Dispatches from the mall

valis2Just went shoping. Bought a fall coat...still need a winter coat, though, but it's hard to find a nice coat for a plus size woman.
Saw a few funny things, though, so of course I had to share.
One store window had two headless mannequins in the window. The headless boy mannequin was holding mistletoe over the headless girl mannequin. Or rather, near where the headless girl mannequin's head should be. I just stared at it.
At the coat store they had bizarre Christmas clothing for babies, including little outfits that said "Santa's Little Helper". But the oddest one, by far, said only "Mrs. Clause" on it. I am not making this up. Apart from the highly questionable rationale that would have a six month old baby married, I must also protest the strange logic that would have this infant marry a portion of a sentence. I suppose the next question would be "independent or subordinate?"
More chai for me! And lovely bubble bath. Yum.
I bought another pair of shoes from Zappos.com and was tremendously delighted that this pair, 12 double wide, actually fit. I have nice dark brown boots finally! Hip hip huzzah! Thank you to the kind person who pointed them out...hmmm...I think it was![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Want to start the new chapter...so many things to cram into it, so little time. Unfortunately some of it has to be done just so, and will take extra time.
All of you doing the Nano...you're insane! I can barely manage 4-8,000 words a month and still stay sane.

I am going nuts waiting for the new Tori CD!!
Did you pick up the "Live in Sunny Florida" DVD? Incredible---I think she includes performances of 20 songs. And there's more talk, btw, of a new Kate Bush album at some point, though I am not going to hold my breath.
I missed you too! We'll have to figure out some time to hang out.
