Thank you to everyone for your answers to my last post!

I think I'm going to end up buying 7 meters of 152 cm wide fabric (or whatever the equivalency of 60" fabric is. I'm planning on making a version of this which

so, I know where I would go to do my fetish/bdsm shopping
(brick n mortar)

and where i would go get bored with clubbing (i would have my own private party in front of the tv)

but if you had people flying in from overseas that wanted to get their fetish/bdsm on, where would you send them ?


(i'm wondering what i'm missing)

Right now I have 3 events confirmed for New Zealand and Australia.
The first is the Southern Exposure Weekend and the New Zealand FetishBall in Christchurch (Nov 14-16).
The second is a smaller party in Sydney on the 21st of November (Hellfire)
The last one is in Melbourne and takes place the 29th of November.
I'll be performing with fd_midori and each performance will be a different show

I will be returning to Sydney after the Melbourne event to fly back to San Francisco but not sure if I'll stay a bit longer (I think by the end of the trip i'll either want to get back to Cali or head home after so much traveling!)

So I'm trying to figure out which dates I will be traveling to/from cities in Australia.
How many days will I need for shoots, hanging out, sleeping,etc.

The sooner i can figure these out, the sooner i can book the flights before they get too costly.

i'm not looking for TFP. Although i have a lot of fun with it, this is my job and the way i pay for rent (and latex!)

if you're interested, please write as soon as u can and also do say which city is best! (saying "australia" doesn't help me as it's kind of big!)

yum yum yum

belladonna_ mentioned a delish sounding snack in passing at Tiffanys picnic last night. I believe I heard it as crackers, cream cheese and olives. These are three of my favorite ingredients and together, well, wheeeee! I tried a few tonight and they're deligh! I'm just wondering if I'm making them right. So much teh yum!

Next I tackle hummus with pesto sauce on it pronto style! Yummo!

Ever wonder why you can't stop getting called a dumb nigger?



Well, if you are going to behave like this ridiculous asshole, then don't expect for higher thinking to ever prevail or progress to be made.

LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT - The lost Lon Chaney masterpiece FOUND!


FINDING THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER "LOST" FILM IN CINEMA HISTORY


(A Horror Drunx Exclusive)
by Sid Terror
July 23, 2008


Yes. It is true. For those who scoff and doubt (I'm sure you will be legion) that the most notorious lost film of all times was located, I will say it again with authority and conviction...


I, Sid Terror, saw Lon Chaney's lost classic LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT with my own eyes. Without a doubt. No I am not talking about a recreation made completely from still photos, I'm talking about the entire long-lost motion-picture!

Read the entire article and find out more! The discovery of 25 missing minutes from the silent classic METROPOLIS made international news headlines a few weeks ago.
THIS story is bigger because it concerns an entire lost masterpiece!

Here are some of my collages I made on Polyvore.com. This site has become very popular...
I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't yet given it a try.

( a giant dump of lovely, brought to you by Brytnee Fae! )

I've had a look at some websites, and have decided to make my next corset with grommets instead of eyelets. What are the differences besides size 0 and size 00? Which one is better?

For both boys and girls

( contains spoiler )

I think it's her. Can anyone confirm?

Lip Service/Hot Topic/Posters/Shoes/Jewelry/etc

( .Lots of new things added!. )

Why is 'Kit' such a hard name for people to understand?

I swear, every time I have to tell people my name I spend 5 minutes having to explain it, spell it out, sound it out. "No not Kip k-i-"T", Not Kitch "KIT" No NOT KITH "KIT" T like 'medical *Kit*, like the fucking knightrider Car............"Bob?"....how the fuck did you hear Bob [yes from a Honda dealer]' What the hell!? there's only 3 letters, it can't be that hard.

I am setting up the brunch for Sat. at 9:30am but need a headcount.  Laura is setting up the dinner, also on Saturday and at Columbia, and she also needs a headcount, today!  You can tell me directly or through here if you want to go to the brunch.   Laura is asking that she be contacted directly through her e-mail < spacekadt@ninehells.com >. 

I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but I checked the tags and memories and didn't find anything so...  What exactly is the best way to insert a busk?  (Diagrams, videos welcome!)  I can't think of a good way to do it.  Thank you!

Even though it really has nothing to do with the show... spoiler i guess if you don't want to know who he is dating/ or who was voted off.

Who could it be???

Here's the deal:

I'm a dancer and I'm in Paris for a couple weeks, and I've decided to make a dance for camera work, which means I need a costume pronto!

No sewing machine and need to work with the costume to really make the work, so I need it now not later.

Here's what I want, exaggeratedly long flowing dress (like 2-3 feet beyond floor length long), a light material that will be a little flowy normally and when wet will be clingy and translucent. The top, I'm not really picky about it--I want simple and feminine and as no sew as possible. I don't care about finished edges on this one, just a basic shape and silhouette, although I'd like to underplay the seems rather than going with a pieced together look.

I know it's going to take a lot of fabric to make it full and long, and I'll have to sew long side seams, but I'm not sure of the most efficient way to do the top and I'd prefer not to gather at a defined waistline to create the fullness in the skirt.

If you have any tutorials or advice to achieve anything remotely like what I just described, I promise pictures and maybe video once the project is done!

x-posted--I know this isn't advanced in a good sewing technique kind of way, but without a sewing machine and time to search for patterns or mull over how to make it work from scratch, I feel like this is one of the most challenging projects I've taken on in quite a while.

(I have ideas of where to go for fabric, but if you have a favorite parisian fabric store, please share!)

Hey just saying Hello Im new to LJ and not sure how it all works yet but Im here to share my poems and thoughts to anyone who wishes to read them :) and please do not hesitate to befriend me :)
~Pyriel~ 

The books I was busy reading lay spread on my bed,
like a lover fast asleep after a night of sweat and warmth filled gentleness, each page touched tenderly with curiosity and love, trying to secretly unlock that which was hidden by the contents. Other parts were handled over and over again with frustration of being stuck in the vast unknown, words were known yet sounded like a extinct foreign language, forming great mysteries that were refusing to give a clue, or would just start out with a small one and then leave you standing in the dark, dazed and confused.

I hope this fits in the community.
