Actually, I'm planning on going to Dickens Fair this year (yea!) so I can find one that fits there. Whee! (but tricornes were grossly out of fashion by Dickens' time.)
Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Jilli, that hat, the whole ensemble actually, is a thing of beauty.
JZ, love, would you mind popping me an email at my profile addy? I"m getting ready to start sending out theatrical resumes, and I need a bit of lowdown on who and where. If you don't mind, of course.
Put the islets of Langerhans on alert: I'm sending down some pink iced animal crackers. Desperate times call for desperate measures.
On a lighter note:

From the article:
Colin was Action Figure Darcy. He fences! He swims! He bathes! Naked! He gives and fixes and scowls and rides his horse and just in general Firths all over the place, and we are much the better for it.
BWAHAHAH! Beautiful. I loves me some Firth.
Jessica, that is quite possibly the shittiest office faux pas I've ever seen. Your co-workers suck.
So how do I tell him no? I tried the cost thing, and he's countering that it's about the same price as train+taxi, which is true.
Raq, I'd definitely pull the "travelling with an infant is a LOT more difficult. I'd hate to inconvenience you and your girlfriend. Let's each rent a car and we can schedule when to meet up and where." You get lots of leeway with a baby. Your friend will thank you in the end.
I hate being this dependent on drugs, but I am. No more futzing around. Take the prescription and be glad it works.
{{{Betsy}}} gah. Sometimes, you just got to stick with the drugs, which can suck.
Jilli, that hat & dress ensemble is fucking gorgeous.
Kitty and Puppy have a pro-active approach to things, don't they.
I was worried about the old lady with the handsaw.
juliana, good for you on the ready for resume sending.
Jilli, all the best for the surgery. May you have the speediest recovery in recorded history.
Jessica, that sucks about your co-workers and your birthday. They have a calendar and they missed it? Oy. Apologies are in order. Presents, too.
Betsy, I'm sorry you feel distress about being dependent on the drugs. I'm glad, tho', that they do good things for you.
The library has emptied out in the past half hour or so. I'm guess there must be free food somewhere in the building.
juliana, insent.
I love the verbifying of Firth more than I can say.
