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

Have you tried ebay, sarameg? It's where I got my Indian silk scarves I hang on my walls.

re: girdles--is there much of a difference between girdles and Spanx? I looked at the Spanx website and was heavily reminded of the undergarments of my youth. Boy, I was dreading the possibility of incorporating those into my wardrobe. But then, yay, they went the way of the slide rule.

I should, but ebay is like a flea market to me. I get overwhelmed.

ebay is CRACK. I love it. It's where my vintage shit comes from too, the slips and the shirt dresses and the scooter dresses--search terms and search alerts is where it's at.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I really need to dig out that video of Jon Hamm playing Lysander from our college days.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I honestly, straight up, want a chainmail bra.

They're pretty cool. I wouldn't turn one down if someone gave me one, but my budget for Impractical Clothes That Make My Boobs Look Great tends to run to corsets.

I have the fake kinkiest life. What's up with that?

Speaking of which, Steph, I can't find shibaru in Los Angeles. San Diego, yes. LA, no. That doesn't seem right.
