Not Fit for Morning

[jocelina]

Over the years I've gotten to be more of a morning person, in that I get up before nine a.m. on the weekends even when I don't have to. I'm not sure why, exactly, because I am still not what anyone would call an actual morning person

Uhm. That's awesome.

Isn't it? Sometimes I wonder if my lack of awareness in the morning should be considered a legal impairment to driving.

I laughed loud enough that Ryan asked me what was causing me to spasm so. ;) I love your pants-sweatshirt confusion. :)

Ha ha, that's awesome! It made me laugh too, and that made my morning significantly better.

For the record, in the mornings, I have:

1. Tried to put on a pullover sweater as a zippered hoodie and been similarly confused in the process.
2. Tried to put on a pair of jeans inside out.
3. Tried to put on a pair of jeans backward.
4. Tried to put on a thong backward.
5. Actually succeeded in donning a sports bra backward, then been confused as to why my boobs wouldn't fit.

i wanted to get a pair of vibram fivefingers, but i was afraid i would never take them off ! how do you find them for sizing ? do you take the same size as your regular footwear ?

I wear a women's 9.5-10 in US sizing, which is roughly equivalent to a 41-42 in European sizing. I wear a FiveFingers 41, and that is appropriately form-fitting but not at all too snug. (That is, the shoes fit closely around my feet but at no point encroach on my foot form or motion.) I could possibly go up a size for solely casual wear (moderate walking) and down a size for more rigorous athletic wear (like, rock climbing), but for what I do (yoga, road and trail running), this size is likely the best.

If you're in an area that sells them in-store (some REIs do, as well as some Foot Lockers -- as well as some independent running/outdoor stores), the best bet is to try and get fitted in person. That said, the second best bet is to take your foot measurement -- in inches -- and use the on-site size calculator.

Hee hee, success! I'm glad it struck other people as funny and not as evidence that I shouldn't be allowed to dress myself. Or at least as funny despite being evidence that I shouldn't be allowed to dress myself.

haha ! ..it didn't have sleeves ..or a hood ! that's hilarious :> you should have just cut out the gitchy and slid the legs over your arms. in all honesty, tho, it's disturbing to think that you've got one thing in your hand and it's something entirely different. maybe it's time to hire some staff, or, get an intern :>

[jocelina]

I totally need an intern!
