rav3n and anhedonia_cmplx brought the GothNIX tshirt to my attention, but I really like the Cthulu Knotwork.


In fact, I think I need that Knotwork shirt. And the store is having a 15% off sale!

hrmmm...

Okay, went to the Dawning last night. Took a LOT of pictures.

Sadly, I didn't think to take any pictures of myself before I took my hair down. It was done up in what explodingcat calls "cartoon-octopus" style... two knobs on top of my head (braided and pinned coils) and six braids framing my face. i took the braids out before we got to the dawning, so it was just crimpy hair + coils.

Anyhow, last night, I wanted a silver skirt to wear. I don't have one, evidently, but I spied some wrinkled silver fabric.

So I made one. I don't have a good picture of it. But I just made it, shortened it, gave it a drawstring waist, and ta-da! I had a skirt I could poof out under my corset. Who needs a hem for goth night? Not me! I also worse a scoop-neck blouse and the usual tube top beneath (it keeps my nipples in check with the corset. and i wore my buckle-zipper mary janes.

I've been too tired (slept over 12 hours!) to edit piccies, but I have a couple up.

and I also have a picture of a certain man in a bra, for those who know him and want to see. i won't give it out to the whole world, though, as i'm not sure how much he'd appreciate that, seeing as how he was probably pretty inebriated.

i have other pictures. they'll eventually get edited. i think that i'll be more amenable to doing this stuff when i have broadband. i don't mind editing now, but uploading is a chore.

oh... and the peasant top... i had fun teasing TR with it. i made all suggestive, like i was going to flash them... then pulled it down and revealed .... my tank top. Stu accused me of cheating. woohoo!

i think i should try to sleep now. sleep is good.

Mmmmm, home from boy's class and charlottesville.

I made some Narli Bulion. It's very easy, bring un-chicken broth to a simmer, reduce some pomegranate juice over high heat, mix, serve with fresh mint, salt, pepper, and (i skipped this) pomegranate seeds. ashbet, let me know when you have pomegranates and juice again and i'll give you the recipe.

It's very savory/tart. Quite yummy. Boy likes it.
