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.
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.

I heard that. I wonder if they'll still have the same sales.
Connie, I'm sorry.
My credit union is freaking out that we went on vacation and then came home and immediately bought a washer and dryer. I have to call them tomorrow and straighten it out.
I've had good results from Woman Within, which does plus sized clothes.
Man. We got home from camping to the news that our friend who's in the hospital is ready for hospice. I really, really hate this summer. So much.
Damn, Steph. Summer of Suck continues.
Connie, I'm sorry that you subconscious is messing with you. They can be so mean that way.
Why is it that by the time I feel like a halfway decent human, the weekend is over? I need a job that pays twice the money for half the hours. In fact, I had an anxiety dream last night that I had to start working Sundays, my one day off. Gnargh.
eta also the issue with taking Xanax (just a quarter pill) to quell my anxiety enough to Get Shit Done is that half the time I decide I DGAF and am just going to go to bed.
