Hey guys, I need a word that means "thoughtful, but in the sense of being an intellectually rigorous thinker, not considerate". Anybody?
Contemplative is the only thing that comes to mind, but I'm not sure if that's quite right.
It's possible that he's in the land of perpetual Wednesday, or the crazy melty land, or you know, the world without shrimp.

And I guess I'm sharing a brain with Teppy today.

Analytical?
Ooh, good one. I think I'll go with this.
So I'm trying to find three words to describe the kid who I think is a good serious thinker, doesn't let people get away with intellectual laziness ("Dude, I heard the coach got sued for calling somebody a name!" "Do you actually have a source for that, or does it just sound true?"), and has a presence beyond his age. Then I have to find three words for the kid I find honestly kind of annoying. Erg.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm with Frank -- "contemplative" is more of a personality trait than an assessment of rigor.

Are they the same kid? Because they totally could be.

of the full length I like this one: [link] wide straps, good support, A-line skirt, can be cut off for a more usable length later.

Is the aim to find something you maybe could possibly wear again, even if you had to smuggle it over the border into Canada?
Snork.
I was thinking that I could raise the hem and make it a cocktail dress after the wedding, but no! Smuggling to Canada to sell on the Sekrit Toronto Bridal Black Market is a much better idea.
Mostly I'm looking for something that won't make me look lumpy or give me too much cleavage.
And crap, I forgot to ask about shoe color.

Sure, they could be, but in this case they're not.
I am SO not a one-word kind of person. I keep thinking of things like, "Serious, but not in a humorless kind of way. Determined, but with a wry sense of humor."

If you're looking for one where you could raise the hem, the one msbelle linked to is probably your best choice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Who's making you use only three words, Emily? That's weird.
I like this dress that no one else picked, but not if you need long: [link]
