Ok, done now!

[clevermanka]

I'm ready for something good. It's going to have to be pretty damn big bunch of good to pull me out of this funk.

Shitty time at the Suhaila workshop.

Infuriating bullshit going on in my personal life.

Developers and expansionists won the day in yesterday's elections.

Stress at work and at home.

Still not sleeping.

Tired of people acting like selfish children and other people not taking a stand against such behavior.

So yeah. I'm ready to have a good time for a while. Any takers?

I'm heading to the beach today, I would take you with me if I could!!

I've been meaning to post in re: the skirt, which arrived Saturday, but then procrastinated because I didn't want to post until I had pictures. IT'S AWESOME. Slightly too big at back of waist band only, but otherwise fits my hips/ass perfectly. And it's SUCH an awesome material. I felt totally fancy baby when I tried it on.

The *bad* thing is that I'm a fair bit over what I like to think of as my "normal" weight (in that I'm certainly not huge or anything, but I've veered outside of my self-prescribed limits and don't fit in any of the pants in my closet) and things like this skirt make me want to not lose anything!!!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Oh, man. Just think of me while you're at the beach, OK? It's freezing here.

I'm so happy you like the skirt! Isn't that fabric the greatest? You can always keep it as a "fat skirt" for period-bloat days. =D

*groooooooooooooan*

I'm sorry, and I'm with you.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Boo. Contrary to popular belief, misery does not love company. Sorry to hear you've got the blues, too.

[curieuse.livejournal.com]

I need to kick it (and figure out how to style my new hair) by my job int. at 3:30.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Geez. At least I'm not on a time schedule to pull myself outta this hole. Good luck. Good luck at the interview, too!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

I'll keep you posted, but it's looking pretty bleak from here.

[gamera-spinning.livejournal.com]

Hey, is your amazon.com wishlist address current?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Why yes, yes it is!

[redheadfae.livejournal.com]

For a good time, call 867-5309

sorry, that was lame.

Would a viewing of something fab help? I'm free tonight.

[gamera-spinning.livejournal.com]

Excellent! There's a little bit of Marti Brom love on it's way. Should be there soon (like tomorrow).

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

You. Are. Awesome.

I've been missing those CDs since 0verdrive and I split up.

Thank you.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Actually, I just got invited to preview a play this evening. Which rocks.

Enjoy

[gamera-spinning.livejournal.com]

You're most certainly welcome. Sorry things have sucked lately. It sounds trite and cliche, but things will get better, they always do; it's just a question of when.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_luaineach/]

I don't just like it, I absolutely love it. I'm not joking, I literally did this out loud little squeal of delight when I saw that the pocket was a real pocket. And that button!

I just love it. I felt like immediately I should be in sort of slouchy black baby doll sweater, with my glasses perched on my nose, leaning sort of against something, staring out into the middle distance somewhere, and appearing to think great thoughts. Perhaps brushing my bangs out of my eyes. Er, I mentioned feeling totally fancy baby in it, didn't I?

I will send beach juju your way!

[redheadfae.livejournal.com]

ooh, very nice.
The invite stands for whatever day we can work out then.

[jamer-31.livejournal.com]

i am always up for a good time :) (restrictions apply) lol

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Hooray for feeling fancy baby!!!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

=D

I'll keep that in mind. Too bad there's no demolition derbys scheduled in the near future...not that I could afford to go right now, anyway.

[sdemory.livejournal.com]

Hell yes. I'm considering getting in on some roller derby on Friday night, if you're up for that. Alternately, hanging-out and running around would be slick beyond measure.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

This Friday? Really? Email me details, wouldja?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_luaineach/]

Posted pictures of my ass in the skirt!

[jamer-31.livejournal.com]

derbys rule. :) i look forward to them every year.

[arian1.livejournal.com]

If that was realy your number, I would die laughing.

[arian1.livejournal.com]

I vote for random fling with nubile college boy to just work it outta your system!

But that's just me.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

I had the opportunity for that one last year, but I turned it down. =b

[arian1.livejournal.com]

Well. See. No mercy then!

[redheadfae.livejournal.com]

There's a plumbing service in the area that uses that number.
The ads are pretty funny, they completely play on it.

[bestill.livejournal.com]

Perhaps it's not too late!

[bestill.livejournal.com]

Well, when ever you want to vent/bitch/whine, I'll lend you my ear and shoulder. You've certainly listened to me do that. I'm open for fun and good times too!

Things will get better! (Right?)

Let me know when you are up for hanging out & making stuff.

[chronovore.livejournal.com]

Roller derby? Really? What's the attraction?

I'm baffled because I remember it from when I was in elementary school, and I thought it was dead, and now I've been hearing about it from multiple sources for the last half year. Color me baffled.

[sdemory.livejournal.com]

It's a multi-part thing:

1) There's the pure, campy spectacle of young women in costumes shoving each other around on roller skates.
2) There's actually more than a bit of athleticism to the whole thing, which is fun.
3) The Kansas City matches are more all-purpose alt-culture happenings than just roller derby things... bands play, belly-dancers dance and shenanigans occur.
4) Because of the neighborhood in which I live and the places which I frequent, I seem to know half of the derby girls by sight. It's good to back a Midtown KC girl.
5) Four hours or so of live entertainment's hard to come by for less than $20.
6) Did I mention the costumes? Because they're outstanding.
7) Rockabilly girls. On skates. Shoving each other. On skates.

[chronovore.livejournal.com]

Ya should'a listed "Rockabilly girls" right up front. That'd get me there; actually, I know I'm sorta mixing genres, but if I could get punk/swing bands playing to accompany rockabilly skategrrls, I would be in pig heaven.

[sdemory.livejournal.com]

Well, then, prepare to be abhorrent in the sight of Muslims and Jews, my friend, because a KC Roller Warriors event has punk and swing bands playing to accompany rockabilly skategrrls.

Pig heaven is yours, once you slip the seductive lure of O-sakka and come to the wholesome Middle West!

[chronovore.livejournal.com]

prepare to be abhorrent in the sight of Muslims and Jews, my friend

WIN.

[sdemory.livejournal.com]

WIN?

Outstanding! Halal/kosher humor FTW!
