Entry of the past | Entry of the future
I have pretty much officially decided to go to Azkatraz. Fuck yeah!
I am going to be even more poor this year than I was last year. But these past few years have been the best of my life. Phoenix Rising, Portus, Terminus, Dragon Con, Texasgiving, Tybee; all of it has been amazing and I don't regret a single one of them. The fun I've had was worth the money spent. And that's part of the reason I'm going to Azkatraz even though it's probably not a good financial desicion. I never regret spending money if I have a blast.
Speaking of money, I had the filthiest tip this past weekend. While working at the Pirate Ship I am dressed somewhat skimpily most of the time.
This guy is looking at my corset and asks if I can breath while wearing it.
I tell him it's not tight, since it's an older one that's too big for me now.
He doesn't believe me, so I prove it by sticking my arm down the side of my corset.
He tosses the wad of moneyhe's holding on the counter, says "That's worth a tip!", and slips his hand down the side of my corset quickly, then leaves.

...WTFOMGBBQTURTLEPOWER?!?!
Seriously? I was just sort of shocked still, then I counted the money he'd thrown down. $27. Not bad for completely random violation of space. Besides, unless he likes sweaty side, he didn't get much out of it.
Spent some filty tip money on dinner.

And go the filthy tip money. Hey, whatever works hey babe.
I am bored out of my brains, but at least I have computer here.
Love Sonia :)
Are you sharing a room with someone? I'm trying to find a spot to stick my 15 yr old cousin Keith somewhere. Know of any floor space someone wants to give him for 3 days?
Whoa...was the $27 worth it, then? That's pretty crazy. How the hell did you keep the corset on if he could stick his hand down your corset?
The corset is a 24" at the waist and I usually lace down to a 21" or so with my 20" corset. My hips are still too big for either, so the 24 stays on and shows my shape, it's just against my skin instead of cinching.
Money can always be lost and made, over and over, but times like these can't be replaced, each is different and a new experience ... glad you are coming. We sacrifice a lot to make the cons, but we have so much fun it's worth it.
Yay!!!
There's never any good HP shite going on over here on the East coast. Meh
Hugs,

Yay! I hope to see you in SF!!
I hope to see everyone there!
SQUEE! Azkatraaaaaz!
I can't wait to work on DD now. The fabric I got for his coat is just ... it's bordering on too much, but it has to happen. I still can't finalize a design. I was thinking coat tails.
Tails, yes! But make them really long and put wire in them so they curl at the ends! I'm using my frock coat because I'm probably not going to have much sewing time.
And you can always stick your hand down the side of my corset. I don't ever lace them too tight on my ribs, and you're my Lady Wife.
Question, my dear, are you planning to stay here when you come in? You're MORE than welcome, I'd love to have a roomie for a week. Let me know, though, when you do.
