yep, Nilly. Thanks for asking. 3 days. It's the paper anniversary.
Natter 32 Flavors and Then Some
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.
Oooh, pretty, amych. (Not JZ, I peeked anyway, b/c pretty!)
All the linked dresses are pretty.
I need to get my dress cleaned and stored so it stays pretty.
Sound of Busic?
The bills are live...
No. The movie S.O.B. - in which a 40+ Julie goes topless. And she's...amazing.
The movie "SOB," in which Ms. Andrews bares her breasts in a rather obvious attempt to change her oh-so-pure image, both for her character and for her personally. A Blake Edwards movie, but one that was far exceeded in quality by "Victor/Victoria," one of my all-time faves.
My mom had one of those writeups when she married dad.
I spent about four years writing those write-ups. I was a lifestyle editor. I had no particular interest in things social or bridal, but after about a year, I could look at a picture and type "overlaid with medallions of alencon lace." Much of that knowledge has now left my brain.
My favorite write-up from a bride: "The groom's cake was in the shape of a truck, the symbol of the groom's profession." A fellow lifestyle editor once had a bride write that the gown was "ebony white."
amych, that's absolutely fabulous.
I still don't have my wedding dress. I've been postponing the shopping for body-demon issues, though I can't screw around for much longer. It's less than 8 months away now.
And I want sleeves to cover my flabby arms, but if I can't find a dress I like, I will have a bolero jacket made to cover the flaws.
Oh yes! But when you're eight, somehow the brideyness overshadows the groom.
I dunno, not for me. Of course I wanted a tackling dummy for Christmas right around then (when I was around 8, not when my parents got married).
A Blake Edwards movie, but one that was far exceeded in quality by "Victor/Victoria," one of my all-time faves.
Bullshit! S.O.B. has a truly genius performance by Richard Mulligan. Dark and funny. Late William Holden. I can see a preference for V/V, but "far exceeds"? NFW.
Oh, amych, that dress is utterly GORGEOUS.
BevDog! did you get your book?
