Sydney's Dust Storm

Did you all hear about the dust storm in Sydney, Australia? These images are crazy. More here. And NPR's article here.

Precision

Wow, I thought this was a set of hangers at first, they're so perfect.

Rerish the thought

There are so many Engrish sites, and most of them are funny. I was sent this collection today, which features a shirt that I actually bought in Japan! It burned in the house fire, so I'm happy to at least have this picture to remember it by.


And just for fun: a collage my friend Lauren Argo and I did together there. The fish image is actually one we saw on a sign by a pond.

Scamp

These are the pants I made out of 2 skirts. I'm demostrating that they're pants. They're meant to be worn under other costuming, so this is just a preview. I'm wearing them this evening @ Natasha's, dancing with Rakadu @ 9pm.
In other news, a Morton's neuroma in my foot dictates that I can no longer wear the cute shoes I have (I have extremely wide feet, so finding cute shoes that look dainty AND fit my feet reasonably is nearly impossible). So I am limited to wearing my running shoes, my sandals, or these Danskos. My friend Sarah found them new at a thrift store and gave them to me (lucky me!). I actually like them more than I thought I would, they don't feel or look quite as chunky as they look off my feet (am I fooling myself? ha). Anyway, the combo of them and my art-nouveau capris with elastic waistband make me feel a little bit granny-ish. But at least I'm enjoying it. *scampy smile*
