Too much

[clevermanka]

I have too much to do this week and too little time to do it in. This isn't unusual for me, but today it's just more so. I was already this close to being overbooked for the week, but yesterday added another sizable obligation. Details later.

For you other list-making freaks out there:

Make your own tear-off list pads.

I'm so buying a quart of this, and adding it to my List of Projects to be Contemplated Post-Faire. (This is a perfect time for a game of Spot The Irony)

Last night I spent a couple hours cleaning the hellish pit of death sewing room and then another hour altering a bra in hopes that I could wear it for a KCRF promo on Friday night. I shortened the back and the halter neck straps by nearly two inches each. Put it on, lifted my arms, and the cups still gape. So there's another costume out the window. Bummer, too, because I only got to wear this one once (at purpledumbass's birthday party). Yes, nottygypsy, it's the gorgeous green one. Boo. I'm very sad. One, because this costume took a crazy long time to make (lots of sequins I sewed on one at a time), and two, because I now have zero cabaret costumes. Suxxor. Happily, this morning I had an inspiration on how to make the black and lime green costume a little more zippy (read: nightclub worthy), and I should be able to get that done before Friday.

How is it Wednesday already? Craziness.

I've been wanting some of that goop. Thanks for the hookup!

Yer welcome! Let me know how it works for you! I'm interested to hear real-life experiences.

You can make your own Page-A-Day calendar that way too.

... as if you needed One More Idea, eh?

Oh evil listyness......and what is that goop for exactly?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

You make a stack of whatever you want for a notepad, slap this stuff along an edge of the stack, let it dry and presto! Custom tear-off notepad!

ooooOOOOOooooo!!!!!!!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

I KNOW.

The first time I saw you dance was at PDA's b-day! So, I'm grateful to have seen the green sequined ensemble that one time at least~ I want to be YOU when I grow up...there I said it! ;-)

I want to be YOU when I grow up

Hush, you! I'm not grown-up, myself, yet! =D

[nottygypsy.livejournal.com]

That's sad really I'm sorry it didn't fit and frustrated you. Boo.

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Well, you know, if you want a second costume for when you're even smaller...This is just slightly one size down from the one you have now. I'd give you a really good price on it!

More Goal clothes! Dibs!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

It's yours, darling.

OH NO! no more cab cossies?
and extra cookies won't work? Damn.

Is your coin set viable for wearing with cab skirts? I used to "cross-cab" like that a lot and people really liked it. Often, more so than sequins. It' s just a thought until you can get one put back together.

Oh, the perils of ditching old costuming and changing shape again. It's just not fair!!!

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Yes, my coin costume is pretty versatile. But as far as glittery glass fringe and sequins--I got nothin'. Boo.

And no, this gape went way beyond the help of cookies.

Thank god I saved the old coin bra and belt. Not that I would have sold them for anything, ever! But I'm very grateful I never tried to remake them, especially the bra.

You know, taken out of context, this makes NO SENSE whatsoever.

Hell, taken in context, by someone who doesn't know our particular brand of slang-speak, it makes no sense whatsoever.

I love our members-only language.

Cab cozies? Like, to keep a taxi warm?

Naw, man, for your taxim.

Huh?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Now that's funny.

I could put it in a bellydance vaudeville act. No one else would get it.
