Hello All!
I have random interesting thoughts that pop in my head throughout the day, and I wish I could immediately jot them down, for I often forget them quickly. Or perhaps they really aren't that interesting. A recent thought I do recall is my sudden curiosity- when a pet food commercial played on television- if vegetarian/vegan pet owners could or should feed their pets meat? Being neither a vegetarian/vegan or a a pet owner, this dilemma had never crossed my mind. But I'm sure many others have debated this question already. Interesting irony.
Another thought I had this week was how much I missed having a large warehouse of bras at my disposal. Here on campus, I'm no longer surrounded by people who either know how to properly fit a bra (co-workers), or know they need a well-fitted bra (customers). It is oddly frustrating when I hear conversations about bras, and any mention of That Pink Place That Everyone Thinks Is Great will automatically make any comment of mine come out rather snarky. So I usually remain silent. Because if I told them what size I thought they were, 1- they probably wouldn't believe me, and 2-they'd probably be a little weirded out that I observed their chest area so closely.
I can't help it though, and when I see bra bands crawling way up on a lady's back, loose and free and doing nothing for support, I want to tell her there is something better! When I see straps digging into shoulders, desperately trying to hold everything up since the cup is sadly overwhelmed, I want to run to the stockroom, grab the perfect bra, hand the bra to her and say I know I probably look like just some crazy lady with a bra but just try this!
've been debating who to solve this problem, trying to develop a good line or two that will at least hint that I might know a better way to wear a bra in a polite, unobtrusive manner. Oh well.
Sadly I've put off working on my bra pattern development once classes started; I knew there would be an adjustment period to grad school like. But I think I need to try to "fit" my bra development work back into my schedule again... (in all my copious spare time :) )
