So, my roommate from last year, who I'm living with again this fall, and I have a running joke that her room is like officer's quarters. Seriously, you should have seen it last year-there was a world map, and a vintage Army helmet, and boots, and peacoat, and a stuffed pheasant (no, really; we call him Conrad); the works. Anyway, I teased her about it all last year, and for her birthday got her a vintage pinup girl poster. This one.

Classy, no?
Anyway, I'm doing it again this year, and she wants a brunette. I haven't come to a final decision, but I'm leaning towards this one.

The other possibility is this one.

Something about the second one bothers me though. aliaras has been nicely analyzing the arty bits for me, and why they don't really work, and I agree with her...it's just that my roommate would *really* like the dress she's wearing...
Ironically enough, she's the *straight* one.
However, I plan to be mailing her pinup girls on her birthday for the rest of her natural life...which will be fun for her to explain to people... XD
