Trying to make me feel older than I already do?
Hugs are my second favorite thing in the world. The first involves hugging, but is more vigorous.

They are definitely a whoop ass cane. In fact I scared the snot out of the cashiers when I first picked it up. I held it like one of my swords. Tried the balance. Turned it around like a mace. and only then finally held it like a cane and set it down.  ;D

If you don't order from them because you find it cheaper elsewhere, you will burn in no worries. But they're good people.
What can I say, I'm cheap thrifty.  ;D

I didn't take any, as so many other folks were snapping away, and the iPhone doesn't work well in low-light situations.  I'm still waiting, too! :D

Do you want my story or the truth about ConDFW ;) ::) ;)


David, your bruise looked so real, I was afraid to ask about it at dinner...
My friend Robert is the one with the gaping neck wound with maggots. One of the 'maggots' slid down and I was going to pick it off his collar and put it back but I decided it enhanced the look. (AKA: It was so realistic that I wimped out... no metals for me) ;)

Brilliant pictures (you know, gross) :)

Once again, I had an awesome time last weekend... so what's up for this weekend? :)
I am the coolest dork I know.

The dinner conflicted with the costume parade.  I ended up lugging both costumes across the country and fretting over my act for nothing. :D  But I had crazy fun at dinner, so it's all good!

Eh, I've given Molly a lot of wear lately.  Gotta shake things up a bit.

Did I mention that I found my high school uniform in my closet, though?  I kept two of the plaid skirts (one pristine, one artistically shredded in the tradition of all graduating seniors), several pair of old saddle oxfords in varying stages of decomposition, and a v-neck sweater.  All I need is an Oxford shirt, knee socks, and a shaggy blond wig, and I'm good to go!

The happy and sad part of that is that you will fit in your old high school clothes. Yum! Can't wait to see it.  ;D

I on the other hand.... <sigh>  There was a time I wore a 30 inch waist with a 30 inch inseam. The inseam has stayed the same. I can't make that claim for the waist size though  :'(
