I could do some sort of fifties thing with jeans and a white t-shirt, but that's kind of boring. Any suggestions?
A side ponytail, some serious blush and eye shadow and you can look eighties no matter what else you wear.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

NO! No I did not!
Aha! Well, neither did I until last night. Le Bloke picked up at a flyer at a comic book shop. I'm not sure on the details, but yeah, comic book and SF thingy.
Ooh, wait, he just came on msn. I shall garner details.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Good idea, but I don't have any makeup here.
Rolling up the cuffs of my jeans to make them into pedal-pushers, plus white t-shirt and high ponytail, with Converse, seems to work for impromptu fifties, I think. (Why did I forget to bring a tie-dye shirt? They have theme days every year, and a tie-dye shirt is always useful for at least one of those.)

Yes, yes it is. Fancy it?

Oooh! I could definitely be tempted. Although I rather fear the money haemmoraging thing, but, but...and it looks like it's close to the train station and everything!

Cash, JZ, and flea - thanks for the maternity-wear advice and links. I've forwarded it all. Up to and including the surry/Suri discussion.
I'm glad your DH is home and doing well, connie. May the treatment do its job well.
Cash, so sorry the shot has lost effectiveness; I'm sending along all good thoughts and -ma for you.
R's boss is an asshead.
Agreed.
Serious health-ma to your grandpa, Steph.
Dental health-ma to Robin. Minimal pain, too.
Yay, Jen! Congratulations!
I will be Pirating at the movies on Saturday with my niece, assuming there are tickets to be had. And I will look appropriately piratey, too, including my skull and crossbone earring in the second hole of the two-hole ear and my requisite scarf, of course.
ETA: And, sj, energy-ma to you.

The status is NOT quo.
Fay, I completely understand the home but not at home thing. I felt it (to a minor degree) when I was back east earlier in the summer. Very disconcerting.
ION, yay Nurse Jen!!

Coffee (what? it's breakfast to me):
So much ~ma to Bitches who need it: ((((Cash, Connie and DH, Robin, sj, Teppy and grandpa)))) and anyone else I missed.
I am in CarMax getting my Forester appraised. Hopefully they'll offer me enough money to mean I don't have to sell it myself. I really hate having to deal with car selling to private parties.
