Thinking that my response to this didn't really belong in the discussion about modest women's clothing, I decided to make my own thread.
quote:And, speaking of clothing, when is Christy coming down here for our lingere shopping trip?!
*laugh* First CT and now you too, Anna?! I call we should have a Hatrack ladies overnight where we all go out slinky lengerie shopping and give each other manicures and pedicures and generally pamper ourselves.
So, who's for it? I'd offer my house, although we'd have to send Tom off somewhere.

I think Tom should put his foot down and demand that he be allow to wear lingerie with the rest of you.

We could just suggest that the Hatrack men get together and roleplay That just might keep them from our windows.

Nah, even complete nerds would rather look at hot women in lingerie than roleplay with each other.

When I first read the topic I thought it was some sort of take-off on the Mail Order Bride thing.

No, no, no. For the hatrack males you need to set up a webcam and broadcast the evening. Get the geek memes straight, please.

You know, I have to say, if there were pictures of Tom in lingere on foobonic, I'd probably look at them. It isn't something I'm be turned on by, but there would be a certain level of morbid curiosity that would drive me to click on the link. Can any of you honestly tell me that the same thing wouldn't be true of you?
We could test it by creating a thead that contained a link to a pic on foobonic that we *claimed* was a picture of Tom in lingere. I'll bet that that picture's "# of times viewed" count would be through the roof in no time.

Ya'll are always welcome at my place. I think everybody is ok with dogs, and we have the advantage of having awesome shopping (even if it is only window shopping) within minutes (we are 10 minutes away from Woodfield) without fighting downtown Chicago traffic. I can kick Steve out for the night, he's been wanting to do an all-weekend roleplay with some friends down here anyway.
Though I suspect that if he and Tom actually got their heads together they would consider crashing the party. I don't have pictures but Steve has admitted to going to a showing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show in, er, costume. From the information I've gleaned I believe fishnet stockings were involved. Oh man, I would kill for those pictures!

I hope there's one scheduled for November/December.
Narnia, Ralphie? Is Annie going to be around on a certain date, so we can nail this thing down? I have to get it on the calender early to make sure I can be there too.

Hey, wait! I think other people have taken over our planning thread!
That's okay, as long as we don't get all mixed up.
Just a note - I'd really prefer the WI/IL/whoever else one not be the first weekend in October, as that is my anniversary and I would have to choose my husband over the girls. And, uh...I have to work the last two Saturdays of October. I think that's it!

I had a sleepover for my 30th birthday party. It was great fun. I cannot promise my attendance, but if it's within a weekend's driving distance from Kokomo, I'll definitely consider it!

I have never been a girly girl. I don't wear makeup, detest nail polish, and "fixing my hair" means blow-drying it upside down.
I do, however, love to chat and giggle, both of which occur at sleepovers. In other words, count me in. My schedule's pretty open as of right now.

So, how about Friday October 10 through Saturday afternoon That should be fine with me. Do we want to have it at Anna's or at our place? I don't mind either way. The only fear I have about Anna's is that CT and I are single car families and it might take a bit more arranging on our end. (If CT is free) But Anna might be in the same boat. Do you share that hot little Spyder with Steve? I would love to see your new house, though!

Noemon, she's doing well. Still trying to figure everything out with the cardiologist, but we're keeping a good eye on her.

Good to know. I've been wanting to check in on her, but at the same time I haven't wanted to bother her.

October 11th is cool for me, and is in fact my last open weekend for a while, since the next weekend I'm going to Michigan for a dog show.
You are welcome at our place, but whichever works out for everyone the best is fine with me. I have my own car, the white mini-van, and unfortunatly am unable to drive the Spyder because it is a stick shift, and I'm not very good at it and would be afraid to do it without Steve in the car.
For people with back problems, we have this awesome air mattress that I've slept on consecutively for 5 days with no difficulties. We have lots and lots of space, though most of it is covered by orange carpet.
An advantage of not kicking Steve out,though relegating him to the bedroom, would be that we could probably talk him into cooking because he likes to show off his cooking skills, and whatever he cooks is excellent.

Jenny according to mapquest it would be a 4 hour drive for you, from Kokomo, IN to Rolling Meadows, IL so I don't know if that is doable or not. And that isn't counting Friday Chicago traffic, so I'd probably allow 5 hours or go through before or after rush-hour. Going home on Saturday wouldn't be bad though so that would be a pretty easy 4 hours.

I'm so jealous! I ALMOST got to go to Jenny Gardener's sleepover b-day party (no frequent-flyer tickets available at last minute) and now this. I wish I still lived in Chicagoland. *pouts*

If you are really serious you might be able to find a $79 flight on Southwest into Chicago Midway. But that would only work if we are actually having it at my place. I live really close to O-hare but the flights are almost always more expensive there.

I'll try to talk to CT tonight and see what she thinks. I don't think she's really been checking Hatrack and she's been pretty incommunicado by email, too. I mentioned it to her yesterday and she ws interested, but her stipulations were no cameras and no boys. *giggle*
Edit: Also, my place adds 2 hours or so to that drive, Jenny.

Can I bring a camera if I promise not to take any (unauthorized) pictures of CT (or anyone else)?
