Many Compliments

Thanks to the crashing good time I have been having today, I missed the pet competition at the fair. I was able to make the compliments duel between Col. Somme and Mr. Drinkwater, their seconds being Sir Hotspur and Sir Zen respectively. Wonderful words flowed between them, but the Colonel emerged the victor. What made it even sweeter was that his wife, Miss Christensen, told us all of their 17th anniversary today. I almost pulled out my handkerchief to dab my eyes. Congrats on both counts!Lady Heron and I somehow managed to dress alike...again. I do believe we are going to have to create a schedule or something. However, we consider this dress the unofficial uniform of our Compulsive Swooners club. Feel free to join if fashion, tight corsets, and handsome gentlemen make you do so. Speaking of handsome gentlemen, we could not help but whisper to each other about Maj. Margulis in one of my ensembles. Someone get the smelling salts...
And somehow...despite all of my crashing, I still managed to dance. Amazing how that works, no?

Miss Laval,
You compliment me too much. I just hoped I was not putting the artist to shame by draping my poor figure with her ensemble.

Your Obedient Servant

Sadly, I missed both the compliments duel, and the pet show, but I did catch the latter half of the "roller skating party", when it was in Kiralette's garden. Seymour is a blast! lol

I didn't realize I was dancing so close to Seymour until Mr. Mokeev was eaten! I could have been plant food!

And Major, I do believe Lady Heron will just need to have her smelling salts on hand...
