Am wearing tights and sipping hot chocolate, a rainy morning-inspired moment, and watching in complete horror as the sun comes out.

No! It's too damn hot to be wearing tights if indeed is going to be a sunny day!

Now, would be one thing entirely if had not checked weather.com before making wardrobe selections this morning. But did indeed check and was led to believe (by weather.com liars) that was going to be rainy and dreary and that wearing tights was a fabulous idea (made even more fabulous by the thought that would not have to shave my legs for yet another morning). How easily led astray!

Perhaps have jumped the gun on autumn fashions, but don't care. Have missed wearing the many protective layers keeping the general public from realizing that have spent too much time with Ben & Jerry (Dear God, thank you for control top. Amen) and far too little time with a good, sharp razor.

I am in the same boat as you, Fish: Been looking for an excuse to wear new cute corderoy blazer for *ages.* The best I could get was the 5 minutes I stood on deck in a boat in Boston Harbor last weekend.

And yes, weather.com lies and lies.

The wife has one of those Shick Intuition razors, and she says it's so fast and easy to shave she actually doesn't mind doing it.

Anything to keep her from borrowing my razor!

weather.com might smarten up if they had to put pics or icons of trousers/sweaters/jackets/tights or tank tops/minis/shorts + brollies/hats/gloves or mitts next to their cute little pics of clouds/suns/droplets/snowplets.

I never liked Ben & Jerry. Dreyer's is much better.

I'm wearing a thin sweater today and loving it! Though, I did wear a t-shirt underneath for when it warms up this afternoon.
