Book ,'Serenity'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I went out to dinner with friends and had ribs, yum. DH was getting over a stomach thing, so he stayed home.
And I just listened to the first in a special hiatus series for The Amelia Priject, which is another fiction podcast I love. I have fallen deep into the audio drama hole. It's awesome.
I'm back from Alembic where I ran into my friends Rowan and Sebastian.
Rowan's birthday is coming up this month and I've been invited:
At the stroke of midnight, as the Friday of SF Pride crests into a fever dream, our darling Rowan completes her third decade of mortal existence. This isn’t a birthday; it’s a coronation.
THE EVENT
We have seized The Alembic from 7 PM to Midnight, transforming it into a sanctum of excess with food and libations flowing like the River Styx. To ensure the vibes are sufficiently legendary, the illustrious Haus of Cream will descend upon us for a private, scintillating drag spectacle designed to bring the house down in Rowan’s honor.
THE THEME
On this auspicious night, we shall peel back the veil. The theme is Dark Fantasy - interpret it with maximum drama or don't bother showing up. We want you dressed like the protagonist of a story that’s probably banned in several states.
Be it a smoke-stained velvet 1920s occultist, a creature of the enchanted dark forest draped in diaphanous silks, or a bejeweled courtesan of a renaissance backstabbing drama, there is only one rule - Dress like the Main Character. If you aren't the most interesting person in the room, you're doing it wrong.
Dress like the Main Character. If you aren't the most interesting person in the room, you're doing it wrong.
I think that's a dress code whose challenge you are well equipped to meet.
