success

(e:hodown), where my prize at????

there were no peacock feathrs but i made one amzing bird. everyone, including myself agreed i had the coolest costume.

like tim gunn says, "make it work", which i totally did.

a couple was dressed as tim gunn and heidi klum at one of the parties. we made great friends. only true fashionistas can understand the meaning of couture halloween...

more pictures to come later.....

The feathers and glitter creates a pretty look.

lilho - 11/01/09 13:39
i painted my face. the feathers are glued to my eyebrows... well not anymore but they were. it looked so cool, but so uncomfortable and i am now so sick and allergic today from all of the feathers and glitter. surprised i didn't go blind.

heidi - 11/01/09 13:39
Wow!!! How did you do that? I want more pix!

paul - 11/01/09 13:31
is that painted on your face, or some sort of applique with feathers

peacock

i am obsessed with being an amazing diy peacock for halloween. its getting expensive and i don't know if i can pull it off.

ALL to prove a point my friends.

i can do this...

hodown - 10/30/09 12:14
I approve of this.

heidi - 10/30/09 11:07
Wow!!! That sounds so cool!!! how about fairy wing frames available at party stores? I've heard that nice pet stores have lots of peacock feathers for cats for pretty cheap.

a lack of glamour here

my sister life is not very glamourous and this upsets me. she carries her laundry down the street like a common hobo... to the laundromat and back.

i'm hoping to change some of this for her, at least for a day. maybe i will treat her to a an overnight spa day for her xmas gift.

i am on the no spending money plan which includes me. sitting at home when i am not working, thinking about how i should get online and do my french assignments and then watching netflix and eating chocolate and mac n cheese.

by christmas i may not be allowed in the spa, you will need a crane to lift me.

the good news is my clothes still fit which means if i stop this now, i can be back in shape in just a month. must hike 4 miles a day.

anyway, (e:deeglam) is supposed to come soon, and she gets a spa day too. i am so sick of the lack of glamour everywhere. are we doomed to life a plain and sparkleless life?????

Yes, I definitely need a fashion advisor like you. I completely lack whatever it takes to dress "glamourously".

metalpeter - 10/23/09 16:52
I do wash at my mothers. Clothes you have to do your own. I have thought about maybe going to the Place on Brynnt I guess they have flat screens in there now. There also used to be a place on Main St. that connected to a Bar. But that was way to far for me.

hodown - 10/23/09 09:51
I'm freaked out by it as well (e:tiny). I don't dry anything and I wash everything on different cycles. I just can't stomach the thought of letting someone else do it.

tinypliny - 10/23/09 08:54
I would be totally freaked out if someone else did my laundry (well, apart from someone in my family). I usually prefer that EVERYthing be washed on the highest heat settings and the highest stress cycle regardless of whatever instructions there may be.

vincent - 10/23/09 00:45
I carry my laundry to the laundromat, but I come back later in the day to pick it up washed and folded. Well Most things I do drop there, but there are still some clothes that I do wash on my own since I can't trust them follow the instruction label.

hodown - 10/22/09 21:15
Dude I live in the city, everyone does it. I loathe it, but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.

all by myself

My lappy is sick. I couldn't get an appointment at the genius bar until tomorrow night. Until then its just me.

I am forced to use Julie's IBM to do my work tomorrow. The thought makes me want to barf.

Anytime I get sad I think of (e:Deeglam) who has been through so much. Send her happy thoughts and love, she has a lot on her plate.

Its crazy how much I don't want to be in Buffalo, but there are so many people there that I want to be there for.

Today is the first day since I have left that I have actually considered going back.
.
I hope this feeling is short lived because I detest winter like no other.

Oh the tragedy of a sick mac. What is wrong with it?

metalpeter - 10/14/09 19:46

businesscheese - 10/13/09 20:35
