Natter 36: But We Digress...  

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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Yeah, yeah, I know it's not like Santorum actually cares about facts, nor is there a single journalist out there who will point this out when recounting what he said. Feh.

Oh course. There's nothing "fair and balanced" about the facts if they make the neo-cons look bad.

Sewing your own skirts? With no pattern? A wine tour? Three showers? Bridezilla City. Too craxy for words.

Do people normally only have one shower? It seems to me like I've known people who had several. But other than needing the MOH or at least one bridesmaid at each, they weren't mostly the same people, and it wasnt' the same people hosting them.

That girl, however, is craxy. Also, no offense, but it'll be interesting to see what the bridesmaids end up looking like. I sure wouldn't want to wear a formal outfit that I had any hand in the making of.

Thanks guys, I had to write another check for my place, and discovered that I didnt have a significant amount of money that I was counting on (cause I'm an idiot). I was able to cover it, but money will be tight for a bit, so I didn't know if it was just me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do think if one of the showers has every female wedding invitee, that would pretty much be enough, wouldn't it? I know people who have had different showers for different groups/in different places, and still never invited every woman invited to the wedding.

exactly! I mean, she's a costumer, so she's great with a sewing machine. And I don't have any problem with the making vs. the buying of skirts. But, a pattern is kind of important!

yeah. One shower is thrown by the MIL, one by "us", one by another friend of hers, who will probably be inviting people who are not invited to the wedding, which, in my book, is a no no.

Vortex, sounds like a fruitloop. I honestly would start saying "Sorry, that won't work for me/I cannot attend."

I don't get people.

Which reminds me, I need to see if my cousin is registered anywhere and get something shipped out there. Cause I am not carting something with me on the plane.

Of course, this presupposes I actually get there. For her sister's wedding in the same geographic area, around the same time....I never managed to get on a plane. Spent 5 hours in an airport, though.

Yeah, I've never heard of that, unless if it were a tiny wedding I guess.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I didn't even get one shower. Now I feel cheated.

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

If we make you a wedding dress out of toilet paper will you feel better?
