Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Although that one does have the photgrapher commenting.

I am excited to start my weekend off right: bought a super sale cardigan at Banana Republic, got a free burrito, talk ed to a former coworker on the phone. So far, so good!

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

I think I'm an everybody apologist. Right now it's Summer Glau. I don't even much like her, but I don't get people who say that River and Cameron were similar characters, and who apparently didn't watch The Unit or The Cape. It's really easy to say someone has no range if you only watch them in two things.

Also, I tried on this dress [link] from the "Mad Men" collection, and it was SO CLOSE, but I didn't need it. I wanted to need it.

Whoah. I just took the Coban off my thumb and it's bruised to all git out. What did I do? Still swollen, but not as tender as this morning.

Mad Men collection means make my boobs look like Christina Hendricks, right? That's what it's shorthand for? And give me a boyfriend that looks like Jon Hamm, but he can wear underwear if he likes?

There is nothing on God's green earth that could make my boobs look like Christina Hendricks'. I do not have a late-50s-early-60s body.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

The folks at Ford are very sympathetic to my issues with Chevy and said they think I'd very much enjoy their mustang.

Chevy called me to say that they would give me 1K for my car. I said Kelly Blue Book says 2-4k. He said he'd call back. He hasn't.

I feel trapped. But at least if things don't work out with the part, I'll already have done my research.

Not that I could ever have Christina's boobs, but what I could really never have is her hips/waist. My rack is decent-to-troublesome already.

Because books.

There's a Mad Men collection? Did I want to be tempted?

But at least if things don't work out with the part, I'll already have done my research.

Good for you, lady. I'm glad you're not backing down.

I honestly, straight up, want a chainmail bra. I have a passel of bustiers I haven't tried to squeeze into in years, so why am I even thinking of it again?
