Yeah, I was on the brink of calling the midwives last night, but then the feeling was easing, and I feel fine today. I'll feel better when M comes home on Sunday, though -- I'm a little uneasier than I thought I'd be about him being away this weekend.

Natter 69: Practically names itself.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
What are Braxton-Hicks contractions? Sure I could look it up but Wikipedia won't give me anecdotes.
There's a green silk tie on eBay that has a tiny Meerschaum pipe and deerstalker pattern, and I want it. If only I wore ties.
They're also called false labor - they're sort of practice contractions that you get in the 3rd trimester as your body is prepping to get the baby out.
If only I wore ties.
All you have to do to wear ties is wear ties. Well, I suppose, a shirt that's reasonable to wear ties with is good too. I mean, I don't wear ties now, but once I start, that's done with!
Man, I'm so glad Community is back.
mac has slept over at the grandparents for 2 nights in a row, unplanned, and without me. First time this has happened EVER. So proud of him. Really hope this means I can take some weekend trips at some point (New Orleans, Austin, Las Cruces - I am looking at you all).
Work is pretty empty today and I am trying to take advantage of it, but doing some filing and supply cabinet reorganization/consolidation. I managed to clean out five file drawers thus far.

True, but also of, say, fluffy ruffles, or miniskirts, which I also don't wear. I could wear them, but I feel like I look silly in them.
Granted, I was a lot more bold in my sartorial choices when I was thin. Now I feel like I look silly in anything except a black t-shirt and jeans.
I wore skirts two days this week and you'd think I'd come in Chanel each time from the reaction I got. I'd just been thinking, hey, it's in the 80s, I've had a pedi and my legs are shaved—why not? But apparently I've been wearing trousers so much that skirts are a thing for me.
I liked the feedback, though, so I'll probably do this more often.

That in the end is up to you. I suppose a tie will look strange over my breasts, but, like ruffles, I don't really care.
Yeah, there are a ton of things I think look silly on me, but I know that's just me in most cases. Doesn't matter! I will continue to not wear them..
