Bad:
- The Insomnia Fairy visited last night. I traditionally sleep even worse than usual during PMS, but eeesh. If I ever catch the Insomnia Fairy, I am going to mount it in a lovely glass-topped box with a lot of shiny shiny pins.
- Writing the next Gothic Charm School has been a complete loss this week. Part of it is due to my my brain being all unfocused and wonky, part is my being intimidated about saying the wrong thing.
- I have a MASSIVE MASSIVE headache. I can't tell if it's a sinus migraine, or if something in my neck is out. I am hoping the meds and the iced tea will help. I may piteously whimper at The Husband to go make a run for iced coffee and some sort of sugary thing, but will feel awful for doing so because he's behind on HIS deadline and was unwell yesterday. Dear self, you need to take those driving lessons ASAP.
Good:
EDITED TO ADD: Hey, I'm on Goths In Hot Weather today! http://www.gothsinhotweather.com/ (scroll down to see me and Mary Poppins!)
- Oooh, I get to hang out with
staxxy today!
- I am going to try and go visit
maiaarts tomorrow!
- I am going to try and attend the gallery showing for
carpe_jugulum and
robotangel on Saturday night!
- I'm making progress on the closet culling. Soon, I move on to the taking photos of everything part.
Possibly good, possibly bad:
I've been slowly browsing through the clicky-links of distraction you lovely people sent me. Oh goodness, the List of Coveting has grown.
carpe_jugulum hon, I blame you for my sudden NEED to own these. (clicky-link!) Really, if I had the money, these would go on the top of the "Hit the shiny purchase button" list. Before new lipstick, even.

I have that too. I would love to get rid of it, but I guess it's hormone related.

By chance, I saw another intriguing blog in LJ's "spotlight" for this week. Like yours (and unlike mine), it is not especially interested in prurience (to put it as nicely as possible). But, in a wholly nice way, the first posting on it was about the writer's days as a dominatrix. (No kidding!)
Hugs, Justine

what with them being black and white and having a black lace ruffle and all. Or is it the size issue? You may simply need to ask about that.

- I have a MASSIVE MASSIVE headache.
I have the feeling the two are NOT unrelated.
Maybe some pretty hatpins will help?

I wouldn't try to reproduce this one or your clicky-link exactly since they're both in knit fabrics, which are PITA to sew. But that Etsy seller had uber-ruffly bloomers in non-stretch cotton that would be easier (esp. if you could find nifty laces!).
I've often bought or made standard poufy bloomers, but then I end up not wearing them bec. they just look 'eh' or too poufy (unless under a skirt). These knit styles are sleek enough at the hip to wear solo.

I'm looking forward to the next blog entry, though I can understand how it could be difficult to fully address. Maybe it can be posted in more than one part?

-As for the goths of color, darling, don't worry! You have advise coming out of the ying yang for it, and I have always known you (since I read your website a year or two back) to always be sensitive and intelligent. On subject that freak a lesser person (like me) out. You will be fine, I promise!
-I hope the headaches and PMS gets better, and I feel your pain on the driving thing (buses in central florida are just a pain!)
