I mean, it's a musical.

The thing I read said it was originally developed as a musical for Showtime (maybe? a pay channel, I'm pretty sure) but isn't anymore. But maybe still has musical numbers? IDK

Yeah, that seems like a terrible sign, sorry.

This is the tooth I broke back in June, so at this point I would kinda welcome a root canal if it means the whole process is close to over. Every step has taken twice as long as initially estimated and been a huge PITA (although I have not been in as much pain as when the tooth first broke, so that's good).

Argh, I meant to listen to Fresh Air at 1 and I totally forgot! I wrote it down and everything! Dammit.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

That's more casual than what I usually see people wearing at bar mitzvahs, but you should wear what you're comfortable in.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

If it's more casual than usual, then I wouldn't be comfortable in it. Hmm. Thanks, Hil. I think I will have to go shopping; the only things I have left that are dressier are decidedly not appropriate, as they are either sequined or too cleavagey.

I will Google, but any ideas about appropriate wear are welcome. (Is the owl dress OK for rehearsal dinner?)

ETA: Talked to M's mom, and yes, I do have to go shopping for both Friday and Saturday. Poop. I will head to some very nice consignment ships in the area tomorrow.

Good luck finding something appropriate, Strix.

Our wings are not tired.

I am many years behind on The Good Wife. Can I just jump back in?
