I can't stand retail so finding a new pair of jeans for me is a resale shopping ordeal. I'm fortunate to have my mom, who loves resale shopping and tends to bring me cute tops to try on while I'm working my way through a stack of jeans.
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I can't stand retail
I'm not crazy about shopping, period (except grocery shopping -- I find it soothing, seriously), and I try to buy as much stuff online as I can. However, when it comes to pants of any kind, I need to try them on.
And I'd totally do resale/thrift shops if I were a non-plus size. Oh, I know that thrift shops have plus-size clothes, but it's hit or miss, and that's too much time potentially wasted if I go to a thrift store and can't find something in my size.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

It's true most of the clothes you find in resale shops are in the middle range of sizes.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I wish thrift stores were open on Sundays. I need some cheap warm sweaters for work.
Folding folding, la la la. Switched load to dryer, put more stuff away, purged a couple more things, finally emptied the suitcase from going to my folks back in September for my job interview.

Eating an apple. Tired of folding. Toooo many clothes... I have all this business wear that I probably need to get rid of, but I can't quite do it yet.
Sorted some mail. Cleaned off my dresser a bit. Need to clean off the flat surfaces in my living room.

I had some chocolate Special K. Watching No Reservations. Thinking about moving into the family room to play Tertris or maybe read The Amber Spyglass.

I am trying to decide where to go and what to do. I should clean my house, or go work out, but...meh. I have various errand-y type shopping things to do, but can't decide where to begin. And the outlet mall is kind of calling my name, even though I shouldn't. (...if I worked out, the clothes I already own might fit me)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Homebrew stuffs, laundry, random acts of computerness. Carefully avoiding all thoughts of tomorrow's meeting day from hell.
