It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Supposably there's a big storm a'coming to town this weekend. I'm closing all the windows and laying in supplies!

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

Do you have enough weapons? And in case your food runs out, do you have a copy of To Serve Man?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

That was my favorite Halloween costume ever--I wore a chef's apron and hat, and I carried a cookbook with a mocked-up dustjacket which read To Serve Man. I wore it to the bookstore to work my shift, and since I couldn't carry the book around while working, it was just assumed I was a chef. Oh, well, at least the boss thought it was funny when I came into the store to work.

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

Well, I've done as much construction of Aunty Entity's dress as I can before taping myself into it tomorrow. I feel dissatisfied with the shoulder thingies, but I'm going to try not to obsess.

Going through my provocateuse mail backlog (huge, I've been bad), and I found some from a woman who's a huge fan of Vikas Khanna (of whom I'd never heard) and managed to convince his camp to have him take some barefoot pictures for my site. She's such a happy fangirl right now.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

This cold can go away any time now.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Crazy Vincent used a lot of staples and glue in the contruction of his "couture-like" garment.

Hee! Good to know that my last-ditch "Must finish the alterations so I can wear this to the club tonight" efforts are used by "professionals".

ita, if you decide to glue any bits of your costume, be warned: some glues (like the ones for hot glue guns) glow under black light. Which can be a cool look, but only if you have a very steady hand when you apply the glue.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I do not want to know how an office of 18 can have more than 3 departments.

Everything about this is bad.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

My office has 18 people (20 if you count the part-timers), and we have 4 departments. Actually, 5 if you separate Finances from HR.

Oh dear. The craziness is catching up, I guess?

It's cold and rainy here. I hate driving at twilight in the rain. Road and sky are pretty much indistinguishable, and the contrast everywhere else is very low. It's a pretty and interesting asthetic, but it royally sucks to drive in.
