The outfit I wore to Prom, each piece was $40, give or take $10 (the overdress was more, the underdress was less). You can probably get more use out of that skirt, so long as you don't mind the handwash issue.

I'd end up paying $35-40 in a store somewhere, I know. So it doesn't seem horrendously expensive, especially if you can vouch for the workmanship.

Stay safe, Daniel! Our piles of snow are now covered with a glistening glaze of ice.

I can haz warmth! I'm presently in Abu Dhabi airport en route back to Bangkok. Yay!

Again, what do I know about bra's?

Oh, so many many times I have bitten my tongue rather than appear rude, but - Omnis, mate, please stop hurting the apostrophe. It is a hard-working and elegant little punctuation mark, and shoving it haphazardly into random plurals makes the Baby Jesus cry.

The one time I tried an X-back, I ended with all sorts of neck issues. And yet the alternative isn't THAT much better. It's just I cannot have anything pressing on the tendons that run neck-shoulder/collarbone bump. I actually need something that rides right along the bump, which is bone, not muscle or tendon.

I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll never have a perfect bra without a custom made one. Even the really exspensive nice ones, like Wacol and co, just aren't cut for my shape. I gave up.

Daniel just pulled in the driveway.

I know Town Shoppe does alterations. It's included in the price of the bra, even not so spendy ones. Maybe other swank stores do too?

World's Best Boyfriend. I kid you not. The man gets home from work two hours later than he should due to work wackiness plus weather, and yet he is out there right now clearing the ice off my car.

Yeah, he might just keep the trophy for that one.

Town Shoppe alterations are wonderful. It's the only way I've ever gotten a strapless bra that fits.

I just watched the "Little Minnesota" episode of HIMYM, and I cannot stop laughing.

I'm glad Daniel got back home, WindSparrow.

Over 30 wounded IDF soldiers since the ground op started, about 11 hours ago.

Names I know and probably are in there/will be called soon keeps popping up in my mind. Government granted permission to call tens of thousands to reserve duty yesterday.

Tens of thousands. And they still not calling this war.

Fay, I'm sorry. My grammar skills are bad. Spelling too. Language classes were always my weak point. I re-read my posts, and catch a lot of errors, but not all. I'm sure I make Baby Jesus cry a lot. It's not on purpose, I assure you.

Shir, I have no clue what to say. You know you and yours are in my thoughts and prayers.
