Thanks for the links! I am perusing as I type.
In terms of size, I'm actually really small, so I feel bad that I was bitching about my dress not fitting - I mean, it doesn't, but I would still be probably a 2 or a 4 in dresses. That dress is just incredibly form-fitting and so even the few pounds I put on make it a no-go. I'm sorry I'm so dramatic; I just used to be insanely tiny so now that I am something of a normal size I tend to freak out. I know it's wrong, but there you have it.
do not apologize for your size. it is annoying when clothes stop fitting, no matter what size.
now I am off to ebay.
Thanks! I appreciate it. I love this one that someone linked, and I'm now browsing the websites some of the other dresses were on. I wish that one weren't $130, but it sure is pretty.
Try Craigslist if it's local to where you are. People are often getting rid of prom dresses or bridesmaid dresses.
This is available in a 4, and it's on clearance:

I like the sexy one, msbelle. And the Jessica McClintock with the long sleeves would actually be really fun if the sleeves were removed and the skirt shortened to tea-length.
We're supposed to get a snow-spanking Monday evening through Tuesday.
And us on Tuesday as well -- it seems weird that it would hit you and us in the same time period (we usually have half a day or sometimes even a day of lag behind you guys). So that might mean it's a big-ass storm. Hmm.
We got a couple of inches today. It was enough to make it fun to go our and shovel while Ellie slid down the hill and Frisco helped me shovel. It was warm enough to be kind of nice and peaceful. Unfortunately, the storm started with freezing rain so I think there will be a lot of slipping and crashing until the sun can warm things up.
I love that about Colorado. You get a bad storm and get to enjoy the snow, but then the hassle part is gone in a few days.
