I thought that the white symbolized "debt free"
Whose debt to whom?
I'm confused as to why wedding dresses are being discussed in the past tense.
It's the history of wedding dresses, I'm discussing, not so much their current usage/symbology.
you could afford to have a white dress that you woudn't get much subsequent use out of
Was white not a worn colour, before it became traditional wedding wear? I mean, why not a yellow dress you wouldn't get much use out of? I thought that white formal these days was
too
tied to the wedding tradition -- but before it, what was the drawback?
My mother had her wedding dress made into a ball gown (not high society, but from an era where women of, uh, regular society wore long dresses much more often thant they seem to these days). And then, apparently, she disposed of it. Such sentiment. Well, her sentiment was all tied up with her husband and not the dress, I suppose. Which is nice and all, but I like the look of the dress from the pictures, and it'd be nice to have it.
There was a point somewhere in there. Maybe.
Love the dress in that link.

We're talking about the history of white dresses, hence the past tense.
we found benches at cost plus for you that would work perfectly with your table
Benches, or stools? My local one doesn't have those, but I was gonna look around.
I no longer need cocoa! Lee warmed my house with a couple boxes.
ita, I have seen those at the Cost plus at the farmer's market.
Heh, Sail, I hadn't actually gotten to that part yet. But now it's all good. That was
The Slasher or whatever, the serial rapist. He'd already gotten Sean, for "correcting his work" and I figure that everyone knows they're partners, and he's done Sean already, so why would he go back?
HA! Stools! I took pictures and sent them to you before I saw your link. There's even one of lori on it for scale.
I love the "with lori for scale." They look better in your picture than on the website -- you can see more grain. I'll ask my place if they'll get them in.
Then, once I've resolved the patio table issue, the metal chairs can go outside.
I guess I was confused as to why the conversation turned suddenly to the history of wedding dresses, especially since it seemed to begin with a discussion of how much fun they are to shop for.
Oh, and on to another topic entirely: so my family came by this weekend and finally started helping with the clean up of the house. They cleaned all the junk out of the garage. I am exhausted, but it was so damn worth it.
