Also ugh quester! Glad she realized that that was some bullshit as she was explaining it.
I am so happy to be home, today was about a million years long. And now I am going to go to bed, go directly to bed, do not pass Go, do not collect $200.
I've already fed the critters and am now having dinner, so not all that directly, but that is certainly my mindset.
I would like to go to bed, but someone who was supposed to be home at 9 from a movie with friends is not home and not answering texts.
Just a quick note to say how much I appreciate this place and you all and thank you for being my family.
Also I have had a fair bit of wine because of the above
and I am trying to figure out what to wear to a hugo (an hugo? this is an important question for buffistae)
And it is necessary to tell the corset story now, which ... well ok dragoncon with a bff
and we go to try on corsets because I have always wanted one.
And they lace me up and I have a panic because it feels exactly like the Unpleasant Brace I wore for three years.
but bff is there and she's a superhero so I cannot let on I am having a panic. So I buy the corset and the jacket to go with and none of it I can afford, and we swan out.
And I do not wear this again until I confess all my weaknesses to a friend a year later and she figures out a way to lace it that 1. doesn't feel like Unpleasant Brace and 2. that I can take on and off myself.
And, readers, I had the best time. Also I found a hat [link]
Good hat. Good.
"Corset and the jacket to go with it" -- do you remember which company it was? Was it possibly Damsel in this Dress?
Child has been located. And now I rage.
I'm sorry msbelle.
That's a great story and an excellent hat (and entire look!)
argh, mac. stop with the bad behavior!
That is an awesome hat, hippo!
