A random, but very heartfelt post

Thank you, cupcakegothmom, for entrusting me with your Elna sewing machine.

Thank you, Infamous BlueJay, for getting me the automatic buttonhole attachment.

(I'm almost done with the alterations to a blazer that didn't quite fit. One pot of pink dye, a seam ripper, two lengths of D-ring tape, some ribbon, and nine buttons later, and it will look fantastic.)

(Oh argh, I have to iron the dratted thing. Hmmph.)

Stamp my Goth cliche card now, please.

I am watching Coppola's Dracula, while meticulously shredding a pair of black pantyhose so they will look properly deathrock. While drinking absinthe.

(Mind you, I probably lose cliché points because I put a glass over a possibly dead spider, then called The Husband at his D&D game to let him know he was going to have to dispose of this. I did this after shrieking faintly at the sight of it, then praising the kitties for being Fierce Hunters, indeed.)
