Me and the Rat-Husband-To-Be totally agree, to the point that movie and tv soundtracks are playing a part in our wedding. We are getting married in a theater that has a pipe organ, and we are friends with organists, and so our reception isn't going to be some stupid DJ and crappy dancing (as in I dance really…

I was cringing as I watched that takeoff. They ran out of runway! It's been many years since I've flown in a small aircraft, but I remember very vividly the things my dad had to go thru to make sure everything was alright and ready to fly before we would go anywhere in our old Piper Cherokee. Weight was a very big…

Or that link could not work at ALL. Stupid thing. Why you hate me, Kinja? I can't get it to work, but if you click on the measure/order button, then the elegant line, and then Jill Hoverman, and scroooooooollllll down to the regency riding overbust... that's the one I ordered.

I had gone scouring the internet for several days to find a place. A lot of the sites I found were massively out of my price range or you had to live in the same city to do the fitting, or both. But then I found www.romantasyweb.com and they have several corsetiers working for them, and have several levels of custom…

*Looks at picture*

I want this in my frame shop! Maybe then I won't be pulling tape too long and have it stick to itself around my finger and won't come off and then it just goes all pear-shaped.

Or Michael Rosenbaum, who makes the sexiest Lex Luthor ever. That man just looks weird with hair now.

My husband-very-soon-to-be has been thinning as well, but he still looks good, and he wears a mean hat. Vests and hats are sooooo sexy. Fedoras, top hats, panama hats. Give me something with a little bit of class, and a little bit of dirt, please. Tilt it a little jauntily, give me a smug look, and let me take the…

I love Empire waists.. I truly do... But with my boobs and hips I really do look awfully preggers in the style. Which is a shame, because I wanna cosply Jane Austen books. I can do the hair!

I'm headed to Dragon*Con in a month to be all nerdy and get married, and then be nerdy some more... and I know I'm going to run into sooooo much Shelf!Boob. Maybe I should carry a small tray to set upon them. Sort of a "here, hold this for me a moment, would you?"

They do. It's called a corset.

Early 90's I was neck deep in my Mercedes Lackey reading / Just Moved South / Braces and glasses and awful clothes awkward early teen stage. I was listening to soft rock radio pretty exclusively. I didn't have any idea about expirimenting with music and such, and had no friends for a period of... middle school. Except…

That puppet is terrifying. I think it's the eyes. Those eyelashes, those weird eyebrows. *shudders*

I may have read too much into your comments. It's been a long week. If I have, I do apologize. I think I'm just frustrated with everything right now. I need convention-therapy.

I gotta throw my hat into the ring on this one.

I agree with this statement. Dragon*con sucks at your wallet till it is dry, and Comic-con has to be worse. And in 12 years of going to Dragon*con, the only people I have ever met who don't seem to be nerds or geeks or fans of SOMETHING there tend to be family members brought along for child-care or something similar.…

That's what me and the Mr. have done. We shall be known as Mr. and Mrs. WinterRose. All hail the new line!

I have a dream that it might show up on io9 as an impressive act of geekery, but even if it doesn't, I intend to post in a bunch of places, yes.

I really wish I could, but darts like that tend to be cut and sewn and trimmed. I'm actually probably just going to sew a whole new uniform myself, since I have the skills and the equipment. I just don't have the tome or money right now since my Trekkie leanings have to take a back to seat to my Doctor Who wedding…

And now I'm way curious, since I was off the net for a couple of days and missed your non-edited comment.
