My son is studing Architecture/Design at UF and wants to go see the Newport Mansions.... so that is the plan for today. Hope it doesn't rain too hard so we can enjoy it a bit.

Fracking New England weather.

heh. welcome to my world.

this morning i was woken up at 5.30 by very strong rain, and in a panic i leapt out of bed and ran to see if my living room was flooding again.

yes, it is. it's very hard to find a good fit.

ooh, i hate that. it happens to me too. most often when whatever else i am wearing will make it most difficult to retrieve the guilty strap and put it back where it belongs (like a shirt with tight, not-stretchy sleeves, and a small neckline).
in japan, bra fitting has been refined to somewhere between art and science. i have a friend who lives there and she described once in detail the experience of buying a bra in a japanese shop. not for the timid, let's say !
