tough as nails

I took an awesome strength training class today at my gym. I think I've figured out that I like working out, just so long as I don't have to bounce up and down like a cheerleader or get in touch with my inner sensitive side. When I finish working out, I don't want to feel like I love all my womyn sisters, I want to feel like I could punch through ( Read more... )

and don't rule out getting things that are slightly too large and having them altered to fit...apparently, it doesn't even cost all that much...i'm bringing in a suit to the tailor's tomorrow!

affordably? it sounds like everyone has given you good advice already, but my mother's feeling on the matter (and generally speaking, mine too) is fuck the mall, go for the outlets. outlets are nicer, often cheaper, and less stressful. I don't want to tell you to drive all the way to Lee (though if you are in the area, check it out), but I bet gavin knows where they are in the boston-area. or other people you know.

and don't let global warming fool you- new england gets cold. remember finals week, junior fall, when it was FOUR degrees out and knee deep in snow? and we were on a river too. I think you're primarily concerned with office-y, inner layers of clothing, but my strongest recommendation is down mittens. I can't put too high a price on them.

ha! i need to keep you more up to date on my office situation. if it gets down to four degrees, i will need down mittens inside the office as well. my coworker has crocheted herself wrist warmers, which doesn't seem like such a bad plan to me.

oddly, i've found myself in more NY area outlets this year than MA outlets. go figure.
