Another Monday pastiche

[magid]

Which is worse, severe pain or intense itch?

Winter peeve: businesses that don't shovel their sidewalks. (OK, people, too, but businesses bother me even more.)

If zamboni were a kind of pasta, I wonder what shape it would be.

Consumed: the first donuts of the year. Mmmm... donuts.

I need to find somewhere selling long skirts, preferably not online, since I prefer to try things on*. The last two places I tried (TJ Maxx, Marshalls) only had skirts down to not-very-far, which is not what I'm looking for. Suggestions appreciated.
*Actually, I tend to hate clothes shopping, because of all the trying on, going back to the racks, going to try more things on, but it's better than getting something that doesn't fit right**.
**Yes, I could send it back. I know I won't, though.

I'm almost out of the produce delivered last week. Must decide: bigger box every other week, or same small box every week? Bigger boxes get more interesting stuff, but then there's potential storage issues. It'd be cheaper to get the big box, though. *ponder*
Oh, and a side effect of getting the produce: I'm continuing to shop less in big box supermarkets. On the whole, this is a good thing.

Hope there's still skin left!

Pain is worse. You can scratch an itch, and scratching does produce a pleasurable sensation...at least while there's still skin there. But what can you do about severe pain?

For me, itch is worse. Pain you can fight against, and painkillers generally work, when it comes down to it. But itchiness... they tell you not to scratch, and they're right, because that makes it worse, and it's itchier, or the area of itch is larger, and most of the time nothing helps alleviate the itch. I've woken up in the middle of the night wishing I could flay my hands and be done with it...

Garment District. They always seem to have a lot of long skirts.

A quick scan led me to see "Garment District" as the response to "But what can you do about severe pain?"

Good thought. I tend not to think of them other than for more... adventurous clothes. Hopefully there will be something that will fit.

Macy's had an enormous selection of long skirts when I was there doing shopping for wedding clothes.

Worse than either pain or itch, I think, is nausea.

Macy's. Y'know, I'd never've thought to look there; I think my assumption is that all their stuff is pricey and likely too fancy for what I want. I think there's one downtown I can stop by at some point, too. Thanks.

I've been lucky enough to not have nausea much, though it's been uncomfortable when I have. I wonder what other unpleasant sensations I've forgotten...

If zamboni were a kind of pasta, I wonder what shape it would be.

Especially flat, wide linguine.

[magid.livejournal.com]

Hee!

Not long, flat ovals?

[danger-chick.livejournal.com]

What ever the shape, it's going to be really smooth.

and cool to stare at. the zamboni is like the most awesomest thing to watch ever, because no one can resist it.

i can't imagine pasta that fascinating.
