Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

But also, I realize my favorite dressup outfit for YEARS was actually a romper, so.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

90s to me: Baggy-ish jeans, body suit, open flannel shirt, possibly tied around your waist.

I would have said blazer instead of flannel shirt, but yes to the baggy jeans and body suit.

I was not a blazer and shoe boots, but certainly knew a lot of people who were!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Basically, the three 90's choices are Angela (the look above),Rayanne (more punkish), and Sharon (floral dress).

Because books.

I think '90s fashion is mostly Julia Roberts in Sleeping with the Enemy to me. Although I don't actually know if that movie predates the '90s.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Okay - crazy. A friend and I were JUST talking about the amazing-ness of the body suit today!

White people choices, maybe -- what about TLC??

Standing. Right. Here. With either a lace broomstick skirt, or a cotton/spandex blend mini skirt, and hair you could probably see from space.

Bodysuits are the worst -- how many women gave up on re-fastening the crotch in a bar bathroom? (One, anyway....)
