Sewing question: can jeans be altered? I have a great pair of jeans that I love, but I've lost enough weight they're falling off my hips, but I didn't even wear them that much so they're in great shape, and I hate to get rid of them. Can a tailor drop them down a size? Or are jeans just too difficult to be worth it?
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It can be done, but depending on how they're constructed, it might not be worth it.

Ruined the fucking movie for me. Just ruined. The movie was going along great until that bullshit.
I LAUGHED in the theater when that line was uttered.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

"You -- What, how? I mean, you're drenched."
"I... It's embarrassing."
"More embarrassing than not noticing the street is near flooded?"
"Look, don't laugh. I... have a perspiration problem. When I get flustered. I sweat. A lot."
"Yes, but it's really raining quite heavily, and you're soaked, so--"
"A lot. Dehydration is a real issue."
"...Ok, so you should, um -- You should probably get that checked. But did you not notice that I'm also drenched?"
"I thought you'd changed your hairstyle."
"...I think we should just be friends."

I really like Andie in Sex, Lies and Videotape and Groundhog Day (where her job was to be charmed by Bill Murray. Which admittedly can't be too hard since every woman I've ever seen play against Bill Murray looks a little giddy with charm. See also, Sigourney Weaver in Ghostbusters and Olivia Williams in Rushmore.)

Yerp. Now, there should totally be a link between massive bottle of champagne and having a mad crazy loop of henle.
"Loop of henle" does not come up often enough in conversation.
