My home decorating scheme is: Shit Other People Gave Me.
My wardrobe theme is: Things That Hide As Much Of Me As Possible.
Combined, they denote zero money for decorating, and a lot of junk in the trunk.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Think how much fun you could have at the reveal when you scrapped their choices in favor of a candy-colored Alias wig and all-black Emma peel wear.
If there's natural haircolor under that wig, I'm not interested.
As for the Emma Peel costume, well, first I need an Emma Peel body

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
She advises looking at your wardrobe and then looking at how you decorate your home as an indicator of personal style.
Black and more black, with an occasional red, grey or purple. Favoritism shown to stretchy materials. I'm starting to have a weakness toward Chinese silk brocade in any color, preferably vintage pieces. Accessories are either silver or dark metal, with onyx or marcasite being the preferred stones.
Home colors are grey, oxblood red, and "natural", with dark woods being preferred, and a lot of Asian styles/influences.

I take it hating 80s night went well?
That's awesome. And a little frightening.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
but that's what I want to do with all of my friends.
See now, for a minute there, I thought I was special.
I would like to visit Seattle, though. That's for sure.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I wear makeup daily and rarely go out without it. My features seem very plain to me otherwise. But it sounds like few of us do. Who else does?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Some people dress in ways that blend, which acts as inner life camo.
God, yes. The idea of wearing my insides on my outside all the time gives me the screaming heebie jeebies like you would not believe. I was so much happier once I learned how to dress to blend.

You are, because you're on the list of people I'm trying to figure out how to get to move here. Silly woman.

That's exactly how Hate the 80s went! Actually kind of a LOT frightening. But super fun. Also, John Waters was there. But I don't think he stayed for our performance.
I dread somebody looking at how my house is "decorated" and determining anything about me that way. Mostly it says "Lazy about doing house things. Scared of Home Depot."
