Had a fabulous, fabulous time. Sitting in the uni library on the Monday after, it's blurred into one long big happy of vidding and icon workshops, erotica readings and workshops and food and puppy piles and joy. Adorations to [livejournal.com profile] chaosmanor for organising everything, but also specifically for being driver on the way there. Thanks [livejournal.com profile] cupidsbow for being driver on the way back :). I shall defer to [livejournal.com profile] zebra363 for proper con report and [livejournal.com profile] chaosmanor for photos of the frivolity.

Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day, and thanks to the combined efforts of [livejournal.com profile] wobowikkles and [livejournal.com profile] ascetic_hedony (and the insistence of [livejournal.com profile] vegetariansushi I'm wearing the most gorgeous red silk scarf as a headcovering, along with two small gold hoops in one ear. Added to my black heeled boots and general black attire and I am feeling Teh Sexy. :D

There is also a red shawl with tinkling silver coins that I am terrified of wearing (around my waist, which after several experiments is really *the* best way to wear it) in case I cause damage to it when I sit down. I did have much fun wearing it while doing the dishes last night, and I'll wear it while I'm shelving, for that requires no sitting. *happyhappy*

Ooooh. Can we demand pictures of you in all your pirate-y hotness?

*demands*

*grin*

OK, now* I need expert advice -- tomorrow (hopefully!) mum will be handing me a shiny CD of photos of me in my pirateyness. How do I get them so you all can see them? :D


*as if in 'later, when I actually have the data, now' because that makes sense.

The easiest way is probably to go to photobucket.com and sign up for a free account, then post the pictures on your journal. You'll upload the pictures to photobucket, then they'll show you the url that they're stored at. To make that show up on your journal, write <*img src="url here"*>, without the asterisks.

If that doesn't make sense, poke me and I'll do better.

Yay, photobucket account is aquired :) Now all we need is for time to magically pass so it's this evening so I get to see if it works! (and while we're at the whole time-magically-passing thing, can we make it assignments-magically-done, too? *sigh*)

LA LA LA ASSIGNMENTS WHAT YOU HUSH THERE ARE NO ASSIGNMENTS HERE LA LA LA

Also -- just a fyi, but if you've not downloaded the Sia album yet, I'm about to rename the directory that it's in to /private, just fyi. I'll be making a post with a link to it in a minute, so it's not like oyu have to remember that, but I thought that I'd at least warn you.

Ta :) It's safely on my harddrive -- I had no idea she did the drink to get drunk song, and I'm listening to that over and over as my 'entry point' if that makes any sense. Will be gradually expanding to the rest of the album soon :)

From: [identity profile] crumblingwalls.livejournal.com


It makes total sense - I do that, too. It's nice to have something familiar to ease you into the rest of the new stuff, you know?


From: [identity profile] vegetariansushi.livejournal.com


Er, that was me. Sorry. Way to keep track of what window you're in, self.

From: [identity profile] mynxii.livejournal.com


Yay pics!!

[livejournal.com profile] vegetariansushi you rock for asking first ;)

*bounce bounce bounce*

i am SOOOOOOOOOO pining for the puppy pile today :(

I loved the whole lot... it was so much fun, and best bit was to spend time with people i don't ordinarily get to appreciate/spend time with... yourself most definitely included.

I have to say, you have the most delightful voice. *cuddles*

From: [identity profile] maharetr.livejournal.com


We can do the puppy-pile virtually, can't we? *snuggles* Not quite the same but if we're remembering at the same time... :)

I'm clinging to the memory of the whole con, remembering what it was like to not having to think about what's coming up. Still tied up in uni semesters where time is measured by when your next assignment is due in, I'd forgotten what it really was like to live in the moment...then of course, it's only something you properly recognise once it's over. But to be utterly unstressed and occupied with joyous things -- I want it back, damnit! :)


I have to say, you have the most delightful voice. *cuddles* Why, thank you :) I guess it's my mouth that trips me up sometimes -- note to self: never attempt the letters r and w in the same syllable. *grin* See you at Serenity!

From: [identity profile] mynxii.livejournal.com


yes... clinging is a good word... and pining there's another good one...

i'm about to start organising a puppy pile event, possibly this coming sunday evening (since monday is a public holiday...although you may not get it... and if you don't get it... others might not... and that would be bad... so maybe saturday is better....?)

babblebabblebabble....

i so want it back too... *cuddles*


From: [identity profile] maharetr.livejournal.com


I get the public holiday because uni has very carefully managed to give it to me in a contact free week.

[livejournal.com profile] cricketk's V-Mars screening would be ideal for puppy-piling, imo :).

From: [identity profile] mynxii.livejournal.com


oh yes :)

i'm looking forward to it :)

i have other friends whom weren't at slashcon that go to swancon that are missing the puppy pileness too however... maybe i'll make it saturday week...

*ponders*

I always demand pictures. I also frequently demand phone calls. I am NEEDY and GREEDY and OTHER WORDS THAT END IN -DY.

Ahoy comely wench!

I be glad t' hear ye had such a great time on that thar weekend and even happier t' hear you like t' scarves.

I be wishin' t' demand pictures also!

Shame about the French, really. Obsessed with raisins. Humiliated grapes, really. Think about it.

From: [identity profile] maharetr.livejournal.com


Arrr! Greetin's!

About these plans we need t' be making for the scarves returnin': I hear thar be that thar thing called a foot-ee match on the that thar Satr'day; storms wil not pull me from the that thar tee-vee. How be Sunday, noon-ish be suiting ye?

Addin' to that, I be having many supplies left over from that thar weekend -- our that thar biscuit needs be set! :D

Hee!!

OK, it's not a pirate quote, technically, but it's been doing the endless loop in my brain:

Kaylee: Wash, tell me I'm pretty.
Wash: Were I unmarried I would take you in a manly fashion.
Kaylee: 'Cause I'm pretty?
Wash: 'Cause you're pretty.

It's a awwww waaaahh moment all in one. *sniffle*

[livejournal.com profile] chaosmanor's photos included some great ones of you!
