Bras are confusing. After reading a bunch of advice about getting a professional fitting, I went to Nordstrom this weekend in hopes of finally solving the case of: what’s my bra size? I figured I was either a 34B or a 36A and it seems to vary from bra to bra. The lady at Nordstrom, after making me try on at least twelve different bras, didn’t have anything helpful to say to me.

If you’re scared of all this boob talk, click over to this youtube video of an interpretive dance of Natalie Imbruglia’s Torn with a cameo by Natalie. It’s pretty funny and I like her even more now that she’s willing to poke fun of herself.

I used to think that when you get a bra fitting, you’d have to take everything off, and they’d do all sorts of tape-measure voodoo and arrive at your ideal bra size. Apparently, that’s not so. All the lady did was measure my band size (with my shirt on) and then throw bra after bra at me and tell me how they look on. Maybe she was scared of seeing nipples or something.

I’ve been annoying the guys at SelfEdge all weekend because I’m waiting for them to get a shipment of these jeans in. I called on Friday and they told me it was stuck in customs and to call back the next day. Same thing on Saturday. I gave them a break and didn’t call them on Sunday. I called them today. Still stuck in customs. I think the guy who keeps picking up the phone hates me. He’s being pretty good natured about it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he thinks, “Oh god, not another day without Skulls! That annoying girl is going to call again!”

edit: Oh noes. I just read on the forums that they finally got the shipment in. But now I’m scared of calling the store because that guy will recognize my voice and I don’t want to annoy him anymore. I wish these were available for online ordering.
