you've got to remember that Phoebe is..hmmm a bit on the crazy side :P she might mean that she will look like herself but a bit blue (due to cold) :D lol i Know it's a stupid explanation but it's all i can think of. _________________ obsequium amicos, veritas odium parit |

| In a wedding, one of the bride's items have to be Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue. Phoebe will be cold as its snowing outside. So "I'll be my 'something blue'" means that for her wedding, she is going to be blue herself (due to cold) |

An excellent explanation, Kutekrish. I would only add that the 'something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue', whilst traditional and widespread, is not actually compulsory. It's an old verse and the purpose of following the advice to have each of those things is for good luck. _________________ Cheers m' dears! |
