Is thisa the one JZ was wearing Saturday? because it was a great dress.

That's it.

More good news! JZ did some scans for me that I've been wanting for a while.

Jilli, you'll like this one. My favorite Premiere Magazine cover

Also my favorite Archies comic book cover. Betty and Veronica go punk!

I will be getting some vintage bakeware (and a teapot) in the mail soon (all pink with black lids!)

Oooh, Jilli! Pictures, when you get them? Please?

Before I forget again, exam ~ma to you, sj!!

Things are great with Fella.

Lovely to read, Beej!! Yay for you and Fella!

Ok, had to edit my post. Amazing what it reads when you leave off the contraction.

ION, I want that haircut that Winona has in the picture.

I remember positively swooning over that Premiere cover. Gary...come look at me that way.

And thanks Nicole. We're really happy!

Planning is in full swing for the All-Fella-All-The-Time birthday weekend coming up:

• Friday night St. Pat's party with friends
• Saturday morning, breakfast in bed
• full body massage
a burlesque I've written especially for him
• trip to a museum to see some art he likes
• dinner with friends, featuring a table reading of the Serenity sock puppet theatre, complete with sock puppets and character bios...plus writing Fella's rpg character into the script
• darts/pool/margaritas
• dessert at my house (my 70% chocolate cake with a fresh peanut butter frosting
• Sunday morning brunch with friends featuring a trip to the fish monger
• Firefly RPG at my house
• Sushi making at the above mentioned friend's house

Did I forget anything? Yes! Prezzies...including a hand embroidered dice bag, toys and an appointment with my acupuncturist to jumpstart his health.

Phew! Ima need to rest all next week.

Thank you. Both the casserole dish and the teapot are absotively beautiful! I think I may need to haunt ebay for a bit tonight. I don't know why I always thought practical items had to look practical. Stupid of me, really.

Hivemind check! Do I want this dress? [link]

I've been looking for that style for a while now (and the Stop Staring site doesn't have it in stock, drat them.)

Yes, you do and so do I.

Aimée, Winona's actually wearing a wig, so you could go out and get that haircut in the picture literally right this minute (assuming there's a wig shop in your building).

Is this the one JZ was wearing Saturday? because it was a great dress.

That's it.

Nuh-uh! The Saturday dress is a swirly but slender black crepe dress with brocade collar from the 30's. The new vintage dress is completely different, and I didn't wear it on Saturday because it's a wee bit showy and costumey and I didn't feel right about it, because Saturday was supposed to be all about juliana and her mom.

Dress porn ahoy:

The new dress is a bright, deep blue with beige and black stripes (the pattern is sort of like a horizontal-only plaid). It has a deep front-and-back scoopneck with an extremely large collar (so big it almost covers the t-shirt length sleeves) with black velvet ribbon trim. The waist is just a teeny bit dropped. There's a vertical stripe of the dress material running down the front of the dress. The overall effect is vaguely nautical. Hopefully pictures will be forthcoming.
