Unhappiness is: being the last in a group to respond via e-mail bitching about something, and having your e-mail quoted by the target of said bitching in a retaliatory statement calling you and your ilk "unprofessional" and "disrespectful."
In other words: they know you're right, but certainly can't admit it. Further unhappiness: experiencing that searing flush of anger in response, fingers twitching to reply something snarky, and knowing that if you do, it's not YOU who will pay for it, but your child. Damn. Sometimes I really hate this town. |

Tomorrow's forecast.
Today was 38.9. Tomorrow will be 43 with late thunder. WTF? An extreme heat watch has been issued. Bushfire alerts are all severe, extreme, or catastrophic. The UV forecast is extreme. Even the bloody pollen forecast is extreme. A severe thunderstorm warning has just been issued for some areas for tonight. "...and the forecast is for biblical weather, with diabolical early, and a chance of wrath-of-god later. Showers of toads may be expected in mountain areas..."

women wearing prom gowns, wedding dresses, and other formals who raise their skirts for ease of movement with two-handed fistfuls. All dressed up and elegant -- with all the grace of a cow in a petticoat.
Delicately lift from the center of the gown with ONE hand! You're not stomping grapes, ladies!

So, it's preferable for the large raised gap in the dress to be at the crotch, rather than one smaller one at each side?

well, no. there shouldn't be a large raised gap at all. You pull out, and slightly up, in order to allow room for your foot to advance. Kick your foot out if your dress is long and heavy. This also leaves a hand free for shaking hands, your purse, etc.
Learned this at my high school graduation.

They taught you wrong, and you're out of date. One hand, yes, but from the side. ....Or just be realistic admit the damn thing is impeding your movement and pick it the fuck up. It's more about not caring/rebelling than not knowing, at least in my case anyway.

Is it okay if the dress in question is one of those giant-skirted wedding dresses, where the weight of the dress is literally too cumbersome to adjust with just one hand, and you're going up stairs and need to at least sort of see your feet?

It doesn't matter. They all end up on the floor eventually.
