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
chaosmanor for organising everything, but also specifically for being driver on the way there. Thanks
cupidsbow for being driver on the way back :). I shall defer to
zebra363 for proper con report and
chaosmanor for photos of the frivolity.
Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day, and thanks to the combined efforts of
wobowikkles and
ascetic_hedony (and the insistence of
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*

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*

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

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!

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*

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.

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.
