-----------------------------------------
BABY just added an adorable bunny print in L size, and it's actually L (to 102 cm), instead of their previous L which wasn't. They also have a skirt with a 58-100cm waist!!
I'll have to think about this. maybe brown...? since I have a couple black ones?
I keep thinking of how cute and classy Kumiko-san (one of BABY's designers) looked when I saw her in Tokyo wearing a darker (I think it was brown) color way of Mother Goose Starry Sky. She really impresses me. She really seems to be able to wear lolita almost all the time, but comfortable in it.

I really need to go back through my loli wardrobe and reevaluate some things. Like, I'm really just not sure if the BW version of the longest name JSK is for me. I'd have to mod it a little, and there's something about the white accents that makes it a little too sweet, I think. I'd rather have it in BXB. ..... and I'm not sure about this hot pink snowdot JSK. I LOVE IT, but it's a little small in the bust area.
But maybe I'll take some photos with them on and you guys can help me decide. <3
Thinking about what I want to wear for the Hello Kitty Bats N Cats Masq, too.

So I got these both yesterday(under the cut), the one behind my ear is fine so far, but the one on my forearm is already bleeding ink. My arm is also swollen and I was wondering if anyone has asked their artist about using an ice pack on a swollen tattoo?

( tattoos here )

Yeah, you don't care, but the Scottish really really DO, so.

I'm heading to Bridge of Allan in a bit to see the fireworks--mebbe walking, maybe bussing, and meeting up with ppl there so woot.

And it turns out, guys, that the partying yesterday? Was just Some Guy's Party that got waaaaaaay out of control. Like 70 people showed up and it had to be shut down by eleven kind of out of control.

It wasn't even a holiday, like today.

Let me cook you some dinner.
Sit down and take off your shoes
and socks and in fact the rest
of your clothes, have a daquiri,
turn on some music and dance
around the house, inside and out,
it’s night and the neighbors
are sleeping, those dolts, and
the stars are shining bright,
and I’ve got the burners lit
for you, you hungry thing.

I have banned user censorshipbomb and removed his two latest posts. I've left the first post, as I haven't had a chance to read it in its entirely, I have frozen it. However, I believe it's spam and doesn't conform to community standards. It is frozen and when I am available, I will check that.

Who wants to listen to me bitch? Just frustrated I guess. Waking up to a slew of banking/paycheck problems and finding out the person who has Atlas's shoulder might be on the Bad Seller list for flakiness doesn't help. :( It's just been a rough year financially and a "luxury hobby" is seeming more and more unlikely? irresponsible? I don't know. I don't know if I even want to give it up but sometimes I wonder if I should.

Whelp if you read any of that you probably deserve cookies at this point. :P I need addresses, I need to know if you prefer gingerbread/sugar cookies with/without frosting, I need to know if you have any weird allergies or are vegan or anything. I actually have made vegan sugar cookies before, they weren't bad. Not exactly the same, but not bad. Super early I know but I want to try and actually get them sent before Christmas this year. XD So yes send, PM's to keepithushhush on the Den of your choice or emails to hushhush.rose at gmail.com! Go, go, go!

Annnd since this post isn't random enough have some links:

The original minime?

For anyone who loves toys/commiserates with forced gender roles? I dunno, it's Mika and I rarely understand what he's talking about but goddamn if the boy doesn't make me smile.



I think I'll bake some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies or spend some time cleaning Atlas to see if that doesn't cheer me up. :)

**eta: Oh yeah, Happy Guy Fawkes Day!

A beautiful fall day at a local park.  The color of one tree in particular was so intense, it seemed luminous, glowing like embers against the milk and cobalt of the sky.  The rains have transformed the dry fields into vast expanses of emerald, and the local vineyards glitter with bronze and scarlet.  As an artist, I especially love the light this time of year, it has a deep, golden clarity, and the shadows are rich with shimmering color.




( Alight with color... )

I. I was born a catholic, I find your censorship and close mindedness to be rather sad.
II. The catholics kicked my ex wife, before we were married, before we met, she was raped and she went to a catholic hospital, they threw her out on the street for using foul language.

You should really be ashamed of yourselves. Do you think a prostitute that got raped and drugged and beaten by some horrible ghetto old voodoo thief really can control her language fully? Maybe consider that was part of her injury?

Jesus was nice to Mary Magdalan, Catholicism, you have failed at Christianity.

You reject all the things that Jesus embraced. The poor, the ill mannered,


I rarely see you casting out demons in Jesus' name. I just don't see it. I see a whole lot of pagan pork worship and selective bible reading.

When you roll over on your back to contemplate being awake and all the other mammals in the house take this as an invitation to use you for a pillow, it becomes exponentially more difficult to get up in the morning.

Goals for today:

*write (at least) 3k
*go to aquarium training (we get to learn about fish acquisitions & saving the bay!)
*don't get sick

Tomorrow:

*write (at least) 3k
*go to a write-in
*make winter curtains for upstairs
*don't get sick

It would also at some point be useful if I did more laundry.
