(Re: My costume for the second of the two Sid City Social Club Halloween meetings this week!! I organised and hosted online dance afterparties for both meetings, and spent the week slowly making wings. Altogether some of the most fun I’ve ever had in my life.)
DO IT!!!!!
BE A DRAGON
LIVE YOUR DREAMS

mel said she’d send me the uncut versions of both meetings so if i get permission i’d wanna post them both on tumblr with like...... timestamps, and a transcript, mostly for my own reference, but also because i know a bunch of you enjoyed everything we talked about ~

#she was born at 11:57am and she belonged to a neighbour#but her mother ignored her for too many hours and she was slowly heading towards the river and other lambs already drowned#so my mother hopped the fence and yoinked the lamb#and we went to the supermarket and bought goat milk#and then went to the farming store and bought proper sheep formula#and IT KISSES MY FACE SHE LIKES ME ;A;#and she spent the entire day hopping around the living room and peeing on stuff and sleeping on my lap#I called her Evan and I honestly don't even know why. she just appeared and I was like HI EVAN#it's either that of Ghost 'cause she escapes that playpen on the left there like she's whoosing through a wall#*#anyway#sheep#my face#lambs#animals#about me#....also yes the thing i couldn't tag this post before:#untagged DCBB#which i will again come back and tag with a real title later#post of postiness#also for clarity: the neighbour who owned the lamb said he doesn't want it because it's been humanised. but we had to or it would've died#GUYS I THINK IT'S SPRING

contains personal chit-chat, a selfie, and a photo of one of our iridescent chickens, because i kept getting distracted (potentially because this episode wasn’t particularly enthralling)
also, flawed time travel logic
♥
so apparently someone made a survey of favourite destiel fic authors (that someone being @unforth-ninawaters), and somehow i’m ranked as 5th favourite????!?! thaNK YOU people who put my name down????? my mother is gonna be thrilled (and then ask why i’m not #1)
on another note, i’ve spent the last two days of my life painting my room purple after literally 8 years (and i mean literally, not figuratively, or exaggeratively), trying get my health up enough that i could paint a hecking wall. it. is. done. THE WALLS ARE PURPLE
I AM PLEASED
AND DEAR GOD I AM EXHAUSTED IT’S 3AM everything hurts i’m dying i need to sleep
k bye

behold, my face! going from most recent to oldest. (1/2/3) 29th January 2015: I got my hair cut! I've wanted it short for years, so the weightlessness is super satisfying. (4) 20th January 2015: my mother tried to cut my hair, and we got halfway done before we ragequit. I thought it looked okay until the hairdresser showed me the back and... nope. it was like the worst mullet in the history of mullets. good riddance. (5) 4th January 2015: obligatory cat moustache photo! (6) long hair. I sort of miss it already but I also have no regrets?? (7/8) December 28th 2014: bought some new (second-hand) clothes last month, brought everything home and tried it all on again. the new clothes and the new hair make me feel all refreshed~ 2015 ought to be a cleansing year. ♥
photos of my face were requested, so here you go
from the top left: 1. that is my face, hello // 2. me in my natural habitat (my glasses are wonky, and I wear pyjamas 99% of the time) // 3. Julie McNiven and me, April 2012 // 4. Kim Rhodes and me (this happened and I'm still happy about it), October 2013 // 5. me today, absorbing some much-needed vitamin D
