Uplifting

OK, I have to write to get this out of my system. When I look down, I'm amazed. I have breasts! OK, so, some may say, yeah, um, you're a woman, what's the big deal? But I'm wearing a new bra that I got for these reasons in order of importance: 1) on sale (half off) 2) fits 3) comfortable 4) pretty. I'm not sure if I should add this as number 5...uplifting (or kind of up and in). You have to realize I have a long history of wearing bras that are inexpensive, NOT fancy and have no padding - I am (was?) a firm believer in 'keeping it real'. But it's REALLY difficult to find something in size A that isn't padded and looks nice and supports the little I have, so I have had to cave. I may be changing my mind since it's kind of neat to have breasts, and hey, it seems to be one piece of clothing I SHOULD pay money for.

I went to go blow dry my hair this morning at the gym, looked at myself in the mirror, and laughed. The other woman there looked at me like I was nuts.

Ok, I'll get over this. Though it is a good thing I can type without looking at the keyboard or screen, since I'm staring at my chest the whole time...

Whoa, I think I just channeled gyuss...

Don't feel bad about staring at your own chest. I've been staring down my shirt most of the morning.

Whoa, I think you did.
I just feel so 'out there'. Weird.

If it's osmething that can make you giggle in the morning and give a lift (pun completely intended) to your day then of course you should spend money on it. There is only one place I will buy my bras from - they're my one luxury and it is totally worth it.
Yea for pretty! Yea for support!

There is almost nothing I hate more than bra shopping. I am all for staring at your own breasts. It's a good thing. enjoy the "look".

9 letters for word verification is way too many ... it took me 3 tries to get them right.

OK, Es. I have turned off word verification. Will try that for a while. Dags said it didn't make a difference, so we'll see if he's right.
