Saffron: But we've been wed. Aren't we to become one flesh? Mal: Well, no, uh... We're still two fleshes here, and I think that your flesh ought to sleep somewhere else.

[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.

Glad to see your pixils back, sj. We missed you.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

when did wedding dresses go strapless?

I've been wondering the same thing. All of the bridal magazines are filled with strapless dresses. I definitely don't want strapless. Having the bride pulling at her top all day is definitely not the look I'm going for.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

If it's altered right, you won't. My sister was in her dress for 14 hours and not once did she pull up on her dress. She's about a 42 DDD.

Which is to say, if strapless is what you love but are afraid of, you don't have to be. If you don't like strapless, then boo strapless.

I would be anyway just because I'm very uncomfortable and self-conscious in anything strapless.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My wedding dress was strapless, and once it went on I barely thought of it - as Aimee says, if it's fitted properly, it'll stay up.

That said, any decent bridal shop should have multiple styles for you to choose from even if the magazines only have one sillouhette.

Our wings are not tired

Dear doG I am bored. I fly to Orlando so that I could sit in this theatre alone and surf the web and work on other shows. At least it's a good day rate.

Just an opinion here, but try one everything you like and a few you think you won't. You might be surprised at what you end up really loving.

This sums up my dating history.

I will. Where did your sister end up getting her dress?

Mostly lurking...

Also, sj, I was in a wedding where the bride actually had spaghetti straps added to all of the dresses. It's very easy to do. Actually, probably one of the easiest alterations of all time!
