It took eons for orange to become a trendy color in my lifetime, and now that it is, I want it to stop, because that's my color, damnit.

I'm annoyed at trends that make it hard to find boot-cut pants and blunt-toed shoes. The search for women's shirts with a long torso seems to be a lost cause.

I'm glad I can find Gloria Vanderbilt jeans again, they seem to fit my hips and waist quite well. Lee and Levi do okay but I can never remember which cut is the one that works for me and have to try on everything available. I suspect that my One True Jean is still out there untried on because I don't even know where to look for the pricey brands. Some day I'll make a quest of it.

Today I drew the last artwork assignments for the project that's occupied the majority of my waking hours for the past 15 months. Feels very good to be done (barring any last minute revisions by the client during review)! I celebrated by picking up a crawfish po' boy on the way home, and my cats are celebrating with a canned salmon dinner in their new metal dual feeding dish, which heads off them begging me for the aforementioned crawfish po' boy..

I stock up on jeans at Lane Bryant when they're half off (or BOGO). Their Right Cut jeans in the blue cut (that's the biggest waist-to-hip ratio) fit me really well and make my ass look SO GOOD.

I was just at Lane Bryant and didn't even think to look at their jeans! Ah, well, it had been a long day and I did think to get dress pants, which I love enough to get the same style in two different colors.

I love the blue cut, but now all of their jeans have stretch in them. I just want some damned denim!

I have no words left for today. Everything I'd planned to do got shoved off the table and I fell down a coding hole. I had planned this whole week to play catch up on maintenance tasks. NSM. Brain hurts. Send ifthenelse statements.

Happy birthday, Good Stuff, too! You know, I subscribe via RSS and don't actually click on the posts most of the time because, I don't know, reasons, but just scrolling past and seeing the subject lines usually gives me a lift.

The Lucky ones are a win for me because their medium rise stays above my panty line at all times.

I should check those out!

I don't understand why people think stretch would be slimming. I need the material to hold its own shape, not conform to mine!
