Dress ID Request
you all helped out so much when I was trying to figure out the designer and model name of the dress I wanted and now I have to ask for more of the same.
Friends of ours are getting married and the bride has found a dress she really likes. The store only had a model number for it and it was probably their internal ID. So can anyone identify this dress?
( The pictures are kind of blurry - taken by a cell camera but here's hoping: )
Thanks in advance!

On Vox: What a way to start the summer. . .
Wow, the past two weeks were nothing short of remarkable.
A subway train smashes into another on a line I ride regularly.
Not unexpectedly, Ed McMahon and Farrah Fawcett dies.
However, Michael Jackson and Billy Mays die rather suddenly.
California literally goes broke and resorts to paying its bills with IOUs!
The Washington Post figuratively goes broke and considers resorting to selling its reporters (and what little respect and credibility it has left) for up to a quarter million dollars.
Mark Sanford, while supposedly on the Appalachian Trail, hiked his way into a multi-year affair down Argentine Way.
Sarah Palin finally has her breakdown and resigns from the Alaskan governorship. She gives a speech that is nonsensical, even by Palin standards. Nobody has a clue what to make of it. Except Bill Kristol, who is always wrong.
And some guy shoots an employee at electronics store where I frequently go to not buy products.

Another cake! It's been like what? A couple of weeks?
This is probably the most elaborate cake I have ever made.
I wasn't even sure I was going to be able to pull this thing off after I drew the sketch full of lofty goals for myself.
For a girl's 16th Birthday party tomorrow.

Scrumptious Sweets
Hey everyone!
I remember having this website in my favourites, but was sad because they were only in the UK. I clicked on the link a few days ago and have discovered that they are now international! Yay!
I just thought I'd share; I did look and didn't see that anyone else had posted this. If they have feel free to ignore.

A Year and a Day Away ~ Progress (or lack thereof) Post
civil twilight will start at 7:01pm so it should be nicely dusky for the ceremony, and have started cooling off some.
(may have to bump to July 3rd to accommodate available honeymoon schedule/his leave dates)
If the 4th all important stuff must be finished by 9pm, before the city starts shooting off Independence Day fireworks. :D We should be close enough that if people want to wander outside to watch them in the distance they can, but far enough the noise shouldn't be disruptive inside (esp if we have a DJ going).
VENUE: Unitarian Universalist Church of Birmingham
Ceremony outdoors in the prayer garden, reception inside immediately after
(This way I don't have people out in the heat too long.)
COLORS: Dark red, white, cream and formal black for accents.

Men's suits
Yay, so today we found suits for our wedding! Thank you, Men's Wearhouse buy one, get one free sale! So my partner ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
thomwatson and I knew that we wanted linen suits (to go with our beachy, tropical, tiki vibe), but the first time we went to our local MW store a few weeks ago, they didn't have our corresponding sizes in both the jackets and slacks, and for some reason they weren't exactly very forthcoming about helping us find them. (Also, we were still a little non-committal about what we were looking for.)
fireworks cupcakes :)
Pie for a beginner?
a thank you note is not that hard...
For my own wedding, I wrote thank you notes promptly – either as soon as a gift arrived in the mail, or the week after I returned from my honeymoon. Why is it so difficult for people to express appreciation for the time and money someone put into giving them a present? I find it to be horribly rude. You only have to write a couple sentences and sign your name at the bottom. Not difficult.
(Also, I'll add another irritation - my former roommate's wedding was a month before mine. I attended in a pretty dress, with a nicely wrapped gift from her registry, and a card with a long personal note inside. She showed up at mine in flip-flops and shorts, without so much as a card in hand, stuffed her face with food and promptly left. Big surprise, I never got a thank you note from her, either.)
Floral question
I need your expert opinions now, though. My girls and I are doing our own bouquets, and I'm also putting together the corsages and what not. I was planning on ordering my bulk floral from Sam's (www.samsclub.com), and when I went to look to place my order I realized that there are different sizes and types of roses... I just thought roses were roses!!!
We definitely have a scary budget to keep to, so I'm worried. Does anyone really understand the difference in sizes/types/whatnot? Did you order last minute bulk floral from somewhere and love it?
I want red roses and orange lillies, if you need to know.
TIA!
However, my digestive system does not love them.
I had to sit on the toilet for almost an hour last night due to explosive diarrhea. (I sat there for almost an hour because every time I stood up, I got that feeling and had to sit back down for another round)
When I was done, I naturally looked in the toilet. It was bright reddish orange and dotted with chili pepper skins. If the batteries in my digital camera weren't dead, I would have taken a picture to post over at

Instead, I get other weird side-effects.
I seem to now have LOTS of excess air/gas in my cooch, I'm always "farting" from there. If I sit down for ages and not move, it builds up, so getting up is embarrassing if other people are around. The only time I ever got this before was when my ex bf and I would have doggy style sex.
I also have to shit way more. Yesterday I had to shit six times. This is a lot, even for me.
I do have to shit loads if I get nervous or excited. I went to see WWE Raw live last night, I'd been looking forward to it for nine months. So at least I know why I was shitting lots.
It hurt too, my ass was burning by the sixth time. Ow.
And am I the only person who has to pee way more in cold weather? It was uber cold the other night (down to almost 0°C), and for the whole evening I had to pee like fifty times. I'd go and 20 minutes I'd be busting again. It's only in really cold weather though, cos it was a lot warmer the next night and I just went the normal amount of times. Alcohol makes me pee lots too, I drink half a bottle of something and have to pee so bad about ten minutes later, but I can drink nearly a whole bottle of water and not have to pee for hours.

The invitations
Our invitations were kept secret from EVERYONE. My parents, sister, friends, everyone. So it was a complete surprise when they showed up in mailboxes. We are both graphic designers but wanted to truly splurge on our invitations. We knew a lot of our invite list wouldn’t be able to make it. With the combination of a destination wedding, our family scattered across the country and the economy, we wanted to give all of our invitees something special even if they can’t be there to share the day with us. This was our biggest expense vs. what we could have spent but I feel like it's worth it.
