I own roughly eight gazillion slips, which are good for wearing under lace dresses. Most of them are black cotton and trimmed with lace.

OMG, I am a complete doofus and forgot to wish Deena a happy birthday yesterday. Happy (belated) Birthday, Deena!!

I have a slip that I wear under skirts that are kind of sheer, like the currently-favored broomstick-hippie-flowy skirts. And, in fact, both the slip and the skirt are in my suitcase in the other room.

And here I sit, posting from Vermont, where it is very very pretty and very very hot. My Dad isn't driving me *too* crazy yet, though he keeps telling me how to drive, yet he refuses to drive. He's very good-natured, though, and when I give him a dirty look for telling me not to drive in the left lane, he just chuckles and says, "I know, if I don't like it, I can drive."

Insisting that we get a hotel suite instead of a room is the best decision I've made in a long time. Hello, healthy boundaries!

We flew in yesterday, Wednesday, otherwise known as New Comics Day. I need my comics. I'm twitching like a junkie.

My bro and almost-SiL look GREAT. I am so thrilled to see them. I also got to see his restaurant, finally, and it's supah-dupah cool, which Trudy, Nora, and Tom can attest to. We're having dinner there tonight. Can't wait.

And now Dad and I are killing time before dinner, since he doesn't want to go do any sightseeing. Good thing I brought a book.

And here's one photo of my bro to entertain you: [link]

Thank you, Jilli!

I just went and spent all the money from a little freelance job I did and called it my birthday present to myself. I bought the stuff to make the tiara (red czech glass beads, natural tumbled crystals, gold beads, gold wire, pliers and such) some new art pencils, and a really pretty box to put all my art supplies in. It was much fun.

ita, thanks for the happy birthday wish last night. It was the first thing I saw this morning and started my day just right.

STEPH!

That's all.

Oh, wait, it's not-- EAT IT !

Helloooooooo Tep!

Love the bass pic.

Ooooh, good plan.

Jilli, do you remember where most of the people for that Goth Con you went to in Vegas stayed?

The main hotel was the Flamingo. Pete & I stayed "next door" at the Barbary Coast.
