Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

[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.

What is even happening?

Apparently, the surgeon was pleased with the samples they got, so that's good. I think she's encouraged.

This is good, vw. I'm so sorry there was the drama, though. The whole thing is dramatic enough on its own.

I have plenty of pictures of it in my new Flickr group for gig pictures. [link] I haven't had money to buy new clothes for a while so I still end up relying on this corset a lot to put together looks for gigs. Because I didn't want to be stuck with a corset that could *only* be a Wonder Woman corset, I made a false front (aegis) that snaps off. You can see it both ways there.

That's gorgeous, Spidra. Do you get hot performing in the coat you have on for some of those photos?

Others are waking up. Me? I've been a dumbo and stayed up nearly all night again.
Ooof. I've been there. I hope you break the cycle today, and can sleep tonight.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

That's gorgeous, Spidra.

Thanks. I got a real sense of accomplishment from that one. I tried to do something I wasn't sure I could do and I pulled through nicely. I look forward to making another corset someday. What I *really* want to learn to make is a corset with cups. Basically, a merry widow, I guess. I'd need to do that to make a Golden Age Wonder Woman outfit not to mention the Lilli Von Shtupp outfit I'm dying to make. (Actually, I looked closely and realized that even though I remember it having cups, it's just a more curved front. Not sure how the costumer did that although I think if I use the Laughing Moon pattern view with gores I can do it.)

I am very cold most of the time. But I did warm up part-way through that gig and doffed the coat. Sometimes the heat is from stage lights. Other times it's from nervousness.

This is very good to hear. How are you doing? I hardly ever get to post with the East Coast morning crew anymore! Oh and, Fay asked about paying for cookbooks over in the F2F thread.

For pretty much the reason Stephanie mentioned - I can't keep Mal away from the keyboard if he's awake and I'm on the computer. Not even if I set him on the shelf next to me: [link]

Spidra, that's a rocking corset!

Here's my day so far: [link] I should have photos up on Flickr today or tomorrow. I didn't take many as I didn't want to get firebombed.

My favorite quote from the article:

Ahead of the visit, anarchists claimed responsibility for planting several firebombs, burning cars but causing no injuries.

Which basically means it's Tuesday here. They've been making carbeques for months and months, why stop now?

How are you doing?

I'm hanging in there. Trying to do better.

{{{vw}}} Because.

Damn. I was going to, pathetically enough, download last night's 7th Heaven. But, the website is down. I'm all sad, which is just stupid.

Shhhh...don't tell anyone! I'm gonna get new shower curtains and wash the rugs in the bathroom. It'll be like a whole new clean room!

Our wings are not tired.

Fun. A new shower curtain really does make it a whole new room.

I'm coming back home to clean after I take the kid to school. Work will have to wait a bit. I'm too tired at night to do housework, but I can do office work anytime.

I LOVE washing our bathroom rugs. They come out of the dryer so clean and fluffy! It makes me unreasonably happy. (it's the little things)

Go vw! It's a gorgeous day today... so hopefully your errands today will be a little nicer with the sun on your face.

{{vw}} good luck with turning the bad vibes around. I know it's hard. But sometimes it helps a lot. To quote the Simpsons, "In with the love... out with the jive."

I have shown my paper twice already to people, not including Tom last night. And I made him look at it twice. The prof gave some good comments about organizing the paper, which is helpful, in case I ever want to re-purpose it or anything.

It's so nice outside!
