Again with an update of randomness

Gaaah! The sun! THE SUN!!

(insert the standard Seattle goth-girl whinging about hot weather here.)

I'm discovering that it's not so much that I don't like the heat (and I don't, believe me), but being out in strong sunlight really does give me welts. Not a sunburn, but raised, itchy welts. It's a good thing I have a collection of parasols, that's for sure. Now where do I get my GothCard stamped for extra points?

The kitties are still overwhelmingly cute, and are showing signs of getting along better. Ruthven hopped up onto the couch with Trinian last night, and she only hissed a little bit, and didn't do anything else but sniff at him. Ruthven hopped down after a minute, but still! Progress!

Tzepesh is fascinated by running water; as soon as I start running a bath, he has to stand with his paws on the edge of the tub, watching. He also walks along the edge of the tub while I'm in it, but hasn't (yet) tried to walk on the water or jump on me. I bet it's only a matter of time, tho'.

By way of [livejournal.com profile] pennydreadful's journal, A faux fur stole.(Yes, that was a clicky link!) A faux fur stole made to look like a vintage fox stole complete with the head and tail. In bright pink. Of COURSE I want one. Well, I want a custom one in cupcake pink. But the little beady eyes! And the mouth that opens and closes! I could do little puppet shows with it to amuse myself! Why are you all backing away from me?

Coloring books are fun and silly stress relief. No, you get no other context.

what we need here is a masculine parasol. hmmmm

Indeed. How sad that there are no signs of such things.

sounds like they need to be created.

[identity profile] shoindiematrix.livejournal.com 2006-06-30 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Indeed they do. I see dark colors, like mahogany with black fabric.

I have a similar image, myself.

Hmm...Now if only I had the talent to build such things...

looks like you just need the ability to *shop* for such things.

try looking for an umbrella that fits this description

Indeed, indeed. I'm sure I can find something similar. If not, I can simply re-cover a dark handled, small umbrella that I own.
Probably finding one would be much simpler. Certainly though, I will keep my eyes open.

if you can do it yourself, you can use whatever fabric you like. Including a dragon brocaded satin.
