No need to break out the chains..

Hot Asphalt will do just fine in a pinch..



Although mentioning Eddie makes me Old-ER! Thanks.. (Long Live Eddie!!)

Don't feel bad about the HT purchase.

I bought my Cookie Monster Panties there.



C is for Cookie!!!

A sometimes food? When did this happen? If cookies are only a SOMETIMES food, does that mean the cookie monster is only a sometimes monster? Is PBS trying to phase out our beloved blue-furred glutton? I, for one, shall not stand for it! I'd write a letter to the ACLU, if I wasn't so busy jamming those chocolate frosted cookies from the Vanilla Bean bakery into my gaping maw.

Did I see the words "Cookie Monster Panties"? Gawd, I'm drooling on meh keys again. E.P.S Stop being hawt or move to MN... your choice, I give you a week to decide. ^^

I went to HT about two days ago... wait no that was yesterday... no it's 3am so yeah two days ago. I was sorely dissappointed with the general collection?! I did see a furry jacket I want to copy though... need to go remnant/recycled shopping..

No0o0o0o, MN is too damn cold...

Temperatures that low remind me of when I lived in Toronto and that makes my Pink Parts sad..

*Sniffle*

But Portland is lovely, and it never gets cold enough to freeze your labia together here..

So I'm glad it's settled. You're moving to the Land of Port..

MonsterMomma,
Thanks for the tip. I'm going to Philly next weekend for Dracula's Ball; now I know to stop by Zipperhead.

Some girl hissed at me in Hot Topic. It was odd.

*sigh*

I'm jealous. I love it here(New Mexico), but sometimes I really miss the ol' stompin' grounds.

Where's the ball being held?

If you're going to be there a few days, see if Revival is still open. Used to be a "memebers only" place, but it's easy to get people standing in line to sponser you in. If it's still there, that is.

Ugh, to be honest, that store gives me a headache. I like when they have pretty black lacy things. I guess its the Victorian Renaissance thing I have going on. But otherwise, ties on girls can be cute, I do it on occasion along with the blazer. I dont like the massive chains and large pants that you could easily fit three people in...it looks good on some people, just not on me.

Blessings,
Lady Ravenna

Contempo Casual used to sell crushed velvet leggins that were really high quality. I had a pair for about ten years before they started getting unwearable. I always washed them on delicate so that probably helped. Does anybody here remember that store? They used to carry some deathrock/goth clothes in the late 80's early 90's. I got a bunch of cool stuff there back then. Unlike Hot Topic the quality was really good.

Yep, they still do the pretty lacy stuff. The crushed velvet's quality was terrible, I admitt. I get my velvet now at vintage and specialty stores online. I'm one of those ladies who cannot live without her long skirts and corsets.

The ball is at Shampoo. I'll only be in Philly two days, with only enough stamina for one night of clubbing.

horrorgirl:
Yes, I remember Contempo Casuals. I was sad to see it close at my local mall. I still have a faux suede lace-up vest that I bought there.

They probably thought you were a prep. You know, because all preps must die, and stuff. SLIPKNOT RULZ!!1!
Maybe, I was sporting my awesome Alice in Chains shirt though. XD

I'll admit I've gotten a lot of crap (keyword "crap") at hot topic, but at least they have interesting magazines. I actually found one in japanese. Now I just have to learn to read japanese. If I buy anything there it's resident evil stuff and make-up. I feel weird buying lipstick anywhere else. Honestly I may pick up stuff there for one time use on stage but only until I get enough cash to import from Japan. All I need to do that is a band...-.-
