Fail number one, meet winning fail number two
Well, shit. I called Cheeptrims and the venise lace for my pirate coat that was back ordered in March is still unavailable and won't ship until June. So there's no way I'll have my steampunk pirate costume for the ConQuesT masquerade. What a pisser. I'm very unhappy about that. Do I come up with a different costume idea? Skip the masquerade entirely? I'm disappointed that I won't be walking the halls in Frock Coat Finery with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
belluthien. Boo, boo, boo. All around major fucking boo.
Oh, the irony that I made my fantastically original steampunk costume for the 2008 ConQuesT when something like ten percent of the attendees even knew what steampunk was. Because I used it in the 2008 competition, I can't re-enter it. I can still use it for a hall costume, which I was planning to do anyway, but it's not the same as entering something new when I was so close to having a gorgeous costume that's appropriate for this year's ConQuesT theme. Which, did I mention, is steampunk?
*facepalm*
And now, to lighten the mood, here is an even more gloriously fantastic fail. Only this one is intentional. And fabulous. Please direct your attention to Tyra Banks' adventures into the literary world. I'm not gonna offer my comment on this, because really. The jokes write themselves.
