I like silk long underwear for that purpose. It can be too warm for in the office, though.

Y'all, we have like a dozen turkeys lounging on our grass out by where the trucks pull through to the loading docks. I have never seen so many!

Shrift, how much will they charge to send them out to you? A lot, I bet.

Argh. Okay. That does make a difference.

At the dentist. Joy. Rapture. The best way to spend an hour or so (please, please, please be less than that).

I bought a bunch of new furniture when we moved. Mainly a combo of wanting to get rid of some hand me downs and needing to.find things that fit better in my new space. I'm glad I did it, but man, the cost.

Thanks, Lee!

I've been to plenty of cons. If there aren't any celebrities or panels you want to see, then you should do the math on the cost of the ticket. People-watching can be fun if you've never been to a con, but it's not something I can or want to do all day. Plus huge crowds are not relaxing. If you're not going to any panels or buying any merch, then maybe skip this one and go to the beach.

Yeah, the ticket isn't that expensive, and my friend isn't planning to go until mid-afternoon, which sounds actually better for me. I'm going!

ION, I feel like I can't tell how old anyone is anymore, and also people my age can be at any stage in their career. I just had to ask for birthdates on a bunch of our leadership, and it's fascinating! I was right that one of them is about 50, but now wish I had known it was actually his 50th birthday a couple of months ago. Also our CFO is significantly younger than me, which I knew in my heart, but not on paper.

I'm drafting a request for my medical records. This is one of those things that should go in an Adulting class.

Low cost + not actually spending the entire day there = have An Experience, Jesse!

Sock Dreams has good plus-size tights, as do We Love Colors. [link]

Places like Roaman's and Lane Bryant will also have good tights, and have started carrying the miraculous fleece-lined tights in autumn/winter.

waiting until I find a Dr. in San Francisco and sending a request to have my medical records sent there?

That's pretty standard though, isn't it?

Plumber has been and gone, toilet needed a new wax ring, but of course the fittings were slightly off-of-standard, which is typical for this house, which was apparently built by someone who got good deals on close-out construction materials.

Knee-high things might be a good move, I'm only worried about moving from house to car to work or wherever, and I like calf-length skirts. Thank you for all the searches!

eta: These look just about perfect.
