tearing her hair out trying to get her 4 yo in a pre-K class and apparently tennessee's pre-K schools are all income based and they won't accept children whose parents make more than a certain amount. is that that stupid ass "no child left behind" trickling down to pre-K?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I had my fitting at Nordstroms. She pronounced me a 32DD (I'm probably a 34D now with the lat expansion) and gave me some Wacoals to try on. What was cool was that she explained they sized to Wacoals, so if they're the right cup shape (full coverage) I pick them up in my size without hesitation. Most everything else I start with the 32DD, but I know I may be in for some experimenting.

I love Walcoals. I picked my first one up on sale and now I'm addicted to $60 bras.

Yeah, me too. Fucking sucks.
My sister bought me pretty lacy underwear (bra and matching garter belt) for Christmas. Luckily the size ran Wacoal true, but what made us laugh was that it was Marks and Spencers--when we lived in England in the 80s, it was where your grandmother (we were teenagers, for perspective) would get her clothes, or so you felt in your resistance to your parents, and your urge to go to Top Shop instead.
Now it's all sexy and pretty and shit.
Lord knows when I'll ever wear the garter belt. But at least I have an excuse to buy old school stockings. In case.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
One of my new bras is a Wacoal but I haven't worn it out into the world yet. It was on sale for $30 which was apparently much more of a sale than I realized at the time. Damn liking the expensive stuff!
