Shopping for work pants

There is one chore in all my world that ranks right up there with going to the laundromat as "things I hate to do the most" and that would be shopping.  I admit, I'm a girl and I don't like to shop.  Unless it's rummaging, which doesn't qualify as shopping in my view.  Every so often, though, I have to work up the will to go to actual stores and hunt around for a pair of pants to wear at work.  Dockers, a brand introduced by Levi Strauss & Co., has been providing classy jeans and work pants since 1986. With fits ranging from Classic to Slim, there is a pair for everyone. Check some different styles out here!  I'm just not a fan of going from store to store, trying on pants.

Every time I do this, I end up feeling crappy about my figure.  I don't have a butt, my legs are too skinny and my waist is far too wide for the rest of my little self.  Therefore, as one might imagine, shopping for pants is not a happy time for me.  Shirts aren't so bad.  If I'm having a 'feeling fat' day, then nothing makes me feel smaller than a giant tee shirt.  If I'm having a 'lookin' good' kind of day, then a slim fit tee shirt fits the bill.  Everyone seems to have a particular style that they adhere to.  Except me of course.  I don't try to be difficult about it, but it always seems like I have a different clothing style for every mood I have.  Mostly, I wear black.  It's easy to match, suits my dark personality and sense of humor.  On the other hand though, I might see someone wearing a flowered skirt that I think is cute.  The woes of being a girl who hates to shop!

Photobucket Sucks

This is going to be a 'Douche of the Day' award post that I usually do on my Wordpress blog . I was a happy Photobucket user for 11 years.  That's a long time to stick with a service so they were obviously a good one.  I was completely happy with the services provided on my free account and a couple of times, I made use of the print store in order to make custom gifts for loved ones for various occasions. Then all of a sudden, in 2017, they start sending me nagware. For those unfamiliar, nagware consists of popups/emails/messages etc that 'nag' you to buy their product. It's irritating, true, but not a deal breaker since I had a free account.  I just unsubscribed to the nagmails and just put up with it on the site. Then, however, Photobucket decided to do something I consider to be truly despicable. They made it to where you CANNOT download your photo albums (for backup or for account changes).  They actually REMOVED the download album links.  Why is that p...

Favorite File Manager for Windows 7

Most people that use Windows tend to just use Windows Explorer as their file manager. A vast number of people likely don't even realize that there are other options.  Windows Explorer is painfully limited in features, especially lacking the tabs that 95% of file managers utilize.  In my line of work, I have to compare, browse, edit, move, delete and rename vast numbers of files.  Windows Explorer just can't handle the task. I ended up using FreeCommander file manager, which had all the features I was looking for with extensive customization options for the user interface and a built in viewer that could be used inside the window I was working on.  That was actually the most difficult feature to find as I discovered later. After a while though, I became very frustrated with FreeCommander's 32 bit free version.  It became slow and often froze.  So I decided to comparison shop, so to speak.  My requirements were few but necessary: I had to be able to c...
