slutty something is NOT a costume. I hate that.
SUMI!!THANK YOU!!! saving for later tonight.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Sexy is forbidden here, what with the children's ward and all. A couple of years ago I stole someone's idea with a poufy-skirted cocktail dress, pearls, a tiara, and a sash that said Miss Information, and had considerable stupid fun at work.
"Is Doctor S in?"
"No, I'm sorry, he's off today for the opening of wabbit season."
"Do you have the clinic report on Bobby R?"
"No, I'm sorry, Doctor S ate it."
"Is Doctor K here?"
"Yes, but he's hiding under his desk. Students frighten him."
Profoundly unsexy, but fun.
The coolest unsexy costume I ever saw here was the department administrative head about five years ago, who came in dressed in a black suit, red tie and bowler hat with a leafy, twiggy green apple mask hanging down from the brim of the hat.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Ha! I win at life. I made raincheck plans with someone tonight who invariably cancels at the last minute, and proceeded to make backup plans with someone else. So of course my friend cancels, but I still have plans!

Not very many people dress up here at the EE, which is sad. This year, I'm either dressing up as a Victorian lady adventuress back from Mars (if Pete manages to do the re-paint job on my toy ray gun, that is), or I'm falling back on my standby and dressing up as a Victorian vampiress.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday lori!
Happy Anniversary to Plei and DH!
If I have offended anyone here by my words or actions,accidentally or deliberately, I ask your forgiveness.
(I'm sorry that my words are but a poor echo of Nilly's, but I hope the sentiment came across ok.)

Hey, what do you call the part of a combination lock or padlock that is the U-shaped bar?
Nebbermind, Wikipedia solved it: it's the shackle. Duh.

A friend of mine and I used to joke about going as the Sun.
I went through a period of having these conceptual costumes. I went in consectutive years as The sky (lots of blue tie-dye and huge cotton clouds in my hair), the ocean (the same tie-dye with fish and shells), darkness (all black), autumn ( a red silk toga with real and painted leaves) .

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I want to dress as a can-can girl (a la Moulin Rouge), but a) everyone's already kinda seen it so to top it (and make it more authentic) I'd b) have to spend a lot of money. Which I don't have. Grump.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dude, juliana. I want to steal your idea.
Hmm. Maybe something with my corset, even if I don't commit theft of intellectual property...
Fairy tales or comics, that's how this will come down, I think.
Suddenly the idea of going as Snow White is cracking me up, but I'll get over that soon enough.
