No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

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

Ha. Did Kat say she went shopping, or is it just you and me locally, Kristin, with a Trixie? How many did SF get?

Ugh. I have to work tomorrow's wardrobe and I'm having such issues with more than perfectly nice stuff. Maybe the ice blue knit T-shirt (I need more silk knit T-shirts, in all honesty--they tend to be long, but layer well) and the black velvet skirt.

PEER PRESSURE MAKING ME BUY PRETTY DRESS THAT WILL MAKE MY ARMS LOOK LIKE HAMS

Yes, because we're that awful. BUY IT.

Our wings are not tired.

I did a dorktastic thing a few weeks ago and purchased one of those "Color Me Beautiful" wallet-sized color dealies online. Remember getting your colors done when it was all the rage in the 80's? You don't? Well then you must've been born in the 80's.

Anyway, I bought the damned thing out of sheer frustration with my wardrobe; I have way too many things that aren't quite "right" and the only reason I bought them is one word: "Sale".

So, have been shopping, with chart. And I swear, I've received more compliments in the last two weeks (on new clothing) than in the two previous years combined. Who knew?

It's true! I dress outside of winter sometimes, but that's only when the outfit (usually a vintage dress) is that cool that no one's paying attention to the colour.

Now that I think about it I'm not sure where the ice blue top snuck in. Ah, well. Too late. Someone needs to send me some wine and plum, though. My purples have been tending to have too much white in them recently.

I am a winter now-- but I might have Summer tendencies if I went grey.

I have two wardrobes -- the look at me wardrobe tha tis all winter colors and the don't see me clothes -- which are more summer/ fall clothes

I always wanted to be a winter. I'm not giving up my blacks, but I've accepted that I'm more of a Spring on the cusp of Autumn.

I wonder if the TD people check their ref logs. We've made a LOT of purchases today.

They were one of the first non-eBay or Amazon online retailers I bought from! I got my wedding corset from them! So I always think of them with pink sparkle hearts. (OMG, was that really 9 years ago??? Sheeeeeeeeeet.)

Sounds like at the next F2F we'll have to have a "wear your trixie" night.

I'd rather have a "wear Pixie" night. ;)

The boys can wear their utilikilts.

And, really, log checking is very important. But is there much left to be wrung out of us? Other than having Kat & I model the Obi.
