Finding new pretties

[fluffymark]

*gorgeous* party full of very pretty waifs and strays on Saturday, some new faces and other more familiar ones I’d not seen in a while. Not sure my Lolita outfit was entirely waif-like, but it got a lot of praise, and that can only be a good thing so yay for that and big yay for meeting lots of interesting foppish people. Also discovered that Nini’s idea of how to mix a G&T involves far too much Gin, with fairly predictable consequences when applied to a lightweight fluffymark. Ooops.

Sunday cassielalone and myself finally saw CharlieJohnny Depp and the Chocolate Factory. Wow. Lots of Wow. Johnny Depp, in a velvet frock coat, top hat, and shiny purple gloves. Let’s repeat that, shall we? Johnny Depp, in a velvet frock coat, top hat, and shiny purple gloves. *nods* And he makes Willy Wonka be a totally sociopathic fruitloop. I loved it, all of it. What’s not to like? *approves*

And wingedharlequin very kindly just now pointed me to t.A.T.u’s new video. *squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee* Yes, they’re back, they sound just the same, but the video for All About Us is dark in all sorts of fascinating ways. Worth watching even if you don’t like the music (but then, I like that too, but I’m just a sad fangirl).

t.A.T.u's videos (after the first) have tended to have quite a dark edge to them.

[fluffymark]

They've always been a bit contraversial and gone for the shock value, yes, but I wouldn't have called the previous videos (that i've seen) dark in any way. This new video takes it to a whole new level, I don't know where to start. It's absolutely fantastic though. And they're not even kissing in this one.

t.A.T.u’s new video.

Linky?

[fluffymark]

Oh ummm...actually I don't know where it came from because wingedharlequin set the download going while I was having dinner. I'm sure you'll find it out there if you search hard enough. Or I could put it up on my webserver if you can't find it?

What is this mysterious "far too much Gin" you speak of, sir? I refuse to believe it exists...

[fluffymark]

Too Much Gin is when you find that someone's been drawing pretty things all over your legs and you've got very little idea of how it got there.

Did you drink all the Gin you brought? I recall you appearing with quite a few bottles...

[mrph.livejournal.com]

I had some help. :-)

The Plymouth vanished rather quickly, but some of the Gordons Distillers Cut did actually survive the party. Just. Much like me, actually...

[fluffymark]

Undrunk Gin? What horror is this? *shocked*

[mrph.livejournal.com]

I suspect it's been fixed by now...

I was more disturbed by the uncorked but completely untouched bottle of rather good Rioja. :-/

untouched bottle of rather good Rioja

Almost blasphemy that is. :(

[robert-jones.livejournal.com]

Fret not. It was finished fairly quickly the following day. Whereas there was still a little gin left last time I checked.

[mrph.livejournal.com]

That's ok then. As long as it served a purpose. :)

[robert-jones.livejournal.com]

The post-party gin count was about 400ml of Gordon's "Distiller's Cut", so somebody must have drunk it. We were a bit disappointed as we had had a strange fantasy that the party might be gin positive.

[fluffymark]

Robert, are you telling me you have *fantasies* about Gin?

[adamw]

we had had a strange fantasy that the party might be gin positive

I'm worried too.

It was certainly "alcohol positive", though... :)

Shiny purple *latex* gloves.

Rar.

[fluffymark]

*nods* oh yes. Latex. And goggles too. Now, if someone turned up at Slimes wearing all that lot, would that be cyber or trad? *boggle*

Just a nudge for you to poke relevent people about castles!
*poke*

[fluffymark]

People have been prodded by email-sticks. I'll see if those pretties downstairs are in now.

[snow-leopard.livejournal.com]

Any answers? Don't mean to nag but as we have paid deposit could do with getting people confirmed.

Liriselei came back and commented on how pretty you were :)

[fluffymark]

*blush* well, of course I was pretty. :)
