Has anybody else heard about this?? Have you,

amethystjade? I just did a random search after seeing something about steampunkiness online, and combining w/something else I love, and whoa! I got a ho-ton of links!! Plus thanks to this, I just discovered a few nifty bands to boot! "Such as," you say? Well, there's The Circus Contraption Band (who remind me very much of Tom Waits at times), Abney Park (who actually do cool, somewhat dark n' gothy Steampunk-themed music w/a LOT of ME music influences infuzed into it!), Pentaphobe, Claire Fader, the Beat Circus, and Vermillion Lies. (The latter few of whom do mostly old fashioned-style stuff w/a modern twist, and make me think of the Dresden Dolls, the Ditty Bops, and Ghost Bees to a point.)

There are tutorials online about how to make SP bellydancing gear, Etsy stores w/such stuff, and YouTube vids that feature SP-themed bellydancing routines. Who knew?? I feel SO behind the times!! (But I am LOVING catching up! :D:D)

Might anyone know how to get through our now paranoid airport security w/a carryon that has some of gothic fashion's more.. industrial ornamentations? I've got a chain belt and some other non-knifey, nonthreatening but still hardwarish-kinds of accessories I'd -love- to take w/me on a flight, but I don't want to have it all pulled out of my suitcase and get sent home because it's got too pointy or potentially "dangerous." :P Might anyone know how to get around this, or have any packing tips I could implement? Me wan' take my spikey collars an' chains, dangit... ;)

Shanks!

Oh yeah, and what's this 3-ounces thing I just heard about in passing? Are they gonna make me dump out my shampoo if I take it on the plane thinking it's some birzarre type of liquid explosive?? (Hell, I just heard about LE yesterday on WTOP. Before then I didn't know that stuff even -existed.- ..Liquid explosive... WTF??? :PPP)

Peopel are weird.

I'm thinking of putting this on a t-shirt, along w/a few simple curves of the female body... (Suggestive but tasteful, of course:)

"I long to be moved by your beauty in the moonlight,
To be enchanted by your voice in the night,
To adore your sweet curves in our own sacred spaces,
And be warmed by your glow, no matter the light.

I yearn to be captivated by the rush of your kiss,
To be enveloped by your skin's gentle touch,
To get lost in the harmony of our mutual song,
And to find you; my heart's only love."

I'm pondering moving "moved" and "captivated" around.. but for the most part that's prettty much it.
So.. what do y'all think..??

I wanna do something expressive and very "me" for this, 'cause I'm sick of trying to go w/some sort of silly stereotype in mind. Yes, I'd like to attract ladies' eyes for all the right reasons.. but not by conforming to some someone else's preconceived notions that I don't fit into anyway.. ya know? So.. I'm thinkin' a cuttin' up a T and painting this on there.. and possibly wearing my new tight hoodie sweatery thing under it. Pants? Skirt?? I dunno. Hell.. maybe I'll just wear the same thing I wore on New Year's, w/the silver sequins and the gypsy skirt.... Hmm...

Well, any suggestions, anyone? ..I guess I'm kinda obviously stressin' here.. huh? ;)

Ciao for today, all! Thanks for the input in advance. ^_^

Ladies, have you ever had a shirt that just INSISTED on opening up at bizarre junctures, and thus showing off your ta-tas at random intervals in or throughout the day/evening? Ya know, it's that blouse that just seems to keep opening its top button at the most -innoportune/inappropriate- moments; putting your chest on display when you LEAST expect it and when you absolutely do NOT need/want it to do so..??

I have one of those shirts on me now, an' the only thing I can figure is that it's so loose and it has one button that's flexy, it's just popping open at odd times... It's in no way tight (actually, it's pretty enormous, as a matter of fact- all loose everywhere and billowy..), and for some reason the top button just INSISTS on coming open, to show off my tits when I least expect it, and often very much when I SO do not want it to... You know? It's embarrassing at work, frankly.. and just a little ettrangé. ;P

And now for something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT:

Secondly, have any of you been somewhat, hesitatingly smitten or infatuated w/someone who you've also found has the propensity to -drive you completely nucking futs???- You know, you like 'em, but then they piss you off and you STILL can't get 'em out of you head, even though thinking about them STILL pisses you off..??? Mixed feelings, mixed bags.. mixed noggin', mixed.. other stuff... ;) Oddness... Yeah.. oddness...

He's cute, he's sweet, but he still ticks me off, an' yet I still can't seem to get 'im outta my head. Mfer..! ...

...

Je suis confuzée...
Anyway.. HOMEWARD!!
Night, y'all!! *waves happily but wearily*
