Dress shopping was surprisingly fun.

Didn't really find anything though. Of the two dresses that everyone agreed were good - one was several more times what I was willing to spend, and upon a night of sleep and some thought - not really appropriate for what we're going for. (Less *wedding-y* and more *you're our family and friends, come goof off - oh, and by the way we're also getting married.* Or something like that. In short, *not* really formal.) The other, which was far more preferable, would take 12 to 15 weeks to get in ivory, and without a train.

*rolls eyes*

So, since I've got work later on this afternoon, I'm going to hit 4th Ave because I can. and also because i need to find something to wear to a wedding in two weeks.


Also - I'm *so* tempted to try Your Wardrobe Unlock'd it's disgusting. Alas, I lack time.

In honor of Saturday, I give you all this. (Not rooting for Big Brown, for several reasons.)

It's the 1973 Belmont. Secretariat, who honestly was one of the best horses of all time, in a race that still leaves me in awe.

If you're going to retire them young, I won't argue as much if they're this good. Eventually, I'll pick up the photo of that stretch run.

SUCCESS!!!
