Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

'Touched'


F2F5: I forget that everyone isn't us

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I lied! There I am! (Whew, not invisible.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

That's the prettiest picnic I ever saw.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Looking at the pics (okay, not just upon looking at the pics) I so wanted to be there.

And then I so wanted to be dressed enough to be there.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Yeah, after my initial "Oooo, I wish I could have been there!" reaction came the realization that I would have stuck out like a sore thumb in my cargo shorts and John Henry rayon shirts.

Looks like you actually had a nice day for that. That's been something of rare comodity in the northeast this "summer".

I noted with much irony that when I got back from the F2F that I instantly missed the Seattle weather.

Uhm, Jilli, I don't mind you using my photo on the Lip Service site, but you should really give me credit, and/or a link back to the photo's Flickr page.

Oh argh! I'll ask the LS webzine munchkin to do that. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Tom. I meant to include your name with the photo when I selected it and sent it to Jilli, but the whirl of multi-tasking we're ging through caused me to forget it. We will try to have that fixed as soon as possible.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Jilli, you might be my savior. The bit in the LS piece about wearing an ice pack under your corset -- BRILLIANT! I get excessively hot and sweaty in situations/locations where everyone else is cool as a cucumber; this is exacerbated, of course, by wearing a corset. Particularly a PVC corset.

I *so* can't wait to try this!

It works like a DREAM. I am taking ice packs to SDCC with me, because while the convention center is air conditioned, having an ice pack wouldn't hurt.
