I had to get up an hour earlier than usual this morning because of people coming to work on the house gutters. Thanks to the miracles of modern pharmacology, I fell asleep very quickly last night, and got as much sleep as I normally would. However, my body knows that it was dragged out of bed an hour earlier than it should be, so I feel kinda woozy anyway. No, I am in no way, shape, or form a morning person. Ever.

So there's this meme-thingie I've seen in a few places on my FL about describing your style, and the clothing-type things that you wear that bring you joy. I'm actually not going to do a post with that meme. I figure if you've read my LJ at all, you know what my style is and what sort of clothing makes me happy. (If you want to refresh your memory, you should to look at entries tagged with "SFDs".)

But speaking of personal style: someone explain to me why I suddenly want a pink velvet jacket? Okay, other than because of the cover of the Winter 2007 Gothic and Lolita Bible, that is.

Look at that! Pink and black and pirate-y!
But yeah, I am filled with a longing for a pink velvet jacket, with large black buttons. If you listen even a little bit closely, you can hear
stroppy_baggage sighing the sigh of the put-upon spouse.

More tea. Must have more tea. (My current favorite, btw, is Tea Vitale's Cocoa Cardamom Tango, which is lovely. I hope it's not a seasonal limited edition -type of flavor.)
P.S. Once again, I blame what I am listening to on
minim_calibre. She knows why.

At the other extreme was my father the ex-farm boy, who sometimes got up at 5:30 without the aid of an alarm clock and went to work. He said that was the only time he could be sure no one would interrupt him. When I worked in the DC area, I learned that there's an informal network of ex-military morning people.

Yay on pink velvet!! I think it looks lovely!
Oh, and you'll appreciate this, with your love of pink and black prettiness-- 1930s, pale pink onionskin chiffon with black velvet bodice. (http://pics.livejournal.com/fashionista_35/pic/000q52w6) Another vintage dress didn't work for me, so I'm going with this one.
