My sister's getting married a bit later in the evening on a Friday night in October, but the wedding party is all in black, and it just so happens that my stepmom is also wearing black (she had bought a nice dress for another event and wanted to wear it at another occasion). Probably a good idea to double-check with the bride, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just went and told her not to feel shy about stopping by, even for a little. A visit would be nice.
I really really want to wear that dress Kat loaned me to the wedding, and based on what I know of the bride, she's not old school traditional or anything. But I know how much of these things have to do with family, so I'm not going to try extrapolating.
I do have a gold dress in my closet that's never been worn, as well as two ballgown skirts, similarly unworn. Sheeit. You know, I should wear one of those skirts. Dammit, I will. The question is "Pink or pewter?" And then I can wonder about blouses. If I had the one true white shirt I could be all Sharon Stone and do that. Hell, if I had a decent cashmere sweater and lived in another state I'd also be set.

Pewter!
Also, I meant to say this earlier, but rock it, paperdol! You going to spill what the pitch was for? Is this the coworker one?

The pink (it's perfect princess pink) has the advantage of everyone assuming I don't wear it--but I do, and they've all seen me do it, but it never seems to stick until the one time it goes off like an explosion of cotton candy in their brain.
Took my last Percocet. Am not happy. Can't sleep, can't think clearly, and am praying that this run of migraines is menstrually-related, because at least it'll ease up in some finite and relatively predictable time. If not...I don't know. I can't do the ER again. Acupuncture better come through either way.

Robin, does Alibelle still work with you?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I know, about the pink. I just like pewter.
Did you find your steroids earlier?

Yes she does!
Sorry--just spoke to her this past weekend, and I also can't think of that skirt without thinking of her. It even has a splash of crystals on the waistband.
Now I need to go Bluefly and find the right top.
I do love Bluefly.

Yes, I did. More I'm home, the messier it is, and the harder it is to find stuff. Need to leave.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
ita is correct. I get to see her every day! You want I should give her a message?
