So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hee! Of course, I know of at least two guys in the local Goth scene that still wear 80s suits with bolero jackets, but it works on them.

I'm sure it does. For them. This guy was just a tool all the way around. I mean, he bought a new style of clothes for a blind date! (The 'funny story' was about how long it took him to get dressed after their first activity.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I know I've seen ones with silver hardware. Check the info, because they may offer to change hardware to suit your needs.

The hardware's fine. But the lace used for the prettiest of the belts is red/gold or black/gold.

Still, I have some fuel for poking around eBay. You and Betsy are annoying like that.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

The red brocade belt is making me whimper with longing. Curse this budget that makes it impossible for me to justify spending almost $50 on a belt!

(Actually, come to think of it, I don't think I've ever spent more than $20 on a belt, and that one had a handmade pewter faux-medieval sun belt buckle and was exactly $20 and was severely marked down or I'd never have looked at it. Maybe I'm not budgeting, maybe I'm just cheap.)

There's a belt I really want that costs $80. They don't have it in my size, though. So I don't have to confront my willingness to spend that much on such a small item (it's a metal chain belt with enameled flowers for part of it--it's very pretty).

Thrifty.

Dept. of totally random: This morning my boss saw a teenage patient who had lots of piercings all over his face and one on his back. I'm completely mystified, and afraid to image Google. Where exactly does one pierce one's back? On purpose?

I prefer to think of it as helpful. Or enabling.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Where on earth does one pierce one's back? On purpose?

Was the kid paralysed?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Where exactly does one pierce one's back?

I can't picture it -- backs are too flat to pierce! (Also, how do you lie down without it poking you? Wouldn't that be incredibly annoying to sleep with?)

[eta: And um, Google Imaging this is not worksafe. As I now know.]

You can pierce any flesh, really.
