After/while getting over my anger/crying fit yesterday from having had the puppy disrespect me, I stayed up late recaulking part of my tub, and ironing all the wrinkled clothes that had accumulated in my closet over the past few months. Went to bed at 3:40am. Was woken up by a phone call from Forestfen, at 1pm today. I haven't managed to sleep so well after going to bed so late, in a looooong time. If the phone hadn't rung, I might have even slept longer. Then I had to get up in order to let the puppy out of the garage. I felt groggy for quite a while.

Doing a puzzle, I didn't recognize that "loll" was a real word. I've become so familiar with the term "LOL", that it has overlaid my familiarity with the word "loll", even though in the beginning, the term "LOL" invoked associations in my mind with "loll" (reading and pronouncing LOL as "loll" in my head invoked mental images of tongues hanging out of mouths and of people idling/lollygagging around, as opposed to laughing).
.
I bought a fancy shirt and pair of pants at JC Penney because they appealed to me, even though I realized that they were too impractical to wear anywhere. The pants are a black shiny, silky, clingy polyester material, with cargo-pants-style side pockets, glittery crystal buttons, a golden chain belt, and leg-cuffs that tie up around the ankles with cords. The shirt is also black, made out of 2 thin shear fabrics and with small front pockets. Wearing a black sports-bra, one can see the shape of the bra through the thin fabric. The pants and shirt make me feel sexy. But I'm not in the habit of going anywhere where it would be appropriate to wear clothing like that. And even if I were, I'd worry about being cold there, if I did wear them. I need to sew some elastic into the pants' waistband. It's size 5 (!). All the sizes, even down to size 2 (!!!) were too wide on my hips, but I chose the size 5 because the others were too tight on my legs. Women's pants styles seem so weird to me. For other type pants, I usually need a size 8 at least for them not to be too tight on my waist. But with the kind which are supposed to ride low on the hips, the waist is always way too large for me, and the legs way too skinny. And the pockets!; most women's pants if they have any pockets at all have *tiny* pockets!

I am going to start looking up at the sky or ceiling whenever Zorro bites on my feet or pants-legs. That's supposed to discourage puppies, since they want your attention and to play. It was working when I tried it earlier today. But then she got hold of the cord from my jacket and kept pulling on it, until I worried it was going to break and rescued it. Seriously... she already tore a big hole in a pair of Q's good trousers, and tore a small hole in my pajama pants, and tore the end off one of my shoelaces. I've been trying not to wear my good clothes and shoes much lately, because I worry that she'll ruin them.

Oh! And I found a connection where I wasn't expecting it, while surfing/browsing friends' profiles and pages. Darkoshi (SC, USA) is friends with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
