Anya ,'Storyteller'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
What I did Friday night:
Alex, I'll take "Knot taught in Scouts" for 400, please. Very neat, Teppy. Was that as much painstaking work as I think it was?
Poor Seska, I'm sorry that your dissertation is being such a... a... dissertation. Dissertations, right up there with polar bears.
That's super cool, Tep.
rope corset, front; rope corset, back, rope gauntlet.
And they say macrame's not cool.
Very neat, Teppy. Was that as much painstaking work as I think it was?
The only painstaking part was weaving the skinny white rope into the inverted V shapes on the front of the corset. The rest of it is REALLY easy and fairly quick. You just make a larkshead, loop the rope through the larkshead, wrap the rope around the arm (or torso), and go back and forth with it. The gauntlet and the corset are done exactly the same way -- just different locations.
(The top part of the corset -- the part that goes around the neck and across the chest -- isn't actually part of a rope corset; it's a different thing, and most rope corsets are made without it. The bottom part of the corset -- the part that went down in front of the general pants-zipper area -- is ALSO not part of a rope corset; I just had leftover rope and wanted to do something decorative with it.)
That is really cool, Teppy.
How are you feeling today, Anne?
Great job, Teppy!
I'm more overall achy today than yesterday. Judging from the bruises on my knees, I hit the floor a lot harder than I thought, and I started to feel it this morning. What's really worrying is that I've had a few more bouts of near-lightheadedness when I start doing things too quickly. I'm giving my doctor a call tomorrow.
It's not quite Wake Up With Hugh Laurie, but how about a little Fry In The Afternoon?
That's Twilliant.
