I need to be tape measured for a shirt

I have a custom-designed shirt by a Steampunk designer for a very Victorian event at the end of October, however, I honestly, sincerely, sorry to disgust the entire Steampunk community with this one, but I have to be honest, have never operated a tape measure a day in my life, and I'm supposed to provide measurements for my custom shirt. I have no idea what to do; I'm helpless as a dandy kitten. Please someone, can someone in the DC area measure me for a shirt? I need it done ASAP.

Thanks

Netherlands Steampunk Dragon Show

Awesome Steampunk Dragon Show Link

Crazy right?  Why don't we see more of this stuff stateside?  There's gotta be some group of people doing an interesting steampunk show in the US.  Something like Arc Attack perhaps?

A Stroll in the Garden: A [info]those_who_mourn Event

It is the summertime. The time has come for us to escape the stifling heat of the cities, not to mention the choking fumes of the Industrial Revolution..

To the country! To the GARDEN!

But since we're only that rich in our fantasies, we'll have to escape locally.. and locally shall we do so, at the US Botanic Garden in Washington, DC! http://www.usgb.gov/

Spreading the word

It's a bit far to drive for DC area folks, but I figure there might be a few who'd be interested in this event.
