So, um, does anyone have any ballpark estimations of how much lobbyists cost? Or graphic designers? No reason.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Wal-Mart had em on Black Friday for, I think $6.
No idea.

Weekend plans (all contingent on storm and related disruptions): tonight: my friend's are coming in from Lunenburg and we are going to see Claire's Hat, an unreleased documentary by Bruce MacDonald. (Of Hard Core Logo fame.) Then possibly out for drinks.
Tomorrow: Farmer's Market, brunch with my friends and my friend's parents, shopping, and in the evening a cocktail party at my boss' that I couldn't figure an excuse to get out of this year. (Soemwhere megan is saying "AH-ha.")
Are my guests staying another night? I don't know. Maybe more drinks with them if they are still around.
Somewhere in here I have to squeeze in watching the last ep of Season 1 veronica Mars and then return the DVD to the Video Store.
Sunday: My Co-op's AGM and potluck in the evening, so I'll likely be cooking this afternoon. Maybe entertaining guests if they are still here. I hope to be home ot collapse and watch GA.

I once became what I briefly thought was hopelessly trapped in a sweaty sports bra in a locker room. That was when I switched to the sort of sports bra that has hooks-and-eyes.
Aimee, you are not fat and stupid. The fatness is in your head and the stupidness is unpossible. You're attractive and funny; you have a great husband; and you have one of the cuter children in the world.

Thanks for the hairpats, everyone.
I've not met any of MM's co-worker's, so I'm kinda nervous.

Years and years ago on tabletalk, there was a horrifically funny recounting of a tragic encounter with one of those slimming garments. I suspect it is a far too common phenomenon.

Aimee, I think shopping for those things requires including close friends to help. They are truly evil.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Lobbyists cost a lot more than $6, but I don't know how much. Probably in the hundreds of thousands for a 3- or 6-month campaign.
I got stuck in it. I couldn't get out of it.
I find those things frightening, almost as frightening as strapless bras. Same rubbery-sticky stuff; same "okay, wait, if I can't reach the clasp, there is no way at all for me to get this thing off myself??"
