  I did it!
EDIT: I was *totally* on TV friday night. Channel 4. Just for a couple seconds, but I was smiling, apparently, while pulling on a dress. Wow!!


found *the* dress. got up at 5:30 am to drive to Towson, wayyyy on the other side of baltimore. To the once a year Filene's basement WEDDING DRESS SALE... a couple hundred of my closest friends all vying for gowns gowns gowns! Any gown will do! It was mad crazy when we got in- empty racks, piles of dresses. But after a while we all realized that the size 8's just were not for us. I picked up the one (I feel like I should name her!) near the start and Jenny (my hero!!) and I carried it around with us the rest of the 1.5 hours it took to decide if there was anything better. there wasn't.. or it was stained or marked. no thanks!

yeah... if anyone watches Baltimore news, I was on probably.. a pervert video guy watching girls get dressed filmed me looking all embarassed. Speaking of which- there were skivvies seen. not even bathing suits/biker shorts. PANTIES! Ew! (there were totally men in the store too- what were they thinking???)

so- here she is, floofy skirt and train and all. needs some adjusting, but I like her!


and a close up:


Now, just need to get a contract with our location!
