- So tired that I am physically shaking.

+ Baby has her first LBD, just in time for next Monday's Commencement (aka graduation ceremony). It is pretty smokin', and manages to do things like accentuate the epicness of my chestular area while ALSO (it being really rather modest as far as LBDs go) enabling me to e.g. lean forward at more than a 20° angle without spilling everywhere. /TMI?

+ Also a Jeeves & Wooster short story omnibus, Unseen Academicals, and Boneshaker, by Cherie Priest.

- I really-truly only meant to buy the Wodehouse, and to wait until UA was out in paperback, sdlfkahslfh my wallet.

+ Seriously though, ♥dress♥! Mostly I am amazed that I actually got up the courage to buy one in the first place; I seriously think it must be... what, four years since I've worn a skirt/dress? Five? Pretending not to have plus-size body image issues is all very well, but I'll pretend not to have plus-size body image issues while fully covered from elbow to ankle, thankyouverymuch. That is, until now. Granted, I'll be wearing 150 denier opaque black tights - but they'll be able to see where my calves are. :OOOOO

- Now I have to go buy a shrug-jackety-thing-whatever to go over it, ahhhhh does it never end.

TAKE A PICTURE OF YOU IN THE DRESS. ~~holding your wooster omnibus omg~~

Dress sounds super cute! Also, I think (hope?) you'll be asleep when the polls close, but I suspect this may be relevant to your interests.

Yesssss, thank you! I am about to sleep now, so hopefully in six hours there will be some substantial numbers. *has no idea how long it will take to officially call*

We will see! There will be pictures taken on the day, but I still haven't managed to grow out my terrible awful no-good murder-the-stylist-and-all-that-she-loves hairstyle from the beginning of this summer - so whether or not any of them actually get posted on the internets is a matter for the Good Hair Day Gods to decide.

My plans are to go home and sleep for a couple hours, as my guess is it's going to be too close to call without counting every last ballot and that's going to take a damn long time.

I vote pictures also! It does sound kind of awesome.

I also vote sleep. D: I have many, many Scrabble boards for entertainment. Which will possibly put you to sleep.

Oooh, that sounds like a sweet dress!
