ita !, I'm sure I've seen something very similar to the dress you described. Let me do some poking around the gothy fashion sites.
See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

He keeps saying that Obama's "demanding that we pay for someone else's birth control." I think the we = taxpayers but I don't know.
Well, I suppose in theory on Medicaid? But...cheaper than paying for anyone's pregnancy, which is why most insurance companies aren't really fighting this one.

ita, does it have to be one piece, or is two (sheath and blouse) ok?
(OK, dunno how you'd feel about the feathery fringey on the dress)

He could mean that we = people in the insurance pool. But that's how insurance works. We pay for (some of) other people's birth control, child birth medical expenses, lab work, diabetes treatment, broken bones, illnesses, accidents, and the wear and tear from living and aging. If we start narrowing it down by what every person involved approves of, only vegans that spend their entire lives alone on well-padded treadmills in the middle of a hermetically sealed living environment with filtered everything will qualify.

I'm not surprised that I'm having anxiety dreams about broken teeth, because I have so much work to do that I feel like I'm ignoring something critical no matter what I'm getting done.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's a gorgeous dress, Jilli, but I am looking for something that will cover my portacath, ergo the sheer blouse over. None of the ones meara linked to quite pinged it, but that's definitely the sort of thing that was in my head.
The red dress you linked to is lovely meara, but I'd get distracted trying to resolve matching the blouse with the fringe. I'm not sure how I'd make peace with that.
Good god, my head really hurts. Like, I really want to throw up right now. Ugh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

As a single person who has no regular healthcare expenses, I say: You're welcome!
