Whoa! I... I think I'm having a thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a thought. Now I'm having a plan. Now I'm having a wiggins.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Most of the on-line plus size stores seem to start at size 12, and a few carry a size 10.

Really? That's just...but...

I look more rad than Lutheranism

As soon as I posted about the pets, the dogs got up from their beds and walked into the dining room (update: they're back on the beds, though they switched beds from where they were 2 minutes ago), the black cat came over to lay across my lap, and only Toke the cat hasn't moved.

There's a reason I love Toke so much. Her laziness is EPIC.

At $45, this place might be worth a gamble: [link]

Hmmm, that has possibilities. They're in Thailand, but even with shipping that might be doable. Thanks!

Art Crawl!!!

My cats seem to have a routine that involves sleeping in different parts of the apartment at different times of day.

A schedule that I can only glimpse when I take a few days off.

Maybe it's just me, but while it looks like all they sell is A and B cups, they almost never ever fit me. I would go from VS to Macys to Nordo on a doomed quest every year. Maybe my breasts are just freakish and wrong, at least from a manufacturer's POV.

Are the Nordies fitters no help? They're really the only place I trust for a fitting.

I was a teen with a smallish chest, one with a medium chest, and one with a large chest. I developed in fits and starts.

For me, the kind of comments and pressure with the large chest were far, far worse than with the small and medium. It was a shock to my system.

A schedule that I can only glimpse when I take a few days off.

When I'm at home, my cat prefers to sleep in her condo, because then she can usually keep a closed eye on me (if I head into the bathroom, she'll usually show up within a few minutes). However, I know that she likes to hang out in my bedroom if I'm not home, because lately, that's the direction she's coming from when I open the front door.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm so completely hourglass that anything that fits my hips/thighs, leaves about a four-five inch gap at the waist

Low-rise jeans have been my SALVATION :: everybody say amen :: It cracks me up that I'm wearing Old Navy's lowest-rise, but they tend to be perfect.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Low-rise jeans have been my SALVATION :: everybody say amen ::

When low-rise first came out, lo these 10 years ago, that rise was my salvation. I think they call them medium-rise now? Whatever, I just want to make sure I don't need to get a Brazilian wax in order to wear jeans. (Which it's too hot for in SF currently. Phew.)

I know you'll be a little busy while you're here, but I hope to see you this weekend! For more than the five minutes I saw you last time you were in town!

I guess it depends on how much of a slavedriver the wee one is! But, yes, I hope to see you.
