So, my fab raincoat arrived today (actually, it arrived Tuesday, but I wasn't here). I tried it on, and it's too small (cries). Luckily, they have the larger size, so we try again.
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.
Oh, ACK! I was actually just thinking about that Vortex—had meant to ask if you'd received it yet, since I got the lamp I ordered the same day you ordered your coat.
Boo hiss on being too small and yay on them having the larger size! (That's my one complaint about J. Peterman, is that everything runs really small.)
It ran so small, that I was considering going up two sizes, but they didn't have it. She offered to give me the measurements, but since I don't know my measurements, it wouldn't have been helpful :)
Oh, Andi, I hope that's not speaking from experience. If so, I think you and Cash need to trade nightmare keyboard experiences.
Heh, so says the woman who's still lacking a "Q" on her keyboard.

It was on a WebTV IR keyboard. I ended up getting another one via eBay. Ever try to use eBay without a keyboard? Not the most convenient shopping experience.
Morning, All!
W00t, SA! Get on with your Masterful Self!
So, The Fat Lady came in second at the party on Saturday. I'm cool with that. Mad-Eye Moody looked really great. And the two other portraits didn't even place! Apparently, people really loved my sconces and candles! And I was the only person at the entire party with an owl. Pictures to come, when I get around to getting my camera and my laptop in the same room again.
Hope the non-sleepers had some success being non-non-sleepers.
Congratulations, SA! And YAY for second place, Epic! Did Mad Eye come in first, or someone else?
Mad-Eye Moody was First, Sirius Black was Third.
This does sound like The Most Fabulous Party, Epic!

It was a very good time. I was really impressed by the number of people who turned out in really well put-together ensembles. The judges must have had a really hard time choosing. I think my favorite was the woman who was Hermione dressed her son (2-ish) as Dobby. He was wearing a pillowcase, 2 wildly disparate socks and a shapeless hat in Gryffindor's colors (presumably to hide his lack of bat-like ears), and she passed out S.P.E.W. membership stickers. He was so cute - he tried to blow out my (battery-operated) candles. So when the contest was over and I got out of my frame, I had him blow while I turned the base to turn them off. So cute!
