A close friend of mine is getting married (again), and so I’ve been seizing my maid-ish duties by helping her find a dress. She was looking for cheap dresses, so after a couple of Google searches we landed on Grandgown.com, a site I’ve never heard of but is apparently the hub of cheap, tacky dresses made in every color (green! yellow! purple!).
One of my favorites was this snappy number…
…you know, for when you want to look your frumpiest (it’s also available in pink!).
There’s also this one…
…you know, for when you want to look like a 6-year-old’s version of what going to prom is like.
Friend: “This is a dress for psychopaths.”
Me: “Or mentally damaged individuals who never leave their house.”
Friend: “Yeah, and they’re marrying their cousin.”
I have nothing negative to say about this dress, but I’m weirded out by this picture because the model looks 12. “I’m a model!”
Speaking of models, my friend kept making fun of this model’s piss yellow hair, but I couldn’t stop staring at her teeth.
She’s missing a tooth! Don’t tell me casting missed that.
Friend: Hey, guys! I glued feathers to my bra!
I actually don’t have a problem with this dress. Vegas strippers need love too.

Yep, it’s Wednesday.
By the way, I finally found a purpose for my other Tumblr, which will basically be used for images/unoriginal crap/reblogs, etc. Long-ish articles, music and other original stuff will remain here. My ongoing transfer from Startlogic to Hostgator is still in process. Parts of the site (mostly images, mp3s) are down because Wordpress MU decided to stop working.

![The Incredibly Shrinking Woman: This photo series, called “Changing Room,” shows a woman documenting her 160 pound weight loss, one pound at a time. The pictures were taken throughout 2010 and 2011 at various dressing rooms. “Even though these images were taken years ago, when I look back at them, I become extremely emotional,” she tells NPR. “I can still remember the experience presented in each image. I recall the thrills of trying on smaller sizes and the satisfaction of feeling more attractive, even sexy. More so, I remember the devastation of not recognizing the person reflected back to me in the mirror.” [NPR, “The Picture Show”]](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mav55cTs2z1qzxdqvo1_250.gif)

Coffee Ring Art of the Day: Hong “Red” Yi has already proven herself adept at creating spot-on portraits with nothing but a basketball and some paint, so it’s no surprise that she’s just as handy with coffee-cup rings.
Wow, I must have a hyperactive imagination because on first glance I thought this was made out of pubic hair.

I can finally read the books I was too embarrassed to read on the subway. Subway riders are intimidating. I always feel like I have to read a Murakami novel to fit in. But now I can read The Hunger Games without judgement. (It’s actually not too bad.)
