These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

No, that's not it. It's driving me nuts trying to think of it. It's on the tip of my tongue. They have stuff like baroque looking wallpaper and ornate bedframes and stuff.

Thrive to spite them

Sean I'd contact TSA and the airline about the missing things. This time of year it might not be TSA taking something because of security reasons but outright theft.

The big thing about carry ons and liquids is that you can only have 3 oz containers in a 1 gallon ziploc bag. There's no limit to the containers in the bag but you can't have approximately 3 ozs in a 5 oz container the actual container has to be 3 oz.

As far as I know this includes all kinds of make up, lipsticks, and any kind of liquid food products -- including jams and jellies. Solid stuff is fine -- crackers, sandwiches, etc. I've seen someone have to dump out a bunch of homemade jams because they tried to carry them on.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

When I was in my band, my fave "look" was miniskirts and knee socks with chunky loafers.

Hell, I still wear a variation on that theme (short skirts, knee socks, mary jane high heels). Depending on the fabrics, I bet anyone could get away with it!

The status is NOT quo.

If something is taken from the checked bag, it's definitely theft. I'm very sorry, Sean.

I should have said I feel too old for it now and like my body has changed enough for me to feel self-conscious about it. I even tried on a little corduroy mini the other day and was like, no way. It was something I totally would have worn 6-10 years ago, though.

3 oz containers in a 1 gallon ziploc bag

I though it was a 1 quart bag.

Yeah, we packed the toiletries bag because of the carry on restrictions on liquids.

Argh! What about cosmetics that are less than 3 oz? Do I have to figure out a way to decant them into a 3 oz container, or can they stay in their little jars and tubes? And I bet I can't carry lipstick in my purse while I'm flying, can I?

You might give a stewardess a stealth makeover.

What is your on-plane wear, oh, lady of the cupcakes? Do you have a pared-down verson of the standard gear that doesn't make TSA think they have to search each layer of petticoat?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Do I have to figure out a way to decant them into a 3 oz container, or can they stay in their little jars and tubes?

They're fine as long as they're in the bag and less than 3 oz. At least, that's been my experience.

And I bet I can't carry lipstick in my purse while I'm flying, can I?

Technically, no, though I've been through security several times with chapstick and lip gloss in my purse and never had a problem.
