@TransFat: I have a complex about having supportive shoes, but I've also learned the wonders of arch supports. Especially ones that don't have heels attached, because those ones tend to life my feet right out of the shoes. I use these with heels: [www.footsmart.com]

@jenjen: And that might have been the key- that they didn't get oppressive with it. I remember being handed a piece of paper that encouraged me to "think of a new job title for yourself! For instance, instead of saying you're a 'receptionist,' call yourself a 'smile dispenser.'" As a receptionist, you can imagine

I was particularly put off that they chose a symbol with religious undertones, but when my boss started quoting their platitudes at me I brought in my Demotivators and quoted right back.

You missed the best part of the story - King's answer: "Dear Nikki Finke,

@tiredfairy: "Let me rest in peace, let me get some sleep, let me take my love and bury it in a hole 6 foot deep. I can lay my body down but I can't find my sweet release, so let me rest in peace.

Sewing Jezzies: I'm in way over my head. I decided to make blankets as Christmas presents for the babies in the family. Most of them I'm just going to do fleece, but for the two oldest I'm actually cutting and sewing all these beautiful silks that I had. I'm almost done with the front of the first one, but I'm not

@ardentlilac: HGTV had a show for a while that was only reveals from all their shows for the week cut into one half-hour show. I don't know if it was canceled or if it's just between seasons, but it was fabulous. #openthread

@Sanfo: Never had a dog be upset that I was gone, only excited that I was back. The cats, on the other hand... #openthread
