Mostly I feel that the 1x/2x size it too tall! I have to fold it on my thighs!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I swear, this is magic. Mine are always too short (although not as much too short as yours, I'm sure....), and going up a size fixed it! I guess we'll see what happens when I wash them, but I may have found the promised land.

not too many tights can get over these hips.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So maybe I am the only person that has a pair of tights that fit right now??
Is there a simpler way to tidily fasten the back than attaching a snap fastener, but with the end rolled over and stitched down so you can't see it?
Sophia must know the answer to this, but I'm going to say glue, assuming you won't want to use the ribbon again.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My tights fit--the normal ones. The compression tights--I don't believe they fit anyone. Like, I want to be able to put them on so I can get compressed, but yikes. My mother is entirely paranoid about edema (I might have a history, so what?) and nags me about flying wearing them. But I'm going to wear compression socks instead.
My sister fucked up her foot pretty badly (spent weeks on crutches and may still be in a walking cast for the wedding next weekend), and apparently she needs compression hose too.
FINALLY finished the anti money laundering training & test. I cannot believe how much of my professional life I've been required to take that AND I STILL HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA WHAT TERM LIFE is. Okay, fine--I have an idea. But I'm never going to touch anyone else's so how am I going to stop money laundering?

Grammar question time! One of the slides in the seminar I'm in had the bullet points of:
- Lots of data to comprehend
- Data are organized
"Data are organized" looks WRONG to me. Or am I just being clueless?

I got invited to be an external reviewer for some NEH grants. Is it compensated? Of course not. I am sort of getting tired of these pleasant professional honors that don't have any connection to me getting paid. Yes, still not employed.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I always just glue the ends over and down, and then stitch on hook-and-eye fasteners.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Depends on your style but in mine data is treated as plural.

Data is technically a plural, so "data are" is correct. But a lot of people are vague about its plural-ness, and "data is" is also common, so that is probably why it feels wrong.
