now you people have me looking at pics of wedding dresses - BAD.
fun lovely I love tulle so much
'Out Of Gas'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I found a new breakfast place. As usual, breakfast is STILL my favorite out to eat meal.
Ooh, where? Me too, even though it doesn't work for my favorite type of food.
My friend Cara's dress was similar to your first one, msbelle, except the skirt was all feathers instead of tulle.
Sleeves are nice. Not universally necessary, but I tend to go with them, or at least with straps. My boobular containment facility demands the extra fabric.
what do people mean when they say "modern"?
Usually, I mean "these days", or "recently" (for incredibly wide variation of either term). I've never meant earlier than 1900, but I usually mean since about 1950. In a formal literary context, I mean about 1920-1950, in contrast to post-modern art.
Not surprised about the NHL. Eric Wilbur (NESN Sports Blog) had a whole plan for how he would contract the NHL to 20 teams and restructure the whole shebang. Also, he suggested that the Garden aka FleetCenter may in the future be called GoldenPalace.com Center, if eBay is to be believed. This would be why I persist in calling in the Garden.
My mom had one of those writeups when she married dad. Of course, it being the south alongside descriptions of the swiss-dotted bridesmaids dresses and mom's mantillia, there was the recounting of Dad's football exploits.
you hid it in a *sports* post!
What you are witnessing is my freaky ambivalence. Yay! Pretties! Yikes! Don'twannagush! Yay! Sports! Eep!
Once again, I'm not so sure I'm an actual girl.
Hungry. Need caffeine and new job. Also need to return 8 bazillion phone calls. Blargh.
Beverly is me.
"Venise lace" used to drive me up the wall, though. If a dress didn't have "Valenciennes lace", it had "Venise lace". The bride chose a fingertip-length illusion veil and was given in marriage by her father.
Julie Andrews' in Sound of Music.
Mmmm, Julie had a hot bod.

illusion veil Don't they all? (/bullshit phony cynicism)
