I just realized that I will be in Vegas in two months, which means I need to go swimsuit shopping. I'm wanting a tankini type thing, and I'm braving the mall tomorrow to see what might be immediately available. What/who do my people recommend for fat woman swimsuits?
You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
People in my office are just going to keep doling out leftover Halloween candy for months.
My coworker mentioned today that her husband believes men are discriminated against. And I have a relative on FB who's incensed that the New Orleans City Council voted to take down four statues of Confederate leaders.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My mother just asked me, "Are Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker both from Star Wars? Are they related to each other?" I'm not sure whether to answer her or go get the DVDs and make her watch the movies.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Jus don't tell her about Darth Vader being divinely conceived.

At this time of year, your best bet may be in a large department store. (That's just a guess; I've bought my swimsuits online for the past many years.)

Good luck with the job situation, sarameg.
I hope all the overworked, over-scheduled, and overwhelmed get a good break soon.

I get tomorrow off, so that'll help.

I was going to say this. My most recent swimsuit purchase was Lane Bryant (in store), but that was closer to swimsuit season. The suit before that was either Lane Bryant catalog [link] or Roaman's. [link]

Catching up after much too long ...
I clicked on a lot of the music links - some of the carols I really love. I do prefer the older, more traditional ones. I was reading a collection of Connie Willis stories and one - All Seated on the Ground - was inspired by her years of singing in a choir. I have not been LDB'd yet, but I've been avoiding stores.
Sadly, the local Barnes & Noble - the last chain bookstore in town - is closing this month. Good for my wallet, bad for my book accumulation. I've avoided the public library for years because I'd had so much trouble with returning books that were never checked in and being charged for the books when I couldn't return them ... except for the cases when I could go and pull them off the shelves. I may have to try them again - I've been feeding much of my book habit with either remaindered books or a local used book store that is (1) very cheap and (2) uses the money to fund a literacy program.
The office party is Friday, but I'm taking the day off ... I'm really not in the mood for enforced hilarity, games, etc.
