Ewww, no dislocated body parts. Maybe my soul or heart a time or two, but nothin' with bones. Ewww.
When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Even if the bottom is lace, it could be removed, the slip shortened and the lace put back on.
At which point I'll have to go to a seamstress, so I'm thinking I'll just go to a seamstress and ask her where one buys slips. I mean, she should know, right?

ita, how about something like this? [link]
or this-- [link]
There are a bunch at Nordstrom, look for "chemise". Also, look in more old school stores, like saks or Lord and Taylor.

Chemises are too short. I'm looking for a straight up old school full slip. I asked at Nordies, and they told me they didn't carry them.

Give or take a few inches, yeah.
I'm just terribly anal. I want that thing like my mother used to wear when I was little. I figure the seamstress that I'm seeking out (hopefully I'll have the time next weekend) will be able to help me. I had no idea they'd disappeared off the map so cleanly. But the old ladies shop somewhere (that's not Nordstrom or Sears or Ross or Marshall) and I will find them.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

That's crazy! Have you tried Victoria's Secret: [link]

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
ita, looks like the old ladies may shop at JC Penney: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The Victoria's Secret ones are all short.

And ChiKat has the inside track on the aged woman! Looks like there's a JC Penney not too far from me. I'll try that on the weekend. Thanks.
Man, I hope I'm not allergic to this mistake lipstick. I can already tell the scent will be a problem when I'm having a migraine, but hopefully it won't be a trigger in and of itself. It's a weird rust colour that is making my lips look more like the colour they normally are, plus shine.
Of course, now I remember I have to sniff lipstick before buying them too. I've been lucky--it's at least two years since the mint-Aveda-lipgloss fiasco.
And now, with fashion disasters in hand, I off to work.
