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

have you tried a TENS unit?

No. The only official medical things I've done are having trigger point injections (though the doctor says he won't do any more) and using Lidoderm patches. The pain guy thought there might be a loop between the migraines and the neck/shoulder (and sometimes arm/face, bugger it all), but the pain picked up during my occipital nerve block period which was relatively light in terms of migraines.

So I have no freaking idea.

I'll make an appointment with my GP today. I keep forgetting that I don't work 40 miles from him anymore so seeing him during a work day will be less of a huge deal.

"honey, no. The shelf bra is for A and possibly B cups. You passed that long ago"

That's me you're talking to. I've been wearing them during my D/DD years. The girls are decently positioned, but I very rarely wear one without something over it, and they do move around a fair bit.

I was having a productive morning, it is a beautiful day - and I am home watching Sesame with a 3 year old who greeted me at day care with "I barfed." Having a hard time shifting gears. At keast I have 70 pages left of a new to me Jennifer Crusie.

see, but you're wearing something over it. and you have well developed pec muscles, so they're not at your belly button.

So. My aunt is undergoing open heart surgery today, maybe right now. She had a heart attack a few weeks back and they put in a stent. Friday, she had a...I dunno. Anyeurism in her heart? Anyway, they're going in to fix that and do some other cleanup, I guess.

She's pissed because she's missing her quilt trip.

Punishingly Intricate

At least we got to see other buffistas. And roller derby. Which was all I hoped it would be, and more.

So sorry about sarameg getting lost and about everybody else standing in line while we played! But it was fun seeing everybody who made it and hoped everyone enjoyed the derby.

Am really sad you all missed seeing our dolphin on skates though. On skates! A dolphin! It was madness!

Poor sara's aunt!

sometimes you see larger women with those little strappy tank tops and you just want to say "honey, no. The shelf bra is for A and possibly B cups. You passed that long ago"

I fear this will be me. I dig the strappy tank tops so much. But I can't go out without something covering the tank because it makes me super self concious.

I'm exhuasted this morning and regretting that this is my last week of leave.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have a plus-sized friend who has these incredible strappy tank tops with a full underwire bra built in. They look great on, and look hilarious off.

I have a great hate for the shelf bra camisoles/tanks cause I can rarely find camisoles without them these days, and they will never ever work for me because the band goes in the wrong place. I'm not looking for support from them, just coverage (I wear them under stuff, so my bras take care of the support issue.)
