IPEX

Have you heard of this IPEX thing from Victoria's Secret. It's being billed as "the world's most advanced bra". Could someone tell me please what exactly the most advanced bra should do?? I just don't get it, and I think it's really funny to think about little men in white coats trying to figure out how to get the world's most advanced bra.

I had a massage done last night with my "New Age" massage therapist. I feel so much better. My shoulders aren't as tense, but she doesn't give nice little relaxing massages. She basically beats the shit out of you. I'm sure if I looked at my back in the mirror it would be completely bruised.

I just got home from spending a fortune and 2 hours getting new glasses, but I desperately need them. The price of glasses is ridiculous. Of course, I guess I didn't really need to get the Anne Klein frames. I can't wait to go pick them up. I'll try to post pictures.

Did you know you can get very fabulous, very stylish glasses at Wal-Mart for as low as $54.00 a pair, and yes, there are good ones at $54.00 a pair! AND THAT INCLUDES THE LENSES!!! Does take them about 5 days to make them though.

Eric thinks that IPEX is too high tech of a name for a bra. I agree. The commercial is on CONSTANTLY -- it's annoying! Besides, doesn't it look exactly like the other ones?

K - I should have gone for WalMart, but I was trying to use my health insurance, and they only take it in some places. But I am very pleased with my new glasses and sunglasses.

J - IPEX reminds of APEX and that's the company that makes all my supplements for the gym. It's just weird!

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...

Time to Share? I have a huge crush. I have a huge crush on a man I've never met in person. I have a huge crush on a man who does things that are very cool. Yesterday in the mail I got the book that he sent me...the book that he wrote...a book about all of his travels and adventures. The more I read this book, the less confident I start to feel about this being a possible "match". I have no idea what I can offer this older, more sophisticated, more worldly man. The biggest adventures in my life are grappling with 18-year old freshmen for a parking space at school, finishing a set of push-ups and pull-ups at the gym, or wrestling my daughter to the ground for a bath. Maybe I can teach him all about Sponge-Bob Square Pants? This is again one of those times where things seem too good to be true. The emails we send back and forth would suggest that there is a great interest and curiosity on both sides, and that something really good could possibly come from this!!! His ...
