Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

It's nice to have a Dem candidate who doesn't look ridiculous in headware (AKA, Dukakis in a tank with a helmet).

Well, everyone else is looking at floor-length. I could buck the trend and show off my gams, but I'm not meant to be the center of attention.
If the whole point is choosing your own dress (in the prescribed color), then choose your own dress. That means, the dress most flattering to you.
Passing out on the floor due to the heat is not flattering to anybody.
Adaptibility of the dress is a legitimate concern when deciding on flatteringness. (Go halter! Choose halter! Although I'm not wild about the poufiness of most of the short skirts.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That picture might be the only time I've found Obama physically attractive.
Maybe I am a cowgirl after all.

Wow. He really does have Rock Star going on, doesn't he? (I'm still pissed at him for the "periodically when she's feeling down" potshot at Clinton, though.)

Those long dresses look so weird. They are appropriate for prom and black-tie only. You should be allowed a short dress!
Seriously -- are all the men wearing tuxes?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
FWIW my putative MOH can wear whatever she wants.
Good to know.

Post marked.
I wish I had time to go through the dress pics, but instead I have to go to the meeting from hell which is every day. EVERY DAY. Wait, or do I have to go to the meeting which is cut off by the meeting from hell which is every day?
Either way, I'm about to be late.

Um, I don't know, but probably.
This is a Midwestern wedding, you guys. The bridal party is formal! I can't be the only one with a cocktail-length skirt or my family will talk about it for YEARS.
