Sorry, I should have been more specific--that sell lots of clothes and shoes and suchlike. (The book depository sounds like fun, but I pretty much exclusively do ebooks these days. Well, other than the travel guides. I decided I much prefer traveling with a paper guidebook)

Our wings are not tired.
I find I order clothes from JC Penny pretty often.

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

Ha! I am undaunted ,and can provide useless recommendations in this space as well! I buy clothes online from Ron Bennett: [link] Note that this is both an Australian retailer, and a purveyor of men's clothing.

No ideas on the clothing front. I'm still trying to figure out what to do without Coldwater Creek.

Can I just say, BT, that Australian and NZ tv make me want to live in your hemisphere...a lot.
I _loved_ the most recent season of Masterchef so much...while I cannot bear the American version.
House Husbands, Winners and Losers, Serangoon Road, The Almighty Johnsons (now available on Syfy), Mr & Mrs. Murder...I can't get enough.
Do you have any favorite shows to recommend?
meara, in re: clothes online...I tend to not do a lot of shopping that way because I get overwhelmed by the sheer volume of choices, however, I find the search engine on the macy's dot come site to be super helpful in this regard. You can narrow things down to a ridiculous degree.
Being a short, round person who eschews patterns, prefers black and doesn't do polyester, it is a joy to go from 'cargo pants = 756 results' to 'pickyness = 6 results'.

Hee. I've never really thought of our TV as being that exportable. I'm afraid I don't watch much of it myself - about the only thing I watched on a network schedule this year was Orphan Black. (Which remains obstinately not Australian.)

We are going to Kid Weekend on the weekend of the Dr Who premiere, on my actual birthday. It was a quandary; thank god for DVR.

Meara, I haunt ASOS a lot. So much of their clothes are trendy in a forever 21 way, but there's some good stuff to be found. Not always cheap, but shipping is free and I've never been nabbed by customs.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
sj, Coldwater Creek was bought and plans to open online later this year. Whether they'll still have the same quality of clothing, on va voir. In the meantime, have you looked at NorthStyle? I find them to be very similar.
I also love everything I've gotten from Duluth Trading.

I dreamed of Hubby again last night. An awkward situation where I needed his help. Doubly upsetting, because I knew it was wrong that he was there and I knew that the next awkward situation of that type, I wouldn't have his help. But my subconscious has to work this out its own way. Bah.
