Yeah, I totally could rock steampunk. I think I should start paying more attention to my clothes. Not that I'll look any more socially acceptable, but I might have fun. I need to learn how to sew, though. And get a sewing machine. And save some money for fabric.

You know what, thrift shop fashion is working out okay for me, come to think of it.

Owen's ready for his own tiara.

He's such a handsome critter. Hard to believe he's such a poop spreader.

Juliana! I am indeed downtownish for the next couple weeks. We should convene and I should express my disapproval at the size of your motorcycle.

lib! Good but not entirely accurate guess. Here is your hint: it is the capital letter "L" on your dollar bill (if your dollar bill is of the "L" variety).

SFistas--"Foster City", where it be at relative to Teh Cool Stuff? Have a phone interview with a company there tomorrow.

Uhmmm... Teh Cool Stuff is definitely not right there, but it's drive-to-able. [link] commute from SF might be a pain -- neither BART nor Caltrain goes all the way there, and 101 South can be kind of toothgrindy -- but not impossible. And it looks doable from the East Bay as well (I don't really know that bridge well enough to say what it's like to commute across it, though).

Ah! Got it. Yeah, I would expect extraordinarily good security there.

I really need to start dressing more steampunk.

Anything more than just jeans and a t-shirt, which it seems is all my wardrobe is these days.

Yeah, I need to dress more steampunk.

I wonder what the higher ups here at the theatre would say to me wearing Steam Punk. Firstly, I'm too lazy to do the hair as was shown. So just a casual part on the side probably wouldn't look as cool in the Steam punk. Eh. I'm not known for my sense of fashion anyhow.

Laga - Being a Bad Nephew does not make you a Bad Person. I've been a Bad Aunt since 1987.

Ya, but that's Bad in a totally cool way, I'm sure ;-)

Border 2 is on! Only four more to go! [link] I'm liking it better and better each step of the way, which is kind of fun. May finish the top tomorrow. I hope, anyways...

A closer fit is better, especially when you're dealing with armor.

A poorly fitting gambeson is just a pain in the neck to fit under a breast plate, never mind getting the pauldrons on properly.

He's such a handsome critter. Hard to believe he's such a poop spreader.

Truer words were never spoken.

I'm hopelessly behind everywhere because I didn't bring my laptop on this trip and so am limited to the crackberry. Weekend family stuff was okay, all things considered, and now we're staying in a gorgeous B&B in San Diego right by Balboa Park. We walked to the zoo today! Was fun. Saw many cool animals including a Timber Wolf and his best friend, a Golden Retriever. Too cute.

Now flopped in bed contemplating the evening. We head home tomorrow. Nice to have time just the two of us. Okay, thumbs tired. Hope everyone is doing well. Smooches and glitter!
