No, -t but if she rewears it for Halloween there will be blood! ltc wasn’t allowed to write her first choice for a scary Halloween story for school this past year because her teacher thought it was too scary for the other kids. My kid will scream like she is dying if she sees a bug, freak out about a cold and shrug off horror content like it is nothing.
I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Horror usually freaks me out, but I guess I've watched a few graphic thrillers and true crime. Small world with the Anthony thing, though I guess she is a foremother.

I'm kind of a chicken with horror myself, but that's awesome

So the thred up stuff fits. Is it even close to being an authentic period outfit? No. But the wig and guilotine necklace that I got for her will get the point across. And the outfit is more weather appropriate for the unseasonably hot weather we’re having. I’ll post pictures on the FB page when she is wearing the whole costume.

EXCELLENT
I thought you would appreciate that. TCG and I just looked at each other and said, “and so it begins”.

The dress code for the Vampire Lestat concert & afterparty tonight is "rock chic" which I'll just assume was meant to say "glam punk" and which I will do my best to achieve as a person who does not even own eyeliner. (The feeling of anything on my face that isn't an ultralight moisturizer makes my skin crawl and so makeup is a complete no-go and always has been.)

That sounds like fun, Jess! I’m sure you look fabulous.
ltc has to wear her costume again today to present in front of the other classes. She’s unhappy because the wig is itchy.
