Wow I’m so cute in bunchies, aren’t I? And look about 12, apparently. I should do that again more often. Eyeliner is always a good thing, never never let me forget that again. *jumps around happily*

[Poll #861002]

I saw the Dresden Dolls perform at the Roundhouse on Friday. If you’ve not heard them, maybe you should - one of those rare goth/mainstream crossover bands with a very dark cabaret sound to them. I was warned the support would be, let us say ... strange, and strange it was. A whole series of several avant-garde performance artists, somewhat decadent and cabaret in style, along with all the feathers, hats and big black eye makeup, ranging from wig jugging to a unique stripper to singalong songs about aardvarks (It begins with an A ...). Um, you just had to be there ok? Put us in a lovely decadent mood for the Dresden Dolls themselves, who decided they’d not just do a gig, but a whole Show (with a capital S!), with guest performance artists on many songs swinging around above stage or prancing around onstage in gorgeous outfits. Mmm mmmmmmm. Very very happy I got to hear all my favourite songs off their 2 albums performed. I’ve been singing them to myself on and off ever since then (and I hope nobody has heard me!)

Had an even more wonderful time at the Oakdale Arms yesterday - everyone, really, everyone was there, and it was a night of buzzing between conversations, playing Jenga-of-doom with a tower reaching higher than myself (and that’s WITH my platform shoes on!), stopping [livejournal.com profile] doseybat from stealing my drink, taunting all my evil exes, discussing all the practical applications of Bovril in a seriously brain-breaking discussion and finally drinking tea into the small hours with a very pretty creature indeed (I fear I’m still crushing a little bit. Ok, a LOT. dearie me what am i like? I’m so predictable la la la. Is that bad?)

Finished watching Angel Season 5 just now, and so my brain is still going ooooh! and eeeee! and so so looking forward to what we are doing next weekend. This evening [livejournal.com profile] huggyrei kindly baked a gorgeous steam pudding and I’ve been munching that down very happily. Whatever am I going to do when she moves out?

Plans for World Domination are progressing well. Watch this space!

I don't care if it's cuter! I think CORRECT spelling is cuter! and 'bunches' is RIGHT. I extend my tongue in your direction! :P

a unique stripper

Wouldn't involve a disappearing hankie, would it?

Please tell me there are photos of you in bunches. Where's the "Bunches! BUNCHES!" poll option?

Eee, you were at the same show as me except one night earlier! And that means you got to see Jason Webley perform and I didn't, which makes me sad because he's one of my favoritest singers ever. (It starts with an A, Aardvark, Aardvark! It ends with a K, Aardvark, Aardvark!) (Also, Webley has some of the most beautiful, sad, lovely songs I've ever heard that aren't silly things about drinkin' and animals with long noses, which I Highly Highly Recommend.)

I overheard some of that Bovril conversation. My mind will never be the same again.
