Yay Scrappy's DH! That wonderful!
Overwhelming? How much more than whelming would that be exactly?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I think all of those had marine options. I just wasn't linking right.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, I hope things go well for your DH, Scrappy!
Thanks, MFNLaw. Hopefully we're seeing a smoothing out of things, a tenuous treaty for the moment.

lisah, the roads around here are just wet, not snowy. Or rather, the one road I can see.
The only floor length wedding partiers I've noted were at a wedding in near Toronto in July. Open-air, late afternoon. The guests weren't as formal. Lots of dressy suits. (And me in a very red dress.)

Me = idiot. This is what I get for doing real work today. My brain, it is mush.

I certainly hope so. Did you see the recall of Fentanyl patches last week? I'm not sure if they're still in your arsenal. [link]

The 2 roads I can see in downtown DC are wet, but OMG! You'd think it was snowpocalypse part deux! I guess no one wants to be stuck for 8 hours in the mixing bowl again.
edited for proper apocalyptic spelling.

It's not like I've reworn the tea length bridesmaids dresses I have any more than the full length ones.
Full skirted tea length bridesmaid dresses at thriftstores = new fluffy skirts for me!
Anyone who want me to be a bridesmaid would probably be having a gothy, steampunk, pirate, or other "alternative style" wedding, which means I never have to worry about bridesmaid dresses again.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Mine: veejane in blue linen (her choice),
For the record, this was an ankle-length dress, off the rack from Macy's (but not, obviously, from their wedding dept.), and I wore it as a guest to another wedding and then altered it to make it below-the-knee with vents and now wear it with a suit jacket to spring and summer job interviews. I feel that is an unqualified win.
I have not yet altered the dress I wore to my most recent wedding (black, cleavagey, floor-length) to be cocktail-length, but that is mostly laziness and an aversion to working with jersey material.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
because of ita's links before I am now looking at flatware. I have some stuff from thrift stores that I would love to find full sets of, but I do not know names and I am sure it it no longer being made.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Jilli, if a close friend was having a very traditional wedding and asked you to be in it and wear a very traditional dress, would you accept?
