Now I just need to figure out when tea time is....
There's few things I love more than a Sunday afternoon library book sale....and now that the library is almost done, I have places to put my found treasures. It's such a great opportunity to stock up on classics you never remember to pick up at the bookstore (and in gorgeous vintage hardcovers to boot), big ole art books, history tomes (manged to ( Read more... ) -
Night of the Lepus..
....is just effing genius.....incredibly misguided, unironic, bloody cuddly genius. I hadn't seen it in about 15 years until tonight and only now do I realize what a shallow waste the intervening years have been.The only thing that could make it better is a Shatner cameo (but they do give you a whole lot of DeForest Kelly for good measure). See ( Read more... ) -

I am officially back among the ranks of the gainfully employed. And somehow, someway, I ended up ( Read more... ) -
Ridiculously out of touch, but there is this...
If the new Batman in July 2008 weren't enough to tickle my geek fancies, I saw the trailer for THIS last night.
Apparently I'm going to need to buy new panties next year because that's just going to RUIN all mine....
Also, much needed motivation to continue working on my transforming robot act.
Lots of posts and replies to catch up on...please excuse ( Read more... ) -
A Clip of our Creature from the Black Lagoon Act!
It's the middle bit from our Friday night performance at NYBF (it's work safe as it's before the boobies and cloacas.....). The big creature head danced in by J. Cannibal and my body suit were done by Mister Reusch of course, and well, I did hair and makeup for my creature mask as well as Mary Widow's go-go outfit ( the genius neon scrunchies ( Read more... ) -

It's the 20th anniversery of "Shark Week"...I'm so getting NOTHING done.
Goal #1 for my return to profitable employment: Get my scuba diving certification. I must swim with sharks. -
5 questions
1) How did you get started doing burlesque?
I was brought up on old movies and "Fabulous Movie Stars of the Thirties" paperdolls my mom bought me. Cyd Charisse in "Singing in the Rain" and "Gilda" affected me deeply and my dress-up trunk was filled with my mom and grandmother's old pegnoirs and gowns. Being a comic book geek got me into the Betty ( Read more... )
