You know, I just realized that I never got my bras from A.W. Kaufman that I ordered by phone NEARLY ONE YEAR AGO. Well, I didn’t “just” realize this. I have thought about this intermittently since I ordered them but as more and more time passed, it seemed kind of weird to call back and ask what happened. Miriam did tell me it could take “a while,” because she wasn’t sure when she was going to get the next shipment in, but, it’s been a bit more than “a while” although I guess it’s possible another order never arrived. Or something. I don’t really know how their ordering system works.
Anyway, I decided ten minutes ago that I couldn’t wait any longer because in the 18 months since I bought the bra, I am starting to feel some sag*, so I ordered two Conturelle Provence bras from a store called Bits of Lace. No A.W. Kaufman discount, but free shipping and no tax. Not too bad.
We’ll see how long it takes.

* I know that I could just get the bra altered by taking in the straps. Someone at a lingerie store once suggested this to me. But, my bra feels too personal to take to a tailor, although writing about my bra and what goes inside them on the internet feels just fine for some reason.
