And I dont knwo why. It isnt the usual suspects. Not a new bra, not pms, not pregnant, not breast cancer (according to my gyno). fuck. what is it? are they growing? can a woman of a certain age suddenly have a growth spurt in the tits if there is no weight gain elsewhere?

I hope they don't explode.

(Dr.s warn that brit-ho Jordan's boobs may explode if a leach gets to them during the filiming of the brit "get me out of here, I'm a celebrity).

The British reality shows are so much cooler than ours.

Agreed. I had a blind date once with a guy who wore a polo shirt over a long sleeved t-shirt. Yes, this was his normal work attire (IT guy at a college). No second date based on attire alone. Damn my high standards!

Disagree. STRoNGLY!

I think it looks cool.** On the weekends, I usually wear a long-sleeved t-shirt (a nice one) in one color (my fave is forest green, second fave is darkish teal -- kind of like the default color of the lawtalkers background if you're really curious), and then a contrasting color (often purple, but sometimes light blue) over it, and then my many-colored cardigan. I look smashing, I tell you! (My husband calls the t-shirt combo the surfer look -- but what does he know?)




**Please do not bring up my spirited defense of the cardigan-tied-around-the-shoulders strategy as evidence of my sartorial ignorance, or as proof that I'm talking out of my butt. The sweater thing is not looks-based, but climate-control based. Granted, I'm not as offended by the look as, say, oh, I don't know... THURGREED [imagine Church Lady saying "SATAAAN"]... but you won't catch me defending the sweater-around-shoulders as something to plan, a look to aspire to, or a fashion "do".

I'm so good at this. And it's not even Sausage Awareness Month yet.

Funny how sausage awareness month falls in the same month as Valentine's Day and Spring Break.

I saw Martha Stewart on the news the other day and she was sporting that look. I never would have noticed it before but all of a sudden Thurgreed was talking in my head.

All the guys I date dress like this. I don't see any non-hetero connection.

I miss Int'l Male. Though, I think he should switch his allegiance (HOW THE FUCK IS THAT SPELLED????) to TGI Friday's now that they have the Atkins-approved menu.

The International Male is not a fattie. He is just big boned.

But how would you feel if your husband wore these clothes?

Not for him, silly. To help him please the diet-fad-obsessed American women.

Or the French Connection purple velvet 6 button blazer with a spread collar that I just got from Bluefly. $70! And it fits perfectly.

Bluefly, in this case, apparently being some sort of codename for "Prince's closet".

I watched Angel last night. I thought eh. It could be because I had to tape it and then I watched it after a conference call that went from 9:00 til past 11:00, an annoying, irritating conference call that made me want to reach through the phone and strangle someone.

But actually no, I think it just wasn't very good.

Now, as far as sausage awareness month, I am intrigued. What must I do to show I am aware of, nay, fond of sausages?

Please tell me.

Let's take a poll! How many of us are Penske?

Please. Some of us are vegetarians.

Is it bad to make an appointment to be shown a house that one has no intention of buying (at this time)?
