1775me to J-Law re: Decemberween, Ingleside, etc.

I won the hip scarf I was bidding on at ebay--only
$25, including shipping! They're about $50 at
shimmyshimmy.com! I paid via paypal & it should be
here in plenty of time for Decemberween. I have a
whole costume now: red velvet slippers ($6 at
Goodwill), necklace, belt, harem pants, top
& skirt (shimmyshimmy.com, $102). And I got a
strapless bra at Ross for like $6. Not bad!

We got a cold front yesterday afternoon, so it should
be dry enough this evening to try to make a batch of
Lynn Cookies :) Even if the meringue falls, they taste
good. Just don't look right.

Tonight is Craft Night at Sharjinka's. And I *do* tend
to get things done more at craft night than I do at
home. It's a matter of focus, I think. At home, I get
distracted by my computer, and the fact that my work
room needs a major re-org, and I don't get as much
done. When I go to craft night, I just gather up ONLY
what I need to get a project done, and it gets done.

Tonight: resew buttons & fix Celtic dress. Also maybe fix ankle bells
for Decemberween costume.

Tomorrow's my Friday. I've decided to hit 2 wineries on my way to the
coast: Poteet Country Winery (sweet strawberry wine & native
grape wines) and Dry Comal Creek Vineyards (they are the only TX
vineyard that uses French Colombard grapes)

skye_ds has decided not to drive to the coast Friday night after all,
but to time their arrival 1 hour before the faire opens on Saturday.
So very very very glad I am not attempting to vend this event, as my
setup requires at least 1.5 hours. Without being too bossy or naggy,
I suggested she give herself a bit more lead time on Saturday
morning, for traffic & also because this will be their first trip to
Ingleside and they don't know the streets or parking situation once
they get here. I'll probably get my ass chewed & head bitten off for
making the suggestion, but... enh. I don't know why I should care.
It's not my gig. I will just need to keep reminding myself (& them)
of this as the need arises.

1776 BDSM party nightmare

 

 

 

Dec. 10, 2003

 

Went to bed as soon as I got home yesterday, had a heart-pounding
nightmare:

It was about going to a BDSM party with my Sweetie.

throm was leading big shirtless hairy men around on leashes,
while they wore these creepy flesh-colored masks that piped in
nitrous or something. Sweetie was one of his pets for a little while,
and then he bought a mask & gas tanks from throm and was tinkering
around with the gas valve in the mouth of the mask.

In the meantime, I was adding a lasagne to the potluck spread.
Rkentpseth's Michael was there, I think it was his red wine that I drank.
I ate and also drank 2 glasses of wine, and then I was sitting on the
floor in a living room, unable to move. This Yankee-sounding domme I
couldn't see and hadn't seen before I found myself sitting on the
floor was behind me, giving me orders and I was apparently on roofies
or whatever, because I couldn't move or even talk enough to
say "lady, you got the wrong gal!"

Yankee Domme kept tying this wet gauzy muslin type fabric over my
face & around my neck and giving me orders & calling me names and I
just sat there helplessly. She finally gave up, saying something
like "Well, you won. You didn't respond at all!" She got up and
walked out of the room, I just saw her back as she left all mad.

Then I was finally able to move, but I couldn't stand up. I was
crawling down a hallway, trying to find someone to ask for help. I
got to a place in the hallway where there were some downward-bound
stairs on the left an a pastel bedroom on the right. Inside the
bedroom was a girl in some frilly girly PJs. I was trying to
say "help me, call 911" and I couldn't speak, I was just making all
these horrible noises.

Then I woke up.

Gah.

Worst. Nightmare. Ever.

Forecast calls for rain on Saturday.

highs in the 60s lows in the 40s, though. Not bad!
