TMI time With Melle: I'm cramping and I want to go hoooooome. *sulks*

Okay, people, somebody pimp some fic at me? I want to print out some stories to read while I go and lie on the grass during my breaks, as long as the weather stays this way. It's too hot to actually walk around, and I've made it a mission to get something resembling a tan by the time I go home in August, so my mother will refrain from mentioning how pale I look and I should get out more, blah blah blah motheringcakes. Anyway. Recs? Anyone?

Also, a (not quite) pointless poll. I have a white t-shirt. I do not have a white bra. I also skipped school on the day they taught Basic Girly Crap, apparently. Help?

Depends on how much you care? *g* I do believe a black bra under a white shirt is not exactly the done thing (usually skin-coloured is the best, because somehow, even white bra's (is it bra's or bras? Hm.) show through), but hey, consider it asserting your personality. ;-) (And if you don't have a white bra, don't you have a shirt that's not white? Also, how on earth did you get a hold of so many black bra's? Mine are mostly white, because they're the most regular...)

Um. I only have a single bra. And I hate wearing anything but black underwear.

And I hate wearing anything but black underwear.

Why's that?

Just preference, really. Also, black doesn't turn all icky yellow from deodorant the way white does. :)

Should we take you bra shopping? That could be fun!

... On the one hand, I hate shopping, and I dislike bras.

On the other hand, the concept of bra shopping with this mysterious "we" is ... appealing.

Hmmm.... well then. I will recruit my mysterious "we" to be more interesting than the Royal We that I may have been thinking of. That was *hours* ago, and I have no short term memory after work.

Also, TICKY! BOXY!

See, normall I'd have assumed "we" = you and Don, but Don doesn't strike me as the type to enjoy long shopping trips. <g>

He can always shake his new cane at people and make them move faster.
Plus, be brings the credit card with the REALLY big credit limit. *cough*

Don't just go shopping for a bra. Go get actually fitted. Trust me when I say you'll like bras a lot more if you have one that actually fits. And you really shouldn't have just one bra, unless you're actually washing it every night. Bras stretch as you wear them, and washing (in cold water is best, and you're not supposed to put them in the dryer, although I do) tightens up the elastic again.

Oh, trust me, next time I go bra shopping, there will be fittage. This one was bought for me by my mum, who, much as I love her, is an A-cup at best and therefore doesn't quite grasp that my C-cup and I have need of things like wider shoulder straps. Which is one of the reasons why I didn't wear a bra for like a year, and that is the reason I only have the one bra, sigh.

I do plan on going to get fitted, finding a bra I like, and then buying several, possibly including one in a slightly larger size for That Time Of The Month.

I find that I don't need a whole different bra when I'm retaining water. I just loosen the straps a bit, and that works fine.
