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?

“Not dead yet!”

Bra shopping an unsurprising bust.

Intentional, sara?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

expensively shaped.

I like that phrase.

TJ's apple cider is nummy and addictive. Their sample counter is evil.

It REALLY is.

Intentional, sara?

Nope, but ahahaha!

I haven't paid less than $35 for a bra in over a decade. When I can find them. I'm too small in the band for Lane Bryant now, and too big a cup for anyone else. And IF they have the size, it's pointy or does the quadraboob thing, trying to shove them into my armpits.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Boobs are weird.

There was a teenager shopping with her grandma, complaining to her. "Why did I have to be the only one to get your bazookas?" I started laughing, I couldn't help it. Told her I too am the only female in the whole family to inherit my grandma's bust.

Our wings are not tired.

Finally caught up.

Happy Birthday to Brenda!

Belated birthday wishes for Kate P.

Boobs are indeed weird, but in my case at least they are cheap over the counter bra sized weird.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Mine are only weird for another 25 days!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Sarameg, the trick is you go to Nordies for the sizing, eBay for the bras.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Last time I bought bras, they were $80.

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

Most of my mother's side of the family is decently booby. I've just been the one to inherit my father's frame, so I have a smaller rib cage than most of them, which means that when we have the "my boobs aren't the biggest" debates I have to re-explain the cup-size-is-a-ratio thing every time. Some people. Even so, there are some racks up in that family tree...forget rib cages and ratios. Those are, as we used to call them in university, developing African nations.

I gave up on affordable bras a while back, and I've mostly given up on pretty bras. I don't think my breasts are that big, but they do misbehave and try to break free a lot.
