Teddy Girls NYC. 2016.
It was pirate weekend at the ren faire. We drank mead and frolicked with fairies and sassed the sheriff and also I was burned as a witch. A++++ would anachronism again.
PS: @amazingexplodingwoman is the best expert faire guide ever and has the prettiest bodice, if you know what I mean.
Organizing old photos: a recipe for nostalgia. Can’t wait to see my robot frenz again.
A precious Flux and a tiny baby and a pair of rainbow socks.
When it’s too rainy for your planned spring picnic in the park, obviously the thing to do is move the entire thing indoors and picnic on the floor instead. Thank you @fyodorpavlov for a lovely afternoon!
One of my other favorite birthday gifts this year was a set of hand silkscreened naked lady napkins from @asphesteros‘s luminous bride. They are so gorgeous I am almost afraid to eat with them, but I’m totally gonna.
Round two of Drunk Shakespeare with my angel husband @fleepnomore. The new-to-me space has better seating but sadly fewer snacks. The show is still a good time, though. Recommended.
Sometimes @bloodwillhavebloodtheysay and I go out for margaritas and take pictures of each other taking pictures of each other taking pictures of the margaritas.
Number 83 was only my second birthday show, as it happens. It exceeded expectations in every way - full of lovely friends, unlooked-for surprises, and enough whiskey that I’m more than a little ambivalent about being at work this morning.
But I stand by my previous assertion. The cast is really strong currently, and now that I’ve finally experienced the rest of the new content, I feel like I have to urge you again to visit the hotel if you haven’t recently. There’s just a lot of wonderful happening in that building and I think you’d be sorry to miss it.
I almost forgot to mention the actual best thing that happened at the show last night. I was in the lobby, watching the porter, when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to see @evenghostandhorse, who I didn’t even know was in the building. She pressed something into my hand and whispered “This will keep you safe.” I moved into the light and opened my fist to find: a tiny golden dick.
A minor Brooklyn miracle: brunch for six at @piesnthighs with no wait. Their chicken biscuit is heaven already but it’s even better in the company of belated birthday babe @leendaloo.
More photos from the Tweed English Public School Picnic we hosted yesterday. Perfectly spent gorgeous autumn afternoon. Thank you to @dandyportraits‘s own Rose Callahan for the majority of the beautiful documentation.
Over the weekend I ate some tweed.
That time my friends were so perfect it made me angry.
Scenes from Witch Party II: The Witchening, a gathering of some of my favorite drunks and miscreants. We got tipsy on themed SNM character drinks and ate a variety of unlikely foodstuffs, then played Cards Against Sleep No More and Clusterfuck. I only want to do shots out of syringes from now on.
