So you guys need to know the minutia of my day, right?

Yes. Duh!

(and not just because of no longer my dress being involved.)

I just...didn't expect to go down a band size, and in my family going up a cup size or three is always fodder for trauma

Going down a band size means you're much more likely to go up in cup size, from what I've heard.

Hi all!

Yay Perkins for hiring a house cleaner. It's a sanity maker for me. Even with someone else to do the mopping and heavy lifting, I still find the cooking, the shopping, the daily dishes, spot cleaning, and the--why God why does it never end?!?--laundry oppressive.

In happier news, I just did my nails for the first time in almost a month. Yay pretty! Yay Zoya purples! I have Yasmeen on my fingers and Ki on my toes.

I've been this band size before. Never this cup size. And I went up, like, three.

I must just reassure myself that they're the prettiest bras I've ever owned. Very pretty. Yes.

YAY pretty!

I went bra shopping last weekend, but just ended up with some practical ones.

I tend to buy bras on clearance at Marshall's because they're pretty. But I always end up wearing the same two or three practical nude-colored ones.

Responding to the last few Natter 66s:

Go to Platine and come hang out with me, Kat. I think that's a great idea.

I should go supervise the kids. They are practicing soccer in the front yard.

Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake with the Roots do the History of Rap.

That's so last week. But yes, excellent. Even my grandmother saw it! (We were talking about late-night tv this afternoon.)

I went over, had lunch with my father, walked into Harvard Square, where I traded 7ish books for 2 and bought a 3rd, back to the house, hung out with my grandmother, talked to my aunt on the phone, and then came home. I should do stuff, but now I'm lazy.

I used to have difficulty finding my size in "normal" stores, and then I discovered that VS carried it, and I could get all sorts of racy colours and prints in their satin line. Those were good times. Then my boobs changed shape, and nothing in VS fit anymore. It was just medium expensive plain Wacoal bras and very expensive but pretty random other brands.

With this new sizing I think I'm even more screwed in department stores. But maybe that was the store's angle! Convince me I'm some strange size so I have to shop with them forever.

I love grated daikon as a condiment for fish.
