Congratulations, Calli!

Flea, heeee!

Lee, what china glaze colors did you score?

Sorry about the car, Nicole.

Thyme smells pretty wonderful underfoot, too. And I tire eventually of mint. Pineapple sage is wonderful, as is lemon thyme. I miss my herbs. Next year.

I have finished spackling, and I found the tiny jar of "touch up paint" as it was labeled. It was pretty dried up, but I slapped some on the wall over the spackle, and it was good enough. And then I put up the neato earring holder thing (using my cordless drill!), and finally put up all my earrings and bracelets (I have too many, but also not enough!) and necklaces. Found some I'd forgotten. Found some I desperately wish I hadn't lost one of the pair. Sigh. Found a few that need fixing. Randomly knew where the silver polishing cloth for my flute was (...that is, knew where the bag with my flute and piccolo was, one of the few bags I knew where it is) and have just polished a silver bracelet which was all tarnished.

Tomorrow I tackle the clothes and shoes, I think. Much more scary, since I have a lot more of them than the earrings. And I really should get rid of some of them.

Does this mean you're going to allow me in there some day?

Um, maybe?

no muffins, but I did some cleaning and showered myself. that makes the day go away.

The medicine dump ended up being 9 packages, all expired. Everything went in the trash and containers went to recycling, except for the liquid, those I poured over cat litter before dumping. My medicine cabinet is not nearly as cramped.

I feel bad for all you bra tortured people, that is just the pits. Pants are a bit of a nightmare for me, but I wear lots of skirts and dresses. Bras are not so avoidable. ((hugs my Warner's Fridays bras))

I am really still frustrated over the bra thing. Just pissed now (literally,) so not crying worthy, just...man. Bra lady said "What will you do?" and I replied "Deal, just like always. Wear annoying crappy cheap bras that at least look ok 50% of the time." She looked like she would cry. Yeah, you and me both. Better that than hate the $$ bra that I hate the shape of but technically fits, just looks like ass.

Feh.

Joy, Sexy in the city, and evening seduction.

Nice that she was so invested though.

My problem is that so many are meant to push together instead of spererate. I blame VS.

I fear hubby and I are going to fight about immigration tonight. I don't thinks he pays as much attention and looks at things as in-depth as I do. He has a general bad habit (I think) of listening to sound bites on NPR and then talking over the rest of the story.

Kelly recently introduced me to Soma Intimates. They are owned by Chico, who also owns White House/Black Market. Anyway, I bought a couple of bras there a few weeks ago and I've been very pleased with them. The sales staff where very helpful in advising on sizing and models. The prices were pretty reasonable too, even before Kelly used her 40% discount. DJ, the bras I got separate instead of squish.

Soma doesn't have my size, but they are very nice!

I'm apparently a 34G, and I need squish, not separate, because that's the lay of the land. But anything that lies over the top fails, because that's where the volume is at. And I'm not pointy in any stretch of the imagination. Basically, I am apparently the bramaker's blindspot. Sucks. Was so much easier when I weighed more.

My sister grew into her large breasts very young and has a big complex about them. She's obsessive about finding pretty bras. I don't consider myself large-breasted, but I have a small rib cage so I can be hard to fit, and the best fitting bras are pretty nursing-attractive. But my sister surprises me and hooks me up with some pretty stuff every now and again. I'm not sure how she does it, when I can't find the right size and I'm right there to try stuff on.

Also hard to dress them, because they like to try and escape their bonds. so only certain styles only.

But they are comfortable.
