Well shit. I appear to have left my phone (yes, my iPhone) at school. They are now closed so I can' t be sure. Fuckity.
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I just filled out a customer service satisfaction survey for a service call. One of the questions was "was the service person neat and well groomed?" Well he had long hair that was a bit unkempt and his khakis were wrinkled but he was a tech guy so I checked "meets expectations".

I figure if a service person doesn't smell funky and isn't all muddy/greasy when he shows up at my place, it's all good, as long as he does the job well and efficiently.

. . . Oh, right, the kitten.
Congrats, Glamcookie. I'm glad Casper's feeling so comfortable around her new people.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Question: is it wise to hem a half-slip that's too long? By "wise" I mean, if I hem a half-slip that's too long, will it look horrible and too heavy at the bottom, thus making my dress's skirt look all heavy at the bottom?
I'm half-tempted to just cut it. But that would lead to dangling threads, wouldn't it?

Can you cut it and then do a little roll-hem? Better yet, do you have a serger that can cut and then stitch it for you?

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
Maybe cut it a little too short, and then add lace at the bottom as the hem?

I should have noted that I need to wear it tomorrow, and I don't have lace, although I could run out to Target and get something trim-like.
Can you cut it and then do a little roll-hem?
I should also note that I barely know how to sew on a button. So while I know what a roll-hem looks like, I assumed they were made by magical sewing elves.
Better yet, do you have a serger that can cut and then stitch it for you?
I truly have no idea what a serger is.
Possibly the cut-too-short-and-add-trim idea might work.
t edit Although if I'm going to run out to Target, I'm much more likely to buy an inexpensive short half-slip while I'm there, versus buying trim to sew on by hand.
Poor planning, c'est moi.
