Happy birthday, tommyrot!
I'm wearing drawstring linen palazzo pants, with the very wide leg. It feels like a complete surrender to middle-aged fatness, but my god, these pants are comfortable.
My traveling companion K. wore those the whole time on our Ireland trip. She said they were the most comfortable pants ever. I think I'll surrender and buy a pair. Where did you get yours?
I may need a fast trip to Ireland.
Oh, Ireland. LOL.

Online, at WomanWithin.com. I've bought most of my clothes from then for the past year or so. I've actually found clothes that fit.
edit: what's really annoying is even the Petite sizes are way too long for my stubby little legs. I had to order regular capri length to fit, and even they're about an inch too long. I'll have to bite the bullet and get the others I ordered hemmed.
Ah, that's where Katie got hers!
I was able to order bras that actually match my measurements from there.
Interesting article, Jesse. I do tend to find advertisements fun to listen to on podcasts.
Related to weird style guides for publications:
Our style is to not use "over" for time -- like, instead of "Rates increased over the past decade," it would be "Rates increased during the past decade."
But I cannot come up with alternate phrasing for "over time" that doesn't sound ridiculous. "Rates increased during time"? NOPE. "Rates increased across time"? Um...weird. "Rates increased throughout time"? Also weird.
I'm stumped on this one.
"Rated increased in a positive correlation with the arrow of time."
I think "across time" is a common enough phrase.
I think "across time" is a common enough phrase.
Really? It sounds weird to me, although that could just be the way that ANY word will sound weird if you say it enough (tartlet).
