"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I just signed up for Crazy Blind Date. It seems easier than any of the other options!

Can you possibly combine this with the money taxi thing?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, man -- now I forget who it was, but someone recently told me he saw the Cash Cab! But not when it was looking for passengers -- that's how they knew what it was, with the follow truck and the gear in the trunk.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yeah, that's it. Crazy Blind Date in the Cash Cab!

You'd be so money in so many ways.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Found cat! Shot the antibiotic in her mouth. Now she hates me again....

Ah, the cycle of cat medication. I know it well.

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

Watching "My Big Breasts and Me." on BBC America I feel positively flatchested. But still confident that I'm wearing the right size bra.

I need new underwear. If it isn't wearing out, it is falling off.

Like I have time to shop for underwear when I'm spending my life at Home Despot.

I lost more than fifteen pounds with my last medication switch, which means my bras fit right again. I refused to shop for new undies at the previous weight (BMI: overweight, both when uberfit and not, thankee) because that was serious. But I did shop for outerwear, which means I have a bunch of size 8 clothes that I don't know if I should keep or not. They could change my meds again, or my metabolism could age out.

Wait! I just noticed Opera 10 does spellchecking in text entry boxen. Don't like.

I think I last bought bras 20 lbs ago. Haven't bought undies in 40.

My summer clothes fall off. My mover was laughing at me when I binderclipped my shorts to my shirt on moving day. Another problem. I have one pair of jeans (of 2) that I don't have to hike up every other step (and the larger, I can walk out of if I'm not careful.) And some of my tops are falling off my shoulders.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to be at this weight. I won't mind losing a little more, because I'm feeling myself. Funny part is I'm pretty sure it is the added stress (in a good way) of my current job jumpstarting a formerly depressed system. Especially when I dropped almost 10 lbs the week leading up to closing.

But I HATE shopping and it is becoming urgent at the most inconvenient possible time. As it is, I've been putting off buying travel clothes for this reason alone.

We'll fly into Atlanta (where I hope we can see Ginger).

That will be great. Let me know if there's anything I can do at this end.
