Married in pearl, you'll live in a whirl;
Does ivory = pearl?
I don't know,I would think yes. And what does it mean to live in a whirl?
You're like my fairy godmother, and Santa Claus, and Q all wrapped up into one! Q from Bond, not Star Trek.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It sounds horrid and selfish and awful
How? I think you should have all those things.
Me, I can have no more dresses, until I've worn the ones I've got. Between hand-me-downs, and this one shop in MI (it's like she shopped for me -- I could go in any time I was in the neighbourhood and pick up something that looked good and fit right with a minimum of actual effort. And she knew just what to bring to the dressing room), I have too many still.
I've slightly dented the list since moving to LA, but it's a long road ahead of me, with no actual dates and stuff.
Lee, I'm right. Ignore Kat.
Burrell -- weird -- it seems like you and the DH have been married for the longest time (in a good way, natch). How long did you date beforehand?

Let's just assume a tornado of happiness.
If you judge by the state of my house, the tornado part appears to be correct...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gah. I am in Houston. Tired as fuck. But too wired to sleep.
Flight was the smoothest I've ever had. Plus pretty Chicago at night.

Ok, ita is right. I do deserve them. I'm just awful with money, and I've been so trying to be fiscally responsible that I've gotten into the "spending = BAD" mindset.
And I need to fucking lighten up.
I'm going to save some money from each check till the end of April and buy something pretty for L's wedding.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Lee, I'm right. Ignore Kat.
I am already getting rid of my tape player, and I don't want to go too crazy, do I?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Went shopping to get a much needed bra and pants. Victoria's Secret no longer carries my size, but I can get it online, says them. I said fuck that and got myself a Bali. In pink.
Also got some lovely new trousers for work, and some new jeans that I think make my ass look reasonably unhuge. Oddly, they're cropped low-rise, which means they fit just right for my short waisted, stubby legged bod.
And some new pretty flip flops with sparkly charms on them.
I had no money for this, and will be living on ramen noodles for a month, but damnit, i needed clothes.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Whoa. I've been married longer than you. That seems wrong somehow.
See what I mean? Many people have been married longer than I have.

Um, let's see... we've been together 9 years, all told. I remember he once told me pretty early on--I think we'd been seeing each other for about 3 months--that, one way or another, I was going to be a part of his life for the rest of his life.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Hec and I are home, and he's curled up on the couch picking through the Tivo's recent acquisitions. He's all achy from heaving so vigorously and frequently. Lee was the kindest host ever, and we both owe her approximately 50 umptillion hours of moving-in-and-unpacking assistance.
