Women have them. They contain no muscles, only fat and various glands. This means they are susceptible to gravitational effects increasing proportionally with mass. For proper adherence to current Western sartorial standards (as well as for the comfort of their owner) they are generally held to the upper chest with the assistance of a garment ( Read more... )

Today I went to Bed, Bath and Beyond to finally spend the gift card I got for Christmas. I wanted to get a one-handed pepper grinder to improve my culinary multitasking abilities, but I did not. I did not because I had a whole list of girlification things I had to buy instead. I was out of foundation and body lotion, I needed a sharpener for my ( Read more... )

As many of you know by now, I got my hair cut. Really cut, by far the shortest I've ever had it. I've gotten used to feeling the ends brush up against the top of my neck, and now that it's suddenly hot I'm happy not to have a heavy ponytail blocking the breeze.

It's now just below shoulder length, layered and shorter in the front to frame my face. If I ever see another human ( Read more... )

Yesterday I bought a bikini. Yes, you read that right. It's aqua blue with a halter, it fits perfectly and I look cute in it. I almost got the string bikini bottoms, but chickened out at the last minute. As if this in itself is not amazing enough, I managed to find and purchase said bikini in less than an hour after starting to shop, in the first ( Read more... )
