A Cinderella Story
You're never too old to imagine your own Princess Diaries moment, right? And mine goes something a little like this:
[harpsichord dream sequence music plays]
First, there's a whirlwind romance with the dashing stranger who looks like a cross between Nathan Fillion and Kiefer Sutherland during his Three Musketeers days.
(Awww yeeeeah.)
Next, we sink straight into the Fire Swamp.
No, no, just kidding.
Next we play Mario Kart together until 2AM.
Later, after dressing up as Venkman and Staypuft for Halloween (I'm Venkman, of course), and confessing our undying love for one another, there's a painfully romantic proposal:
Performed in an inflatable kiddie pool.
"Jen," my dashing prince would say, "Will you be my own Princess Peach?"
To which I would respond, "Are you kidding? Do Vulcans need the Pon Farr?
"(But we are going to Disney for the honeymoon, right?)"
And, BAM! I'm a princess! Next thing you know, I'm living in a castle...
"And over here is your TARDIS closet. As you can see, it is much, MUCH bigger on the inside."
...and wearing pretty princess crowns...
(Modeled after crabby Space Invaders, apparently.)
...and pretty princess dresses...
("Talk about your trunk space, check this action out!")
...and riding my Princess Vespa around...
(Ok, technically this would be a Princess Harley.)
...and...and...wait. You know what? Other than the castle and crown stuff, I've already got my fairy tale ending, complete with video game playing, Princess Bride quoting, and brownie baking prince. (Love you, Sweetie.)
So I guess I'll just end here by wishing all of you:
I like the short and fluffy ones, myself.

P.S. I found something for the princess who wants to wear something old, something new, something borrowed, and something poo:
Unicorn Poop Earrings
Don't stop believing, y'all. Dreams do come true.
