Oh, my. Here I go again, with the updating of the journal before reading up on and replying to all you loverly people. I'm not even going to ask for apologies this time; send me hate mail and write me out of the will, so to speak. I'm a terrible friend, and admit it openly.
In any case, I am updating now because I am working two shifts tomorrow, and then leaving for New Orleans early on Thursday morning. You have no idea how I've looked forward to this. I have some wonderful costumes picked out and packed up, and I even bought myself a new hat for the occasion. I also picked up a cheapy-cheap-cheap transparent pink raincoat that looks somewhat surgical, for the forecast is looking a bit damp, it seems. But hell, no threat of rain can spoil my parade, baby. I only wish I didn't have to come back here.
Expect fabulous pictures upon my return, barring the loss or destruction of my camera between now and then.
Adios, suckers-
-Hyena.
P.S.: For the love of God, people- Someone take these pants!
SPOILERS! (Click to view)
I recently purchased on EBay a pair of E.C. Star plaid pants, which come nowhere close to fitting me. They're tagged a size "Small"- I usually wear a size 5, and it's my guess that these would best fit someone much smaller- maybe a 1 or 2? Maybe even smaller? I only paid 12 bucks for 'em, including shipping, so I'm not planning on relisting them. So I'm giving these pants away (well, kind of- I'm offering them to a new home at the low cost of shipping- probably under 5 bucks).
The measurements are: 28" low waist
7" rise
16" at widest part of thigh
about a 26" inseam
They're a very traditional red plaid, low-rise, "high water" style pants. They have four pockets, total- two on the thighs, and two in the back; all pockets have super-cool chunky zippers. There are chunky 6" zippers running up the back of the legs. There are no belt loops. There is one D-Ring on the front left side of the pants. There's a little E.C. Star skull and bones tag on one of the back pockets, and brand tag inside the pants with "dry clean only" instructions. No clue as to the exact material, (I think it's a cotton-poly blend) but there's very little give or stretch to the material.
I'd love for one of you smaller ladies on my friend's list to take these off my hands. Let me know if you're interested, or want pictures.
What happened to Mel? Hope everything is ok.
