Topshop is selling a headband with faux antlers. (clicky-link!)

For $160.

Okay, ignoring the fact that You can find far better versions on Etsy for a helluva lot less (clicky-link!), I'm just ...

Antlers. Wearing antlers on your head will forever in my mind be linked with someone from my past who is BARKING MAD. There are friends who have known me forever who are reading this post, making a o_0 face, and nodding emphatically.

I am all for weird accessories and putting strange things on your head. But antlers? Faux antlers made of black leather? Ooooo-kaaaaay. And from Topshop, of all places. I am boggling.
Last night I wrote slightly over 3,000 words on the story that is due Real Soon Now. I have not yet looked at what feedback awaits me from my beta readers/sanity net, but I will. Any minute now.

Last night was also the night of my subconscious being wacky. Once I fell asleep (sometime after 3:30AM), I had another installment of my "we're at the best thrift store ever!" dream. [livejournal.com profile] poh once again found a pair of his "ninjer" boots, [livejournal.com profile] domestinatrix was loading up a cart with canning jars, I was clutching a brand-new pair of the Dr. Marten "Skelly" boots AND a b&w striped military jacket with rows and rows of silver buttons, and The Husband had just walked up brandishing a first edition of Something Wicked This Way Comes. And then people ran into the store screaming about a zombie attack. Look, I don't understand it either, but it's still a better dream than the recurring stress nightmare where I'm stuck back working at Fred Meyer.

I have realized that at some point I need to get a small soldering iron, because there are too many craft/jewelry projects I want to do that would be SO MUCH SIMPLER if I had one. Anyone have any recommendations for a good one?

Okay, going to look at the feedback on the story. Really. Right now.
