Yesterday afternoon I took myself to a clothier in downtown DC to get fitted for a bespoke suit. What this entailed was three hours of talking with two stylists and two tailors about fabric and fit and the length between buttons on my vest. The aesthetic I was going for was "1920s mob boss," and they all knew exactly what I was talking about and didn't try to steer me into more feminine fashions.

If you're wondering how much something like this costs, the answer is $1,750.

This is far and away the most expensive cosplay I've ever done, but I'm not entirely sure who I'm trying to cosplay as. An adult version of myself? Who is actually good at her job? And actually has this level of income?

I am so tired. I am so, so tired, all the time.
