I shall PM it to you...because I am weird and find that more personal than anything else I said in that post! But thanks, for the first part. :)

That is totally awesome! And thanks for over-sharing--it's greatly underrated.
I used to hate gravity because it would not let me fly. Now I realize it is gravity that lets me stand.

Hopefully not obvious shout-out. Hard to read? Good!
Huh; zorro? What's zorro have to do with it?

But yes, well done. It is good to see the ponies are continuing to take over the library.

I was particularly dismayed this morning when a particular cat vomited completely all over my felt DS bag that a certain awesome P-Webber traded me (in an idea brokered by a certain other awesome P-Webber). I was seriously pissed off and depressed--until I realized that I could just wash it. I did. It's now dry and good as new: doesn't even smell like cat-food.

So, in other words, you make impervious things, Jan. And then Alea talks you into giving them to me.

You know I'm trying to go on the straight and narrow but they have ways of convincing me to stay. The life of a mobster is a complicated one. You wouldn't understand.

Spectacular.

Do you have some sexy black leggings to go along with it?

Nah. I'm just going with the half-way look. Since I don't have a full cowl, I think I'll just go with jeans.

Holy Carp. Both of you. These are awesome! If I was going to hand make my costume, I'd be going as "Tony, that guy from the internet." Since that's about the extent of my crafty abilities.

I had to look up Batgirl's costume to get how impressive that is but it definitely is cool!
