looking forward to later

Ah, virtue won out. I decided not to go to yoga. The class also runs on Wednesday evenings, and hopefully I will be feeling better by then. I previously eschewed the Wednesday evening class because it ended at 9pm, which interfered with Project Runway. However, once Austin was booted off (divawho, that is SOOOOOOO awesome your friend spotted him!) I've decided to boycott the remaining episodes of the competition. I'll admit I watched the reunion special, though. Wendy seemed really smug, even when they all took turns attacking her, so I suspect she won the entire thing. Is there no justice in this world?!

I'm getting some suits and a pair of jeans altered later this morning. People often marvel at my petite size (even more so when they witness how much I consume at mealtimes) but they don't understand how much effort is needed for the wardrobe situation. Despite having freakishly long arms and legs given my proportions, I often need hemline alterations. I occasionally need sleeves shortened or waists nipped in. I adore the seamstress I go to, her prices are so reasonable and she is very friendly. I always leave there with a smile.

Later this afternoon, I am doing something even more special. My boyfriend actually wants to go shopping for himself! This is a rare event. Like, once or twice a year. I loooooooove playing stylist. It is even better when he wears what I pick out (or let him think he picked out after guiding him to it with subtle postive reinforcement) and is satisfied with it. People in flattering attire radiate confidence, and that is my goal when I act as personal shopper for friends and family.

When you said you wanted to act as a stylist for your boyfriend, the Queer Eye "All Things Just Keep Getting Better" theme song popped int my head! Haha.

Feel better!
