I won't be telling you not to do a damn thing. I was *theese* close to wearing a big, pink prom dress until I reminded that I should save it for the movie.

(PLEASE let them make a movie.)

Er...I think it would be kinda cute.

Scary-crazy would be if you painted your face green.

Nope, I'm afraid I think that's still way on this side of whimsical and that you should do it.

Someone tell me that I should NOT make a mini witch's hat to wear when we go see Wicked.

I love this idea--as long as you test it first to make sure any short people sitting behind you can see the stage.

Oooh! You could make a little witchy chapeau!

We almost stayed there. It was one of our options but it was too far for Joe to travel every day. We are doing okay. Ellie had a nice birthday yesterday - swim in the ocean and a nice dinner out. Still, entertaining a toddler (boy, she sounds so old!) in a hotel and eating so many meals out gets tiring. Swimming really wears her out, though, and that helps.

It is a gorgeous place but pretty remote--and EXPENSIVE. Anything you buy on site is outrageously marked up and even the cheapest restaurant on site was pretty damned spendy. You're probably better off where you are. But I hope you guys have a fridge or something. I can't imagine trying eat out every meal with a toddler. When Owen was that age, we went through a phase where we had a 45 minute window for restaurant eating. That included ordering, eating, paying the check and getting out the door. Needless to say, we didn't eat out very often until he learned to entertain himself with crayons, etc.

Jilli, that sounds GREAT! Yay on the Wicked tickets.

Nicole, I'm glad you got saw the doc and got some scripts. I hope it gets better quickly. TAKE THE WHOLE COURSE OF AB's. That always bears repeating.

Thanks to the inspiration of Hec and Megan--I am leaning strongly toward this haircut: [link] Any thoughts from Les Biches?

Jilli, I'm so conventional it hurts. I drive a freaking mini-van. To soccer games. I go to a Protestant church. I am a s-a-h-m. Right now I am wearing jeans and a T-shirt. My only piercings are one hole in each ear--that my grandmother took me to get.

Even I think the hat would fall well within the bounds of whimsy.

Oooh, Robin, I love that!

Yay for Jilli's good day and Wicked tickets!

So glad Nicole went to the doctor. As Cash said, take ALL of the antibiotics. And keep your thermometer handy!

Someone tell me that I should NOT make a mini witch's hat to wear when we go see Wicked. That doing that crosses that thin line between whimiscal and scary-crazy.

Hmm. I'm actually in two minds about this, inasmuchas it blurs the line between Jilliwear and Specific Fancy Dress Costume. Hmm. I'm not worried about scary-crazy, mind you, and I don't think that there's any reason one shouldn't go in costume to see Wicked. And I'm sure it would look charming.

...I'd be rooting for ruby slippers as an accesory, though. It seems only fitting.

Er. In short, then - I feel confident that the sartorial choice you make will be the right one, even if I'm not sure what the right one should be.

And I am ALL about the Wicked envy. Yes.
