There’s a new secret society in town…
Anorexia Bracelets Reveal Secret Society
I just heard about this at work today. There are special bracelets you can wear to let other anorexic people know who you are. I mean wouldn’t people know by looking that you’re anorexic? I mean skinny is one thing, but starvation is quite another. Upon searching deeper, there is a whole pro-anorexia internet society out there. They don’t feel that they have a mental issue that needs treatment, and are quite happy the way they are. After reading site after site, I just felt sad for them.
I would like to have more control over my life. Right now I feel so completely overwhelmed with baby, summer reading, baby and my completely unorganized house. I deal with this by making lists. Hundreds and hundreds of lists. Unfortunately it doesn’t work at all. Fortunately there are others like me (including one lady st work).
On a slightly different note… watch out for the sex bracelets! Different colors mean different sexual favors. Yippie!
In conclusion, Jack has been sucking on my hand this whole time and its completely numb and soggy.
Thank you.

I would think that someone churning out bracelets at that rate could get a better cost on materials.
As far as I can tell from the pics and description, $20 for a bracelet like that assumes top of the line retail cost to the maker (since she also indicates they are made at cost).

This is disturbing.
Actually, I can tell I’m getting old b/c I have no desire to go out and get a plastic bracelet of any type. Precious metals and beads seem like a much better idea in wristwear, IMHO.
Speaking of clothing items, you will appreciate the fact that I went out and bought *two* purses the other day. 🙂

Yeah! I went to Little Falls NY (out near Albany) and at a little store we stopped at, there were felted purses! I have found my new passion. I will now start making fun and funky felted purses.
