Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

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.

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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

White wedding dress thingy: [link]

We're talking about the history of white dresses, hence the past tense.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm going to kill Teppy for the trolls.

This one: [link] is the scariest thing I've seen in ages.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

ita, I have seen those at the Cost plus at the farmer's market.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

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.

They aren't especially smooth shiny, but they're pretty nice. They look like the right height.

It was a fun Cost Plus run.

Wait, have you been trolling the Cost Plus website?
