I just want a dress. One cute dress. Something I can wear to a wedding without embarssing myself. Eddie Bauer and J.Crew are only selling sleeveless spaghetti strap things. Not going to work. April Cornell looks like it's made for middle aged librarians with an allergic reaction to non-natural products (no offense meant to any middle aged librarians out there, but it's just not a look for me.) Laura Ashley has one very cute dress, even a nice color for me, but of course, it's clearance and out of stock. Grrr. J. Jill--what is this damn obsession with sleeveless?

Okay, I had another one of those damn audiotory hallucinations last night--drifting off to sleep, and then suddenly a noise like someone had dropped an armload of 2-x-4s onto concrete just by my bad ear. They terrify me, and I have no idea what causes them--is this a bad sign of something, or is it just my brain being weird because of my hearing loss? I'm starting to think that perhaps it's just an ear thing--I seem to get it when I try to fall asleep on my good ear, so it may be something funky with, I don't know, air pressure and my bad ear. I'll have to pay attention the next time it happens. Of course when it actually happens, I'm too busy getting my heart to stop racing to analyze it...
