Wouldn't you know it, CS was canceled this morning. I guess it is possible for everyone in the class to get sick or be absent for spring break at the same time. (well there are only like eight people in the class anyway.) And here I was making the effort to show up on time for once. :)

No matter. I instead took off for downtown and the bike shop, there to very sweetly harangue the monkey-wrenchers there about the fact that Bellenoire's grip shift now doesn't stay in place but instead snaps back to 1, which is kinda scary when you're trying to do anything remotely like pedaling whilst going downhill (I had to literally hold it on 3), not to mention that the problem I initially brought her in for (pedals going kaCHUNK whilst accelerating or going uphill) is still happening. They all got the tweaky "oh shit, we fucked up" looks on their faces and told me to come back for her this afternoon. Hmm. depending on what the problem is, I might still have time for a ride later. We'll see.

Made my way slowly back, taking the opportunity to window shop a little, as it had been a while since I'd spent any time downtown Forgot to mention there's a new place in Thornes that rents anime, hope they find some slightly bigger space to work out of, but for now they're cool. :) Saw a top in the Mercantile and decided to give the cashier a hard time about it - I know it's made in bigger sizes than M. I saw it in an xxl there a couple of years ago and didn't buy it then cause it was the wrong color, but I haven seen it even in an xl since then. Stupid goth/medieval clothing people... *grumble* anyway, got the label and the product number for the top, going to see if I can find it on ebay or around the net someplace. Still on my way home, actually, as I'm in the IKEA outlet cum student center currently.

And onward to the rest of my day.

I had the Mercantile in Amherst special-order my Belladonna dress for me. Maybe they could do the same with that top for you? If you can find it on eBay I'm sure it'll be cheaper; if not, I'd inquire about a special order.)

Hmm, there's an idea. The Northampton chickie told me they didn't do special orders, but maybe the Amherst one does. Right-o then. I'll have to look into that, especially as I can't find it online, though if you look up "plus size goth" on ebay ... *drool*
