Went in to get my dress alterations marked today.

Thanks to the fact that the dress is two sizes too big, my alterations are $75.  For those of you keeping track at home, this brings my dress total to about from about $110 to $185.

That. dress. is. not. worth. that. much. MONEY!

It pisses me off so much.

There was another dress that I actually liked that was the right size that I decided not to get because it was $225.  I think that for a forty dollar difference, I should have gotten the one I would have liked.

I got the $99 dress [$110 with tax] because they told me alterations would probably be around $40.  Still much cheaper than the dress I liked.  So, for the sake of thriftiness, I went with the cheaper, uglier dress.

Words cannot express how frustrated I am.  The sooner Military Ball is here and over with and the sooner I can sell that dress to a thrift store for $10, the better.  Don't get me wrong, I hope Military Ball is crazy fun, I just can't wait to forget about that damn dress.
