I love Dolman sleeves, especially in sweaters. I also like cowl necks. The perfect sweater would be a black or dark green cashmere with those sleeves and neck. Mmmm!

MOM, I'm about over that cold, but pardon me if I run to the loo every so often. It's that old stupid juxtaposition of having had a couple of babies and then getting over a cold that brings on really hard sneezes. Gotta keep the bladder on the empty side (even though this would never ordinarily even be a day-to-day consideration, we must make the occasional exception.) Bummer.

Should anyone else here decide to try the "blotto" therapy, don't let MOM see you in your cups. She makes really awful coffee, I've heard tell, and she's liable to fill you up with it (she doesn't realize you don't sober people that way, you just have an awake drunk.)
