I'm sorry I'm being so whiny. I just really overdid it today.
sj, I'm sorry your wedding dress hunt is not going as smoothly as you would hope.
[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.

sj, does it have to be silk?
sj, rest up and hydrate to clear out the overdidits...then relax and try again.
I ran into the first bride I ever married today, which reminded me of the gorgeous amethyst dress she wore. She found it at Macy's for $125, a couple of days before the wedding. She was ridiculously happy with it and the wedding photos were awesome.
If it didn't happen today, it will soon!
Best test was 12.4, cut off is 12.5. I haven't taken my vitamins (with iron) this week, so ya know, maybe if I actually do take them regularly, next time they are here, I'll be ready for them.
Whoa, Andi! You are SO much closer than I was. Bless you for trying and good luck on your future attempt.
The blood drive I talked about mounting in April will probably now happen in May, in conjunction with the local business owner's association. They are killer marketers and the drive will be part of a 'personal renovation' contest we are mounting. It should get a LOT of blood into the system. Yay.
sj, did you try J.Crew?
They have a lot of silk and a lot in stock. Not all of it is through the roof expensive.
and a lot of their bridesmaid dresses come in white [link]
Ann Taylor too. [link]
(My Sister threw a big wedding crazy fast. She put the "maid" in bridesmaid I'll tell you what.)
Trying definitely counts, Andi. Good for you.
sj, how about this for under whatever you find?
poor smonster, had to go to Urgent Care, the opthamologist, the pharmacy (allergic reaction, I think) ON HER BIKE IN THE RAIN ON VACATION. Tom and I got back from work and she's crashed out in bed, poor thing.
I feel so bad for her.
sj, when you feel up to it, post a link to your ideal dress and size, and I am sure the hivemind can point you in the right direction!
