Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I could rock the high-bottom, but what's up with the strings?

Our wings are not tired.
Oh, Jesse. That sucks so much. And even more for your poor kitty!
It's something that the military is aware of, but tends to get glossed over, but massive troop deployment always winds up taking its share of casualties on shit like that. I was surprised to find out that friendly fire accounts for about 20% of battle casualties.
Far and away one of the most unsettling aspects of reading (your friend) Hillenbrand's book Unbroken was the startling number of lives lost in training, rescue attempts, etc.

Casper could rock those bottoms - in fact, they look suspiciously like something in the Lands End kids line.
In other fashion news, I bought Casper a black rah-rah skirt today, and she already has knee-high black 3-layers-of-fringe Minnetonka boots (a birthday present from ebay.) She's basically living in 1986, fashion-wise. I am hesitant to tell her so. (Shopping with her was hilarious today. I wanted to buy her a classic little-girls dress - we're going to my grandfather's 90th birthday party this weekend - and she kept saying, 'that's something a SIX year old would wear.' I think she won.) (In other other fashion news, my mother told me she's thinking of wearing a tunic and capri leggings to said birthday party. She's 62, people. Am I going to be the only age-appropriate person there?)

Maybe it's the Cambridge speaking, but I think the right tunic and capri leggings are totally 62-year-old style.

I do think that's a fine causal look for her age, but this a cocktail party and sit-down dinner for about 30 at a posh retirement community in Annapolis, so I was thinking a little more formal.

Oh, sure -- I wouldn't say it's appropriate for every event! But it does sound like what our 60-something Chief Counsel or whatever her title is wears to work all the time!

I wanted this dress for myself: [link] (They didn't have it in Casper's size, and she wouldn't even consider it.)
She tried this on, and it was darling, but did sort of make her look like a 6 year old: [link] An ADORABLE 6 year old.
