But Meschantes recommends ordering a size 4-6 inches smaller than your natural waistline, because their corsets can -- with proper training -- reduce your waist by that much.
Sadly, these days I can lace my meschantes corset shut, and it's not THAT tight, when I do.
Of course, I ordered a new corset (from Timeless Treasures--$99 for an underbust corset, though not custom), and went by their guidelines, and apparently should've ordered a smaller size--when I tried my friend's on by myself, I thought it'd be perfect, but having her lace me into it Saturday night, it was basically laced shut. I think it's because my middle is all smushy.
(Edit: That said, I LOOOOOOOVE my new corset, which is black with white pinstripes, and fits great, and looks super super hot, and I can't wait until I can put up pictures!)

I think I speak for all of us when I say: Bring it to San Francisco. We'll take pictures.
I can't wait until I can put up pictures!
I'm sure you're not the only one.
When I reach my WW goal, I am absolutely buying a corset.
Heh. Well, I'm hoping to download the pictures off my camera when I get a new computer. Which I'm hopoing to do in the next week or two. But I'll also bring it to SF if Juliana promises me somewhere to wear it to....
Also, Dita Von Teese was on America's Next Top Model tonight!!
there are no brownies or cookies in my house.
I am vaguely itchy
glad I am that I told matt to head to a concert without me. However, If I had gone, I might have found a brownie.
Conference is over. It was fantabulous, except teeny, tiny parts which we won't mention. However, I have a headache, a crick in my neck, a start of a blister on my toe, and I'm so tired I could spit, although I don't really know what spitting has to do with anything.
I'm also soooooo very inspired and can't wait to get back to work to hopefully implement at least some of the ideas I've gotten. This inspiration is continuing through the exhaustion, which is kind of amazing to me.
By the way, the tiredness is not that the conference is so tiring, just that I haven't really slept for over a week now. Blerg.
New Baby Fun
JZ: I think she flurmed. I'll go change her.
[overheard from down the hall]
How can you be so cute? Let's just get you cleaned up. Hey! Don't do that! Why would you do a thing like that?! No! Bad baby!
Me: What happened.
JZ: She kicked her foot in the poop. Then she peed on my hand!
::ten minutes later::
Matilda:
{FLURRRM}
JZ: You can change her this time.
Me: This is an opportunity for you to show...
JZ: I did fifteen freakin' diapers today, okay?
Me: I got her.
[takes baby to changing table]
Alright. Mommy doesn't know how to handle you. What we need here is a speed change. Ya gotta prep before hand, then ninja speed changing powers! I'll just unzip you....look at that. You did indeed flurm. Hey! Don't...Dammit.
JZ: What happened?
Me: She peed on my hand.
Heeeeeee! Go Team Matilda! Mark your humans.
Me: She peed on my hand.
It's the old bait 'n' switch! They come for the flurm, but stay for the pee!
Fear the combo flurm/pee! (We shall call it FLEE!!)
