Material Girl

I want a lot of things.  Intangible things like love and happiness, definitely, but also material goods that I can hypothetically* obtain immediately. Together, and perhaps even separately, the items are prohibitively expensive, but I've decided to reward myself with one (or two) for being alive and not living in a box ~1.5 years out of college. Which will they be? I haven't decided yet, but I will say that two are pure lust and will have to wait for a time of greater life stability. On to the the droolfest! 1. Audio Recorder

Red Spandex Suit: A History

This Halloween, I had no plans for a costume and then Laura handed me her red spandex suit. It didn't take much effort from there. halloween2010

This is not the first time red spandex suit has been the centerpiece of an outfit. See Laura (spandex suit owner) in her Mrs. Incredible costume, pulled together in a hurry last year.

And before that, see Laura in her superhero costume -- also pulled together in about an hour -- when our Senior year house rallied to attend a superhero-themed Senior Disorientation event.

Last but not least, the suit made another appearance for 80's Night at the Tombs during Senior Dis-O. Claire was too bashful to show some more spandex, but she did it proud.

Who will wear red spandex suit next? And for what occasion?
