I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

This corset is supposed to have detachable garters but I bought it second hand and it didn't have them.

Hope your 'pewter gets on the mend fast. Do you know what happened?

Oh, it's not mending. It'd dead. Fried logic board. I'm waiting until after the WWDC next week, and then I'm buying myself a new computer. I can't really afford it but I have no choice - this is what I do ALL my work on.

That sucks, Pete.

Am I right in assuming ND will be handling music duties at the prom (at least the setup thereof)? Will it be strictly iPod, or will there be an actual CD player? I won't bother to bring anything but travelling music if it's the former.

Our wings are not tired

I typically just play a bunch of stuff off my iTunes collection on the computer.

Have we made any arrangements for a sound system?

I checked my guidebook (yes, I compulsively buy guidebooks when I visit other cities) and the book store I was thinking of may have been Horizons, near Volunteer Park.

I get them for free from AAA! (Which reminds me, I need to stop by AAA tomorrow).

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I have confirmation at work that my shift won't be changed in the next three weeks, so schedule-wise i'm good to go! Now just need to find me a roomate so i can swing the expense side of things.

What on earth should i pack???? Something dressy for prom, obviously, corse, evidently, what else? Are we still seriously considering biking, kayaking, or other sporty events that require specific attire?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

if doing the underground tour, sounds like it might be chilly down there. Maybe a light jacket. Dunno about other things. I'm kind of in the follower mode mostly.

Erin, dressy is fine for Prom, but outrageously fun is even better! Many people do multiple costume changes, and fishnets, corsets, pvc, and lots lots of cleavage are common. Feel no pressure to be over the top (it's totally individual preference) but don't worry about overdoing it, either. Not possible. Have you looked at past Prom pics? If someone could Nilly some links, that might give you some ideas.

The rest of the time is just normal wear--whatever makes you feel comfortable.
