One, I'm catching up on Top Chef: Texas recaps. It's slow going because I thought I could get the recipes names off the website. NOPE. They don't put them all up. So Week 8 is here (and last night's will go up later this afternoon.)
Two, I have been talking myself out of buying the sexiest damn pair of boots I have ever laid eyes on (they are walking around-able, even!) because they are one thousand dollars. I do not need to buy myself $1000 boots, not with children that will (we hope) go to graduate school. BUT THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL. It's like the boot fairy said, "Everything Laura likes, let's put in this one shoe." And then Mafalda swooped in and cursed it by making them so expensive. [/obscure reference] I'm married to a finance guy and we pay for everything in cash. Everything. No credit carried over from month to month. I'm going to NYC for a week, I want to spend my money on things there. *Cries* /First World Problems
Three, I had a fake argument in the shower earlier (doesn't everyone do that?) where I imagined being shitty to a woman that was rude to me yesterday.
That was when I started laughing and dropped the soap.
ION, I bought new lovely bras at Nordstrom's after getting refitted and have dropped down a strap size, but not cup size. THANK YOU, P90X for being the ONLY WORKOUT that doesn't make me lose my nice rack. *preens* 32DD, hells yeah LOL.
Dumpling soup time!

Me: Hey, bitch, I bet I can do more push ups than you. Come on. *flexes*
Her: Ehn flehn fleurgh. (she was a whiny-type)
Me: Oh, and they have to be prison-style
Her: What's that?
Me: Naked and with a dick in your mouth.

Ugh, dropping large amounts of cash on things that are unexpected is such a rotten feeling. I'm sorry. :(
Also, my word those are most excellent boots, Miss Laura!
Julia, the goddesses have recently given me a pair of Ralph Lauren cords and a Cynthia Rowley sweater for under $25 bucks each: I guess they like chicken raisers?
*cries*
However, have you seen these?? Not quite what your perfect ones look like, but pretty close! Even as a non-boots girl, I want them!
All Day Heels® technology, created with NASA-engineered PORON cushioning,
I, of course, read that as NASA-engineered PORN cushioning. :)
I totally have imaginary fights in the shower! And while walking Buddy too. I used to have them in the car as well, but once I started listening to audiobooks I dropped the driving rage.
Hail to the DD girls! I'm 34DD myself.
I mean, those shoes have NASA TECHNOLOGY. II just checked because I'm bad and thinking about getting them anyway but they're only in a size FIVE.
FIVE. What?!?!??
(Ha! Boobs and booty, I like you for many reasons.)
I talked myself out of buying a pair of earrings (not nearly so expensive, but earrings!) because we, too, pay off our credit card each month, and my money is going to buy things in New York! Wooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NEW YORK!!!!!!!! I WANT TO BUY THINGS THERE, YES YES YES. <3
Your fake argument could totally kick any fake argument I could come up with's ass, but I would have enough prison savvy to not drop the soap.
AHAHAHAHA. I always laugh if I drop soap in the shower. ALWAYS.
Those boots are pretty awesome. I really want a pair of knee boots, but every time I see a pair I love, they're way too expensive. That price tag would be enough to put me off so I wasn't dreaming about them all of the time.
Can I join the DD club? I too lost inches but not cup size. Sadly my rib cage prevents me from going any lower than 36, but I'm a bigger build so it all looks okay.
Prison style push-ups? I will never complain to my trainer about having to do the regular ones ever again. lol
Yes! All are welcome! And hourglass shapes FOR THE WIN! Haha. (In your face, every magazine and actress that isn't like me.)
Oh, man, they're awesome. Stand - touch your toes and jump back to plank - do a push up - jump to your hands and stand. ONE.
:D (One of my workouts is something like 8 different kinds of push ups? I LOVE THEM. And pull ups, too!)
I've been pondering the Good Credit Rating vs Cash Only issue lately. I've been Cash Only for quite awhile now(except for the mortgage) and I feel so much less stress in my life thanks to that. On the other side is the fact that nearly everyone, even potential employers, look to the number on a Credit Report as the be-all and end-all of a person's worthiness and I'm thinking of applying for other jobs. I checked my report and found that because there's only the mortgage and a small credit card on it, it's almost as if I've been skyping checks and buying multiple sets of those boots with no intent of paying for them. Bah!
In other news, had I been drinking, I would have done a spit-take when I read about your shower argument. As it was, I let out a bark of laughter into the midst of a very quiet office and made myself quite (negatively) conspicuous. I hope you're proud of yourself!
Hahaha, YES I AM PROUD OF MYSELF. :D
Ugh, I envy your boobs. Enjoy them for those of us who were not blessed by the tata gods with a glorious rack.
Ha, well just know how hard it is to find clothes that don't make me look like I'm wearing a sack because I have hips and a small waist, and everything is wispy and full and loose and I look like I'm wearing mumuus. Hope that helps. ;D
Her: What's that?
Me: Naked and with a dick in your mouth.
That was when I started laughing and dropped the soap.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA. I think I just dropped the soap, too.
<3
I love when people can laugh with me as I laugh at myself. Just like Mama taught me. <3
I did buy this pair of pumps from Nordstrom's a few months back and actually paid full price which is very unlike me.
I currently weigh next to nothing and I went from a 36d to a 34c. Apparently the girls are here to stay.
I think some of you girls are just built for tuhs. My sisters and mother are like that. I get a lot of running in, I start shrinking big time. No me gusta.
Hey, Miss Sue! How do you do? I feel like you've either been sucked into the Facebook hole (which I'm avoiding because of crazy older sister) or just plum busy. I LOVE YOU, MISSY.
HAHAHAHA!
I like heels (boy, do I like heels) but I'm going to be walking all over the city, so I want comfort, too.
