The things people say when you go out to the club

[cupcake_goth]

From one of my companions last night at The Night Kitchen: "Yes, "milk" is my safe word".

(For the record, the StuntHusband and kiltlad are INSANE. Hot wings with a sauce made of mainly ghost chilies? Nuh-and uh. But they swore it was fantastic.)

Going out dancing last night included a fabulous and very fey young man who decided that I needed to be twirled and dipped around the floor. I don't think he had danced with someone wearing a hoop skirt before, but he was still a very good dancer.

Today has included going out to lunch, coffee, and yummy pastries with some friends, and then a flurry of productivity, what with laundry, setting up a dye bath, and packaging up everything to be mailed out from the clothing sale. Oh, and wearing my new Fluevog boots around the house to stretch the calves. (I always forget how narrow the calves of Fluevog boots are. The perils of having muscular legs, I guess.)

(Yes, I went and purchased the Libby Smith boots with the profits of the clothing sale. Thank you to everyone who helped fund my Fluevog addiction!)

Tonight, going to see Alice In Wonderland! Mmmm, eye candy. Tomorrow, the Stroppy One and I will have brunch with the StuntHusband! Then the StuntHusband and I head out for an afternoon of thrift shopping. Fear us.

Can we expect a review of Alice in Wonderland?

[cupcake-goth.livejournal.com]

Yes. The very short form is that it is very, pretty. And that I'm glad I went in with low expectations of the story.

[a-papier-mache.livejournal.com]

Ha! I did the exact same!

It hadn't arrived yet when the Stroppy One checked the P.O. Box on Friday.

For the record...

...I didn't get all the sauce out of my moustache when I went to the restroom to wash my hands and RINSE MY MOUTH OUT at the restaurant.

Woke up today, brushed my teeth, and it got on my lips again. OH THE BURNING THE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE BURNING.

(And the Night Kitchen's twitter feed was full of glee at our pain. The bitches.)

OW OW OW OW

Yes, I saw that Night Kitchen was gleeful on their twitter. Oh, how I giggled.

(Yaaaay, matching icons!)

Fluevog question

[requieminblack.livejournal.com]

Ooh! Did you get the all black with red buttons or the black/beige? I am still vexing if I want the all black with red...

Re: Fluevog question

I got the black/beige, and love them to bits. (They may actually be more comfortable than my Babycakes!) I too am now thinking Oooh, maybe I should put the all black with red buttons on my wish list ...

Did you have to stretch the calves at all? I can zip them all the way up now, but it took a few hours of wearing to get them to that point.

Did you have to stretch the calves at all?

No, I have the curse of having chicken legs with twig thin calves. I swim in them and had to buy super thick socks to wear with them.

Hey, do you still have that ivory striped skirt available that you emailed me about? I'm still interested! :)

Ooh, how was the Night Kitchen? I can remember one of the owners talking on another board about it a few months ago before it opened; she was still worrying over the menu but was absolutely dogged about seeing it through, because it didn't make sense to her that a city like Seattle didn't have more late-night places for good food loving, clubgoing insomniacs, and I thought, Add in bats and cupcakes and this place would be custom-made for Jilli.
