'Never Leave Me'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
You're welcome!
ION -- Ahahahahahahahaaaaaaa!!! Chatty!co-worker just told me a story about his 7-year-old son: the son comes back from spending the night at a buddy's house, and the following conversation ensues:
Chatty: "Did you have fun, buddy?"
Son: "We played a ton of board games. And Jenga! That doesn't have a board."
Chatty: "What else did you play?"
Son: "Tommy and I played Nazi!"
[crickets]
[light bulb goes on]
Chatty: "I think you mean Yahtzee."
Mine too, Ginger. Did your guys go to RI, too? Also, the ones that didn't get run out then, ran off to Canada during the Revolution.
"the shoes clock in at an affordable $235," etc. I'm pretty sure I don't one single item of clothing (or footwear) that, all on its own, cost $100 or more.
I will happily drop over $100 on two types of clothing and not even think twice (provided I've assured myself that they are high-quality): running shoes and winter coats. The rest of my wardrobe tends to clock in at around $50 or less. Except for that Lip Service jacket I bought at Metro in Seattle. But that - that was.... I have no good excuse. But I looooooove it. So much.
Tep - BWAH!
One very good thing about being a goth girl is that one doesn't have to worry about fashionable. Therefore, one can cheerfully shop closeouts and bargain bins, because you're just going to be gothing the stuff up in the end, anyhow.
I will spend ungodly amounts of money on things made out of leather. NSM with the shoes, but jackets, coats and skirts drive me insane with lust.
Mine ended up in Rhode Island. Among other things, they signed the Bradbury petition asking that Elizabeth Bradbury not be hanged for witchcraft. This apparently did not sit well with the powers that be.

I was wondering about that, when I mentioned trendy upstream, because although some people dress/try to dress Goth to be trendy, it's really the anti-trendy, isn't it. It's timeless in a different way.
This was during my Search for the Holy Perfume Grail. I've given up on it, you'll be happy to know.
I found mine, and, unfortunatly, it's ungodly expensive. Mom got me a bottle one Christmas, and I ration it like crazy rather than using it and just enjoying it, because I'm not sure I can let myself refill it.
OK, I probably can, I just shouldn't.

I would spend lots of money, if I had it, on a leather jacket because I've wanted one forever.
Now if someone wanted to make me over with an iPod and a Blackberry...
I'd so love an office makeover. Get me some nice, efficient storage, more bookshelves, a better desk with room for more than just the monitor and one stack of documents beside it....
I think of myself as wearing "expensive" shoes and bras, but only because I'm so hard to fit in both that I can never get bargain stuff that doesn't pinch spots that shouldn't be pinched. My mother, she of the C-cup and uniformly narrow feet, was boggled that I expect to spend around $50 on a bra and at least $75 for ordinary shoes. Of course, I was a very casual dresser even before I was self-employed, so for everything else I can go cheapish. Though I'm starting to think vague thoughts about what kind of image I want to present once I'm published, and trying to shop in that direction when I'm getting ready for writers conferences and the like. I think it's going to involve antique jewelry or imitations thereof, and lots of deep reds. And it'd look better if I lost those pesky 40 lbs.
