So, I adore the Nike online summer clearance. Because I like Nike clothing, especially their workout gear and goggles (Remoras FTW), but I just don't have the kind of disposable income to sling around to buy their stuff full price.
For a number of reasons (several relating to the abusive tendencies of a now-deceased individual) I always think of myself as being really heavy/large. Yes, I have friends who are larger than I am, but it doesn't impact my self-perception at all - it's one of the few areas in which I'm horrible at perspective. Today, my shipment of Nike goodness arrived, and I was shocked to be reminded that I am apparently actually a Large (as opposed to an XL) in a bunch of their stuff. I knew I had an L Nike T-Shirt that I wear frequently, but I hadn't put together that it meant that the L stuff (which I ordered b/c they didn't have XL in the clearance section and I'm planning to go back into training for a triathlon so will drop 30 pounds in the next few months, meaning roughly a dress size for me due to muscle mass increases) would fit now.
Color me pleasantly surprised.
Also, my WtWM universe is currently at 16,700 words and exploding rapidly. WTF, brain?
