It's very girlish in a way that makes me a afraid I'll never actually wear it.
Wear it on your next date! I command you.
My lamb/mutton issues notwithstanding, I think that's sage advice.
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Profound ass + SUPER full = UNflassering.
It just depends how you feel about your ass, I say. I enjoy the exaggeration, sometimes.

I would be so overdressed! I think not. But I will wear it.

SO NOT TRUE. NOT AT ALL. Also, when in doubt, add petticoats.

Oh yeah, that dress would be awesome with petticoats.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I always worry vaguely about the whole lamb/mutton thing since most of my sartorial advice comes from sixteen year olds. But it`s not exactly a look dressed to seduce, what with the whole cargo pants and band t-shirts thing going, so maybe I needn`t be fussed.
Sophia, yeah, I feel for your friend. Faith is weird and God answers prayers in weird ways ime. But we had a similar situation with a dear friend who did die of stomach cancer. Her local church believed so fervently that she would be healed that it caused something of a crisis of faith for them when she died. Not healthy. But I understand that desire, wanting something to be other than it is. I just hope it doesn`t rob her of time with and support for her sister while they are still together.

No, he would be underdressed.
Man, I missed that about being in University. We were such obnoxious dressers. We'd team-overdress at the drop of a hat.
Now I have to do 50s-fu all by myself.

I vote we not fuss. Other people can be so tiresome. Maybe I'll re-evaluate when I'm 45. Or 50.

I just feel so bad for her, because she seems so sure that her faith will make her sister better, and it seems like a terrible burden to have if her sister dies-- that maybe if she was more faithful, her sister would have lived.
Oh yeah, that is awful. And wrong-headed in a way that's not useful.

I would also be overdressed for the setting. I may still wear a dress, but not that one.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
New $100 Bill Looks Like Something Straight Out of Hogwarts
The familiar pictures of Founding Father Ben Franklin is still there, but there are a lot of new high-tech features being put in the new $100 bill, including a moving microprint that "looks like something straight out of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry":
The blue 3-D Security Ribbon on the front of the new $100 note contains images of bells and 100s that move and change from one to the other as you tilt the note. The Bell in the Inkwell on the front of the note is another new security feature. The bell changes color from copper to green when the note is tilted, an effect that makes it seem to appear and disappear within the copper inkwell.
