Has anyone bought stuff from Monroe & Main? I am wondering about the fit? And fabric quality?
I didn't even know they existed until I was looking at Elegant Plus last night.
They have some really cute skirts and dresses, like:

Any info, feedback or advice is appreciated!
Thanks!
Hands down, the Goddess pose. Aside being fun (who knew yoga incorporated jazz hands?), the name alone is enough to make it tops in my book. And you know what? I even feel kind of goddess-ey while doing it. 
No, this is not me doing yoga. It's an illustrative photo that I found on Fit Sugar. Doesn't that look like fun? I'm relatively new to yoga, but am really enjoying it so far. It's the first fitness endeavor I've taken on that's yielded noticeable results immediately. I can feel an improvement in my flexibility over the course of a single class. So that's highly motivational. But you know...I could really use some cute yoga outfits. I think the right clothes could really help improve my balance. And flexibility. And overall well-being. 
When it comes to yoga tops, I like mine to be a little fitted. Otherwise, mine flips upside down and over my head every time I try a downward dog. Not cool. This cuffed t-shirt from Old Navy, on the other hand, is super cool. It comes in a variety of great colors, too.
Old Navy's basic ribbed tanks are also great for working out. They're long enough that you won't be self-conciously pulling the tank down over your hips, and light enough to layer a couple for maximum cuteness.

Danskin Plus Cotton Bootleg Lycra Pant - comfortable and versatile enough that I could meet up with friends for a post-workout cup of coffee (ok fine, glass of wine) without feeling all gym-sey. 
I like these roll-top waist Yoga Capris from Junonia, too. They come in black, white, and ice blue too. It'd be really easy to suddenly find yourself wearing these 24/7, though. They should come with a caution label. Old Navy's basic ribbed tanks are also great for working out.

cheerfulI have two cats that need up to date shots, routine checkup and some de-flea options from this brutal insect infested heat. any recommendations on caring, not over the top expensive options?
X-Files movie....a little disappointing. Not really a bad movie, but totally missing the magic that some of the series had when it was at its best. It's a shame because odds are pretty good that this is the last we'll ever see of those two characters. Also, Scully comes really close to saying "Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor not an FBI agent!" except instead of Jim it would be Mulder. Anyway, a little disappointing.
Damn I am glad it is Friday. Back in high school this is what was called a "blow off day." No one seems to be in charge because LOTS of people took the day off. I am just here sucking up payroll $.

It's been a month since my last post and I will be 25 years old in 5 days.
It's not as big of a milestone and/or ordeal as I would think or like to pretend/act.
Additionally, I think it is my time of the month. And not in that 'I'm gay so I like to pretend I might be a girl that is menstruating' way, but in an uncontrollable paranoia way. Like the people in my life are plotting to kill me for my birthday. I will probably erase that last sentence before the day ends.
I don't know. The monthly episodes have been absent or miniscule in the past few months since Summer started. My interpration of them has been remarkably lax and indifferent. But something today is not allowing me to feel that way about it.
Wow, I am really saying more than I ever do.
So maybe I am still taking it lighter than I used to. Good thing?
Um. I am moving in August. Downtown. With two other people. Who seem to be more excited than I. Which could be the catalyst for my emotional onslaught.
These speakers (at work) are starting to sound like crap.
But I will continue to dance around like a fool.
