(I don't, I really don't. When would I ever wear it? I'm trying to get rid of impractical stuff. It would be covered in unremovable cat fur in 15 seconds.)
You could have a form, like with rental cars, where you mark the existing damage before he goes out and any (hopefully!) new damage after he comes back...
And I could tell you about the 4-color rule but I might get in trouble with geekchick.
Thank you soooo much for posting this -- my girlfriend loves victorian finery and I promised that she would get some goodies along those lines at some indeterminate point in the future.
Well, if you want to be talked out of it, that first thing gave me a big old yawn. I'm not at all clear it'd flatter your figure either. The gown is the only one I actually like; I think that's quite nice. Get one that matches the purple wig o'sassiness and go see Marie Antoinette.
If you're just looking to spend $500 on clothes I can find a lot of other things I'd much rather see you in. And some of them you could even wear without needing a costume ball to go to!
Actually for $500 I'm sure there'd be a couple perfectly mundane items too. But even if there weren't you can wear pretty much anything on the outside nowadays if you're careful. Which brings me to something I never thought I'd say: Thank you Madonna!

but only if you clean out a bunch of other stuff and have the $$$$
Then you come up here for a weekend, I'll have my outfit by then and we can do something I've never done and go to the opera.

Opera? *perk* Do tell.

Date: 2006-02-10 07:08 pm (UTC)It's something I've never done and always wanted to. One of my goals is to get out to things like the theater, symphony and stuff along these lines.
Most of the people I know are not into any of that so it makes it very difficult to get motivated.

As for the Opera I would have no idea where to begin to look (probably another reason I haven't gone).
