I think a UK 10 is a US 8 -- in any case, I'd say she's only that size b/c of the boobs or height. I've been between 6 and 14 and that body fits into a 4-6 here.
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

When I used to watch the BBC WNTW, I think I figured out that you need to subtract 4, so a size 10 UK is closer to a 6 US.

Now tagless for your comfort.
We just introduced the kids to Peeps. DH said, "Lets keep feeding 'em to the kids and see what happens."
A world of no.
Brings to mind the episode of Malcolm in the Middle where Francis tries a Cool Hand Luke with Peeps.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
It was from an ita link, wasn't it?
Nope. Atul Gawande describing a particularly unpleasant surgery.
ita, I love those twins as well. It's the photo of them--sooo cute! I wonder what they look now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am annoyed on principle that the NEW YORK Times is paying someone to write an article about problems with Chicago's "century-old, deteriorating" mass transit system. Not that NYC subway is so terrible, but there are actually current issues with it!

Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Allyson!
Got back from FKO last night. Other than the trip to Toronto, it was wonderful. The guests of honor, a 16-person filk chorus, were amazing to listen to, and there was lots of good music going on.
Now getting there, that was a bit more of a challenge than I would have liked. It started with our flight out of National being delayed 3 hours. Add the half hour on the ground at Pierson waiting for a gate and various luggage and shuttle issues, and we didn't get to the hotel until 2 am Friday morning. Bleah...

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Happy Birthday, Allyson!
And wishes and vibes and such for all I've missed in the last week or so.

Chicago's CTA woes have been huge news lately.
