Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.
When I went last year, the guy dressed as Scrooge made of point of telling all the kids that he was the good Scrooge from the end of the book who loves Christmas. That just takes all the fun out of playing that character.

There are several events that say "Victorian outfits encouraged but not required."

You're right. That does suck all the fun out of it.
One of these years I'll be able to get to SF for Dickens Faire. And Maker Fair, and the Edwardian Ball, and and and ...
Hi everyone! Long time ...
Emeline got her ears pierced yesterday. I have a great big girl. She turns SEVEN on Wednesday. How the hell did that happen?
I'm sorry for your loss, askye.
I've been coughing for close to two months now. I got my doctor to give me a referral to a pulmonary doctor, because this is getting ridiculous. I'm getting slightly better, in that, a few weeks ago, I couldn't sing along to the radio at all, and now I'm measuring how well I'm doing by how many lines of a song I can get through before I start coughing. (My record so far is three.)
Oo Dickens Faire would be fun.
Another five weeks of IV antibiotics for my grandmother, which means five more weeks of the hospital. She's going to have a cow once she's coherent enough to understand it.
Hil, good grief. That is scary stuff. I hope the pulmonary specialist can figure things out and fix you up.
Dana, that bites.
Good lord, I'm tired.
