Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers  

[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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

In other stylishly gothy events, The Edwardian Ball is coming up soon (1/27). This year's featured Gorey is Fletcher and Zenobia. The Saturday show is already sold out, so they've added a Sunday show. It's definitely become one of the events of the year.

I will baby-sit if you and JZ want to go. I know JZ enjoys it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Awww, thanks, Juliana. She would enjoy it if we ever went. Probably not this year - there's too much going on right now to relax and enjoy it.

But check out Hannah Fury's Absinthe Girls jewelry.

sigh One of these years, I'll manage to attend that.

IO memememe N: The next time I kick up a fuss about having nothing to wear*, someone tell me to go re-organize my closets. I just got done doing that, and wow. I think my black frilly skirts and my black velvety jackets are breeding. Not that I mind, but I don't remember having quite THAT many of them. **

*Unless I'm talking about needing a Gother Than Thou showstopper outfit. I've shrunk out of all of mine (yay!), and haven't found good replacements yet.

**If you listen very closely, you can hear Pete snickering at me.

You know the old trope "You must pay the rent!" "I can't pay the rent!"? I'm experiencing it right now with schoolwork: "You must grade the papers!" "I can't grade the papers!" Now I just need a dashing young man to burst into my room and cry, "I'LL grade the papers!"

Any volunteers? No? Bueller?

Her puppet jewelry is also very cool.

Something in pink and black, I hope.

I hope so, too. I'm waiting to hear back from my One True Seamstress about if she has the time to make me a black-with-pink-trim Polonaise.

Hrm. You sure? Well, the offer's open, because I know I won't get off my ass and go this year.

Jilli, I need you to come down and go through my closet with me, and then we can go shopping!

Oh, that would be SO MUCH FUN.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Yay! Math watch-n-post!

We are such geeks.
