This website says NOLA is cheaper, but mostly b/c of housing and I'm a little sceptical of their algorithm. [link]

[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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Much decision-making ~ma to you, smonster.
I think my facebook is about to become home to a debate about why skimpy costumes for kids and tweens are not appropriate, and saying "It's just for Halloween" is not an excuse. This should be interesting to watch happen.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I want to go to the library where it's nice and cool but I have to walk through the oven to get there.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I love a pro/con list, but put tangibles and intangibles on it.
Yes, yes, yes. Stuff like "I like the vibe of these people" is just as important as money, IMO.
Of course, I sometimes get crazy and give each thing on my pro/con list a weight. 5 if really really important, 1 if only mildly important, or somewhere in between.

I dunno. 9 year old hooker costumes are .... Jeebus. I can't even finish that sentence.

Smonster, tons of decision~ma for you. I wish I could offer advice, but I don't think I can offer anything that hasn't been said. Trust your gut. Don't feel pressured by their calendar. It's a HUGE decision.

Um. Awkward sharing of info, but hey, it's Bitches. There was talk with costume shop folk that reminded me of talk in here wrt bra sizes. And they said there was this handy chart online for some of the manufactures. Dunno if it's well known, but thought I'd share. And hey, it's boobies! So, of course I pay attention. [link]

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
That's not awkward, o-a; that's VALUABLE.
Thanks.

well, awkward in that I'm not a bra wearer. But yes, valuable, hence the sharing.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
It's only awkward if you found the chart because you were looking for boobies anywhere you can find them, like the boys in my 4th grade class who ripped the bra/lingerie pages out of the Sears catalogs because that was the only place they could find pictures of mostly naked women.
...unless you WERE doing that but are unashamed. In which case, STILL not awkward!

Library cool. Staying here forever. ahhhhhh.
As much as it makes me uncomfortable to look at some of them, I do believe kids should be able to wear whatever they want for one day a year. I don't remember any baby hookers in Pasadena last year but man some of those kids looked amazing! I'm guessing lots of professional makeup artists and costumers live up there.
