Girls, I know we talked about this before, so sorry.... BUT it has now happened to me. It appears that I have been wearing the wrong size bra the last 2 years. I am a little upset at how large my boobs actually are. ugh.

Courtney! Pictures!

A lot of women learn they have been wearing the wrong size when they get properly fitted. Happened to me too.

[ENluv12]

I think I was in denial about how large the girls are. I got 3 new bras today though. That is always fun.

[chiapet]

That almost evetyone is in denial is part of the reason we wear the wrong sizes. People think a = small, b = normsl, c = big, and everything bigger than that is porn star sized

[chairmenmeow47]

not to mention that many stores seem to ignore many bra sizes.

speaking of bras, i found one of those moving comfort bras at the dillards clearance center in my size (only sports bra i saw too) for $7!!!!!

oh, and this is probably an odd thing to give away, but i have some nice 34D bras i'm getting rid of since i've realized my correct size and have finally amassed a decent collection in that size. does anyone want them? i'll ship them to you, pm me.

[algunz]

I really wish I could say yes.

I got my eyebrows waxed yesterday, she fucked up and I have a bald spot in the middle of my left brow. I didnt realize it until I got,home. Not only did I pay for this shit but I gave her a tip too. Grrr.

[chairmenmeow47]

ha, i didn't notice it until you said something.

my face looks like shit. thank god the guy never followed-up on the first date that was supposed to happen today. all sorts of zits, gross. this coming off cymbalta and feeling sick and sleepy all the time shit needs to end.

[amyzzz]

That looks great, Courtney, even if it is just air-dried.

I like it, Courtney! Much more professional, I think.

[ThatGirl]

Lovely Courtney! Flattering cut.

1. I'm slightly confused - I just went to refill my birth control and the total was $0. I don't know WHEN my plan started fully subsidizing it, or if it's just some weird computer glitch, but I am definitely not complaining.
2. I never realized before how versatile and fabulous a good black maxi dress is.

[ENluv12]

1= awesome!
2= I totally agree.

Obamacare. Mandatory (more or less) birth control coverage started January 1, 2013.

How I read this the first time.

[miscorrections]

Right right, but insurers get some freedom about which ones they'll cover and which ones they won't. I was pleased that mine is.

ps nice 'do, courtney!

Thanks Ivy.

So can someone please give me a tutorial on what the best way is to politely say no to a dude asking for your number? I am sure that a lot of you encounter this issue a lot more than I do. I find it easy if the guy is being a jerk. But if he's genuinely trying and sort of awkward and not douchey, it's just so heartbreaking to say no.

Today while waiting for the bus, a guy came up to me and complimented me on my tights (plain, black) and then after an awkward two minute silence asked me for my number, at which point I said no. And then he asked me if I wanted his number, and then I said no again. And then he looked so sad.

I don't even know. How do you all handle it?

[tricorne]

"I'm actually seeing somebody, but it's sweet of you to ask."

[Courtney]

You would think that would be a deterrent, but in my experience that only makes them try harder, like it's some sort of challenge.

[tricorne]

That's the point at which you're not obligated to be polite, then.

[Courtney]

That seems reasonable.

I should also say for the record that I admire the guts it takes to go out on a limb and ask a stranger for a number. I find the mere thought terrifying.

[tricorne]

I always just assume people who approach without knowing me already are fairly indiscriminate and therefore can't be hurt much by a rejection, even if it's delicate.

Sometimes you just have to take down their number, then never call or recognize them again. Also, never tell them your real name, it helps!
