    Yaga - I think I am going to have the waist raised.  I'm, like, 80% sure, but I'm not going to decide 100% until I see it on me in the correct size.  I'm a little worried that I won't have enough extra length to both raise the waist and be able to wear heels on the wedding day.  Keep your fingers crossed.

    Aud - I showed pics when I first picked it out, back in September.  Here's the thread:

    <div>I think I'll probably be waiting until March or so to do alterations, so now I just need to try it on, pay the balance, and then take it home with me since they don't want to store it in the shop.</div><div>
    </div><div>Sucks that they want me to come in "immediately", though, since we were kind of putting every spare penny toward our ski trip.</div><div>
    </div><div>ETA:  I just emailed my mom to see if she wants to come with me to pick it up.  A couple months ago, she said she wanted to.  I feel like she's probably changed her mind by now.  Now I'm just bracing myself for disappointment.</div>

    When are you going to pick it up? :)

    And is the sash going to have a bow in the back anymore? I liked the bow....but I'm a sucker for those kinda things.

    Liv - quickish, I guess. Just a little over two months, so not bad at all. I'll definitely get more pictures! Lunar - I'm not sure. Soon, though!

    Thanks Tiger! You're sweet. And Lunar, I just realized I missed your question about the sash. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that, yet. I have several different ideas, so I'm just going to play around some. I do like the bow, though.

    Lovely dress, and wow they got it in fast! (Unless my sense of time is way off...) I like how the waist is now, but that's similar to the waist on my dress, so I guess I'm biased. ;)

    I do like the silhouette it has already, but I'm just not sure I like it on myself. I have a long torso and short legs, and I feel like the low waist just accentuates that.

    </div><div>Awww, thanks RDR.  I wish you lived closer, too!</div><div>
    </div><div>Because my mom emailed me back and said that there's no way she can take a day off work right now, and she won't have a free weekend until the 17th.  I <em>knew</em> she was going to find some reason not to come, but it still bums me out.  Especially after I significantly altered some of my own plans so that I could spend 8 hours with her helping her look for her MoB dress.  And especially because she has a cushy government job and has, like, a million unused vacation days.  And especially because this whole freaking wedding is turning into the Elle'sMomShow.</div><div>
    </div><div>Vent over, sorry about that.</div><div>

    <div>Honestly, I think she's just excited and has the wrong idea of how to harness and express that excitement.  At least, that's what I'm telling myself, because the alternative is that she's just selfish and I don't want to believe that.</div><div>
    </div><div>I tried telling her how she was making me feel, but she got really defensive and said some really hurtful things, so now I just keep my mouth shut.  I don't want to go through another fight like that.</div>

    If you don't shut up about how inadequate you are in terms of your torso and legs, the first thing I'm going to do when I see you is punch you in the babymaker.

    You're gorgeous.  That dress is amazing.  Now STFU.
