oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

My onerous task was not being rude to the head teen services person. he doesn't like the teen blog - but I revived it anyway. he wants to do face book , which cool . But he has 12 friends. all the teens I know have 700 friends. they don't read there wall anymore than they read a blog. and the local libraries - have 43 friends. the teen blog jumped from 12 hits a day to about 30 as soon as I started posting. with no advertising. It jumped to almost 50 with just a little advertising. One more time people - getting the word out to just one more person counts. We don't live in a world where people get there info from the town crier.

ehmm.... end rant

next onerous task ... getting myself to bed by tenish. I have some sort of minor stomach thing going on and sleep seemed to help

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Sue, is it just me or has Etsy vintage gotten noticeably more expensive in the last few months? I feel like I used to be able to find a lot more dresses in the $20-30 range.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Speaking of vintage, does anyone want plus-size vintage undergarments? I have a small stack of bras and girdles I've worn maybe once each.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Would it be ... rude to ask sizes?

hip deep in pie

Holli, I don't look at vintage stuff on a regular basis, and generally I'm looking at plus-sized clothes, which are always fairly expensive. In general I find pricing for vintage on Etsy tends to be pretty high, esp after you add in shipping.

Not at all! They don't have sizes in them, but going by my size when I wore/bought them, the bras are probably 42DD, the girdles XXL.

Dang. I was hoping to help you with the bras, but they are too large in the band and too small in the cup.

I think I'm spoiled by my local vintage store, is all.

Have you seen the stuff Top Runway makes? They do vintage repro with custom sizing. I haven't bought from them yet, but they look awfully pretty.
