Stayed home from work with a sore throat. Breakfast: oatmeal with organic diced apple, 1 gram of Natrol Easy-C, 12 ounces of V8. Drank hot water throughout the day. Recently finished reading A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin which I borrowed a long time ago from sneeper. Left this feedback for levis.com today: "I want to be able to enter current sizes for everyone in my family then be able to visit the site or receive html email to see which items (a) fit members of my family and (b) are on sale, showing the % of savings. No one does this now, but with as many resources as Levi's has, why can't you be the first? The 'larger' images aren't large enough, and I can only seem to zoom in on the first, default image—why? I can't see all styles that are low-rise, I can't figure out what the difference between '18XR' and '18WXR' is, I can't filter to see all in a certain waist size regardless of length (because I can do hems on my sewing machine myself). I'd prefer to see actual measurements in addition to the standard sizes. This is more helpful to me than peer reviews that say "yes this fits" (since my body type is different than others') like other clothing websites have recently introduced." Chatted briefly with Tina on the phone while making dinner at home by myself: Russ Parsons' southern comfort soup from his book How to Pick a Peach: olive oil, garlic, Joe Heger Farms organic lacinato kale, organic spinach, organic rainbow chard, medium-grain rice, mushroom broth, freshly grated pepper. I used a blender instead of a food processor, and that worked better than I think the food processor would have worked.
