OMG! HILARIOUS! I *just* put together your LJ persona and your real life persona.

(Hey, at least I figured it out on FB!)
Sorry, I am clearly a bit slow. Nice meeting you too! *grin*
It sounds like we’re all brining additional hands for CoCo 2012 (to help spread all that party burden a bit more, I know *wink*) and I predict that the result is going to be something on the caliber of Earth Shattering when we’re all assembled with our gear in hand.
/checks packing list and confirms plenty of Fun Time toys to be included
The garment district prices have gone up in general…
Good information to have, and it all makes sense. I assumed it had to do with the general economy and some supply-and-demand chain action that I have seen effecting prices at most of my cheap-o shopping haunts (thrift stores, used book stores, etc.). I was raised by parents who went through the Depression, so I have always tended toward inexpensive second-hand goods; it seems like all those places have seen a bump in customers and have instituted a corresponding bump in prices.
*grumble*
Ah well, here’s hoping that America does what it does best and recovers from all this by becoming filthy rich, money spending slaves to marketing again. Not really, I actually like a more thrifty country, but maybe it would bring prices down at my favorite shops.
