Trundling along

Today is Goth Upkeep Day. Hair dye, having the Stroppy One trim my bangs, and manicure & pedicure. And laundry. And writing. Much writing, I hope.

The eBay UK auction for the (ridiculous, I know) Gerard Way -designed velvet jacket is getting perilously close to my spending limit. While I am not fond of auction sniping services, does anyone have a recommendation for a good one that will work for a US buyer bidding on a UK item?

(Yes, I want the jacket that much. I would have the Infamous BlueJay help me do some very careful tailoring to it, and yes, I would wear it. Possibly to one of the upcoming MCR shows, with flouncy skirts and a lace blouse.)

I hope all of you are having a good weekend.

I so understand the desire to have that jacket just because it is that jacket. I wish you all the auction-fu in the world!

Today was also pedicure day at my house.

I'm holding off on the hair dye until after I get it cut on tuesday.

today was laundry day in my household.

I'm also going to an MCR show in nyc with my teenage cousins. (I feel old)

Thinking of you in Canada!

You mentioning manicure/pedicure, had me wondering if you have seen the "shatter" OPI nail polish that was part of the Katy Perry collection. It's black, and after you put it on, as it dries, it crackles. I just got it this weekend and LOVE it. Thought you may find it fun.

Oh you lucky thing, you were able to snag a bottle of the Black Shatter polish? None of the stores around me have it in stock. but yes, I covet it muchly.
