I am a C that goes braless a lot. i'm not perky, but most real bras with enough support poke me. Yes, even the ones I've bought at fittings. People with just have to deal with my less than perfectly placed breasts. and I like shelf bras.

Go Kathy! go Beej! When I seriously wok out my calves grow too.

Sorry to hear about the Eastern Market

Yesterday I gardened my self into an asthma attack. Did it to myself. but I am trying to be positive, because how will I know my limits if I don't occasionally go past them. And it gives me a good reason to catch up on TIVO and the dvds that are waiting for me to watch them

Ooooh. These would fit! They give the actual calf opening. How excellent is that? Thanks for the tip Steph.

Beej, I have those EXACT boots, in red. I love love LOVE them!

That seems to be reasonably good news about Teddy.

( i knew there was something I had forgotten)

I have a plus-sized friend who has these incredible strappy tank tops with a full underwire bra built in.

Jesse, if you could find out where she got them, I would love you for ever and ever!

ChiKat! Are you done teaching yet?

jogging instead of walking

Not for me! Bless you for wanting to run. I've given that up as a never again thing in my life. My bones rattle enough as it is! So I'm intensely grateful that walking and spinning are getting me good results without having to resort to jogging. I'd just embarrass myself.

WELL. With that endorsement, I can't go wrong! Yay, I've always wanted cowperson boots but have been embarrassed by and made uncomfortable (PINCH) by the calf hanging over...or not allowing the boot to go all the way up. So yay for discovery.

Me too!

I am! I finished on Friday. Now, it's job hunting time.

I linked above to a strappy camisole with the underwire built in.

The tub guy is back. I really kind of hate the tub guy.

Does anyone ever have good experiences with home repairs these days? I don't know if we just have bad luck, but it seems like stuff always goes wrong, or people fuck up the job the first time, or they flat-out lie.
