"That I Would be Good Even if I Lost Sanity..."

Excitingly enough, we were robbed last night.

At church to-day, Shirley took one look at me and started pulling at my shirt and saying, "Oh, you need to cover up your bra straps!". She kept poking my shirt and trying to make it modest. It's a soft white tank top that goes under a much prettier crinkly white long-sleeved blouse that's meant to be worn open. Maybe I shouldn't wear it any more! This is the second time someone's commented that it's revealing.

(the first time, it was one of the librarians. There was a boy who had removed his shirt in the library, and I went back to let her know, and I said, "There's a boy who isn't wearing a shirt--". She said, "Neither are you," and looked at me pointedly. As I said! I should probably stick to wearing it at home, seeing as it elicits such a response.)

In any case, they took the CD players out of the cars, Mama's digital camera, and my car keys; as far as we can tell, nothing else. I remain glad we're moving--I assume the Mennonite neighbours won't do this.

At church to-day, Rog gave me a colouring book of anatomy, a college-level colouring book! XD I love it. I need to write him a very pretty thank-you note. Eheehee.

(This song in my subject line, I need to upload it; it always makes me cry. It's very--meaningful. To me. Amy gave it to me; Amy has this way of knowing what will touch me.)

I'm confused--last I checked, spaghetti-strap tanktops were still considered acceptable clothing outside of Catholic high schools, and there is no way in hell those EVER cover bra straps (but what do I know? I think bras are torture devices and avoid wearing them. God knows how many people I've horrified by demonstrating that women do, in fact, have nipples).

...can you tell this sort of thing is a sore point for me?

Well, that was what I was wearing, I think. My bras are mostly sports bras, unfortunately, so they don't cover up well.

XD I only wear them because I have too much in the chestal region not to.

It's silly, though--you can't cover anything with a strap 1/2" wide, unless you glue your shirt to your bra or something.

(I am still bitter about being told I wouldn't be cold if I didn't dress like a slut when I was wearing a--*gasp*--fitted t-shirt. I love not living in Focusville anymore.)

I do like that mental imagine.

(...Dude. That's crazy.)
