Huh. It turns out that for me, stockings, like tattoos, shouldn't have words in them.

See, if they had only said "bite me", then I would have coveted a pair unreasonably.

Argh. Got a notice on my door that the water will be off for 8 hours on Monday. I should probably find something to do away from the house then. And do laundry now.

I'm not sure I like these as much, but these are really pretty.

I *love* 311. They know everything!

The only time I regretted calling them was during the first "maple syrup smell" event a few years back - they immediately transferred me to 911 because apparently odors are considered emergencies no matter what, and then I felt really guilty for wasting the 911 operator's time. (911 transferred me to the fire department who thankfully did not dispatch anyone because I was the zillionth person they'd spoken to that night about the exact same completely harmless odor.)

Whereas I'd have liked them better if they only said "whip me."

I already have one pair of wordy stockings. They amuse me, although they don't get worn near often enough.

I want some more thigh-highs.

I also like tattoos with words. My next one is going to have words, when I can get around to it.

See, if they had only said "bite me", then I would have coveted a pair unreasonably.

And I would have thought Jilli! and made sure that you saw the link.

I went through a big thigh high stage a few years ago, but don't wear them near as much anymore. I don't wear anything that's as much work anymore. But I still have a ton. I should have another go at them.

I love them. But I'd love them more with actual garters, I think.

Says the girl who wears jeans 98% of her life.

How do people organize their clothes? When I was a kid, I had one dresser and one small closet, and it was plenty of room for the relatively few items of clothing I had. Now? I have lots of clothes, including sizes that are too small (hope) and sizes that are too big (fear), and things that I never had/needed/wanted when I was younger, like shrugs and camisoles and business garb and exercise/yoga wear and underwear that isn't bras and panties. I have five closets and three dressers and various storage boxes, and they're overflowing. I can't find half of what I have, because I'm basically just shoving stuff wherever there's room for it. The items I'm wearing most are hanging on a chair and a coat tree in my bedroom, and everything else is chaos.

I've always been a t-shirt and jeans and occasional skirt wearing girl. I don't know what to do with all this stuff! Besides giving it all to Goodwill and starting over, of course, but I fear that won't solve the basic problem of not knowing how to organize.
