And yea, I have walked through the valley of the shadow of formalwear. I have seen the horror that is the baby blue tux, and the abomination that is the...the...Texan smocklike thing with the cowboy hat and little stringy tielike doodad. And I was afraid, yet I did press on, for how could I flee where a six-year-old fears not to tread

I think you misunderstood them. I think the rule was velvet.

Also, I still need to procure a suit and now will have to do it alone. ALONE. And in the final hour.

You can borrow Robby if you want. I'm sure he'd love to go again--he's been talking about it every since. I think he's going to grow up to be a big ole clotheshorse, or maybe a spy.

Or you could borrow Cathy...if you dare.

Really, though. If you want company, tell me. I wouldn't want anyone else to have to go through what I went through....(sob!). I bet it would be waaaaay easier to go there if I didn't have to try anything on.

I think you will look simply smashing in this. Or is it dashing? Probably both, actually.

Oh Blake, that's a splendid choice. I particularly admire grey for formal clothing, and I certainly don't care if it's meant to be worn for day rather than evening. You have excellent taste; one can tell you are a true artist.

You mean a bolo tie? but . . . . it's a classic . . . a very scary classic . . .

So is syphilis!

Sorry--still traumatized.

P.S. If you want to see what I'm wearing, sort of, I mean I'm definitely not going practically nude like the model, I posted a photo at Rad Ann's: http://www.livejournal.com/users/rad_ann/2661.html

That's gorgeous! Oh--Robby's here and he says I should tell you you're going to look like Atalanta, only you'll be smarter because you won't turn around to look for the apples. Suave little mofo, coming up with all the good lines.

No, I will NOT repeat what Cathy just said.
