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!
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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

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.

Steal away. I think you'd look awesome like that.

I may very well...
I love the idea of post-apocalypse fashion (quite like Jilli likes the steampunk, say), but it doesn't condense well. Also, well, Aunty Entity was just last year. It should maybe wait.
Oh!
If I were really dedicated, I'd go as Grace Jones or one of her characters. That'd totally freak people out if I grew out the blonde and got a box cut for the occasion...
