I have found the best thrift store EVAR. Dude. One dollar equals one POUND of clothes! Linens, 50 cents a pound! I spent less than six bucks, and got most of a LARP costume. Schweet.

Now I just have to wait and see if the costume I've thrown together fits the character at all.

I was told a month ago that no, I can't ask off for this weekend, because there are only four managers, and someone else already asked off. Last night, I looked at the schedule, and found out that I got off Saturday anyway. I have to open Sunday morning, which will be a little grim, but at least I get my minimum LARP dosage for the month. Of course, the character I was originally assigned has been given to someone else. I could end up playing anyone.

I hope she likes pink, whoever she is. When you are unusually tall, and especially when you are shopping at the thrift store, if the one costume guideline you know is "floorlength skirt," a lot of options disappear fairly quickly.
