I really hate Mercury Retrograde.
Mar. 2nd, 2006 10:33 amWhen one writes for a living, Mercury Retrogrades can really suck. With the exception of some moon phase ebbs and flows, this is the only astrological occurrence for which I have a great deal of respect. The rest of it is sort of crap, in my world. (shrug)
(On the other hand, I'm glad thatkittenpants is experiencing her usual, equal-yet-opposite reaction. Hi, honey!) Yes, I should have more clever-er words than that, but hey. Bite me.
While I try to get my groove on, here's a preview of Content-Free Friday with a silly quiz. ( pagan familiar -- woof. )

A terrible, wonderful idea.
Mar. 2nd, 2006 11:35 pmSo, I'm seeing people posting about faire this year, and I begin to angst about what I'll wear for the one day I perhaps get out there. (sigh) Yeah, I'm making friends with my vanity, finally.
Late-night brainstorming, fueled by the desire to goof off and not wash any more dishes, brought forth the following idea: I should dust off my fencing garb. Wear the fencing jacket, and bribe the leathermaking fiends in my social circle to help me with vambraces and breeches. I've even got an unadorned ring belt.
I'm going to see if cavalier boots are made for legs as short as mine, and look into dye for my white leather gloves. Plus, I will certainly need a rapier. Oh, yes, I will. This idea pleases me greatly, mostly because it doesn't involve me doing all the work myself, because I won't do it if it's just for me. It'll also leave me free to indulge in costuming other people, which I'm willing to pull all-nighters for. Go figure.
Now, it's off to bed. The first alarm goes off at 6 a.m., and I really don't want it to hit me like the judgement of an angry god. XO
EDIT: Well, that's fun. I just tried to post a comment to your reply,chaosdruid, and it 'sploded on me. All gone. Gah.
FURTHER UPDATE: Shit. Surely I can find them for a bit less. Any maybe in a dark brown instead of black. http://www.swordsofhonor.com/womthig.html
