I think today has a theme...

(Well, it does obviously have a much more important theme than what I'm talking about, but I feel incapable of the task of putting more serious feelings to words at the moment.)

Wow, what a response! For those of you that saw the note late, don't despair. It was buried in the post, but the "first come first served" is based on when I actually receive measurements. It was the most fair way I could think of to do it, since actually taking the measurements is more effort than posting a "yes please!". I'll try to update status occasionally, so if there are 47 people in line and you don't want to wait that long, you're not killing yourself looking for your measuring tape.

I also went bra shopping tonight. I've always had decent luck in Nordstroms, but tonight I managed to walk out with the only two bras in the store in my size. I was hoping for three. Apparently, I've grown and shrunk all at the same time - I'm a band size smaller and a cup size bigger than I was last time I bought bras (probably about a year ago). Frequently, this can happen because the bras weren't fitting right in the first place, but when I bought them, they did fit, as I know perfectly well how they're supposed to fit. I *have* lost, gained, and lost weight since the last time, so maybe that had something to do with it.

In any case, I guess the line between G and H is the line at which many manufacturers stop. Dang it. And yet, I'm *still* too small to qualify for insurance-paid reduction. Grr.

Have you ever tried turning your sewing skills toward making a supportive modern undergarment? ;) I wonder how far of a leap it is from "fitted gown bodice" to "longline bra."

I lift em, but they end up mostly squished together, not separated. I have heard of people who do that, though.
