10:38pm

i need a dress form and a lot of pins.

7:57pm

ooo, and i forgot , fuzzy gave me this cool future looking clear plastic tubing :)
and i found a ton of huge white tassles! and rhinestone and bead encrusted white fabric for collars and cuffs and pockets and otehr trimmings!
god, i am so glad i hung on to all this fabric all this time :)
i will take pictures of it all when the lighting is better!

7:33pm

i am putting all my white fabric together to see what i have. although i only have about 1/3rd of it actually out.
i don't have room in my bedroom to spread ALL of it out.
it just ocurred to me that my white parachute would be good to make the train of the dress out of, because i could make it be detachable to i could machine wash it afterwards.
walking through the soggy springtime praire with a white train dragging on the ground made of expensive silk or lace is just not something i want to deal with.
i could make the entire dress out of the parachute material, really.
then i can just know it is wash and wear.
dunno. will think about it.
also i took out 2 pairs of boots that were pretty cheap to buy and i am thinking of how i could sew frabric onto them to make them white instead of having to buy white boots.
it might look cooler to have them handmade, in the style of the dress.
i have so many ideas.
if i can just get thme done in time.
i just need to make this dress and boots.
and get my hair white.
and...a bunch of other stuff.
but i have to work really hard to get it done in time.

i feel like i am in the show "project runway" although thank god my only person i am doing this for and i have no annoying people looking over my shoulder critiquing what i do.
although i suppose as i make the dress on cam, it is almost the same thing.
as long as i have my physical space to myself, i'm cool.
20 minutes until lost!
jason is taping ANTM for me.
it mskes me happy seeing so many white fabricy textury things all together.
white velvet, white antique lace, crocheted table clothes, white antique fur stoles, silk meshy things...
so much texture :)
this dress is going to all about the texture.
just a massive voluptuous extravagant deconstructivist couture thingamajig.
i hope i can pull it off.
i think i can.

6:53pm

boots boots boots....

DROOL!

DROOL!

DROOL!

DROOL!

 

6:38pm

5:49pm

i'm going to put the hair colour remover kit in my hair now.
it is supposed to not bleach but get rid of any colour you put in your hair, artificially.
so i am hoping to get rid of all the red. red is the hardest to get out.
i will miss the red, but i can have red back any time.
then, by the time i am done with that it will be time to watch Lost.

do you think i can lose 5 pounds in 12 days?
is that possible at all?
or is that kind of pushing it?
i was hoping to be at the weight of 100 for my birthday, but i can deal with 103. even 105 would be ok.
3 pounds is doable.
i wish i liked to excercise and didn't love fattening foods :)

5:21pm

i'm back from errands.
i weighed myself today and i weigh 108. so i gained 2 pounds. rrgh.
so good thing for spring i can walk more now.
went to the drugstore and got my meds and also i bought some more hair bleach. yay!
and i guess i will struggle through those damned whitening strips for teeth because i have some from long ago and i want my teeth whiter to match my hair, but oo, i hate those strips!
but i want everything white as can be for the opening shot of my movie.
white hair, white dress, white boots, white birthday cake.
grey north dakota prairie :)
i must go in search of white boots that are cheaper then fluevog.
i bought 3 elcheapo fak silver with rhinestone butterfly hairclips because i think they would be pretty in my hair, too, on film.
it was so sunny out as i was walking. now that i am home it turned completely grey out.
bought some food, eggs, cheese, coffee, tuna.
got my dish washering liquid. i hate spending money on boring things like that.
doing laundry, load of dishes.
in a dream i finally saw how i want my hair.
i need to find someone who knows how to french braid.

please pray that my hair does not fall out after 2 years of growing it!
i have expressly grown it out for 2 years so that i could bleach it white at the end.
i remember telling sonia about this "2 year project"
and she was said "that is dedication!"
and i really expected her to be around now to help me put extensions in my hair with my long white hair mixed in.
or to dread perm my hair.
but...that as not to be....alas.
i think that was the last time i saw her, when i told her that.
sitting on her porch as she did my hair for the last time.
now here it is, 2 years later.
she would be proud of me i actually made it 2 years without cutting my hair :)
she would be so into making my hair be the shiznit for my move.
gah.


2:54pm

no time to type. too much to do.
another beautiful day so i am going to get out and do all the errands i need to do today.
go to p.o. box, bank maybe, pay rent, go to drugstore, buy some food...
this will get walking in.
and a new Lost episode tonight. yay!
after today it rains for 3 more days.

Horoscope for Aries (April 5 2006)

An exciting day! With Saturn no longer moving backwards will mean you'll no longer feel that it's all work or school, and you'll want to incorporate new and exciting interests into your life! However, with Venus moving into Pisces romantic developments are likely to become a little more challenging!

Attracting money
Valid during several weeks: This influence can have several effects, often quite subtle. It can stimulate the sexual side of existing relationships and give love relationships a greater intensity. This is because sex goes beyond the physical act and becomes a vehicle for self-transformation and inward change. A love relationship that begins under this influence will be intense throughout its duration and will have a greater impact, for better or worse, on your life than other relationships. This influence may attract money to you through your partner, a business partner or through a bank or other public financial institution, without any special effort on your part. Obviously, this is a good time to seek a loan or other financial support.


The interpretation above is for your transit selected for today:
Venus in the 8th House 8
activity period from 4 April 2006 to 27 April 2006.

and

Although circumstances are bringing uncertainty into your life, you are quietly accepting the changes with a deep understanding that goes beyond your personal needs. You are entering into a phase when your imagination can overflow into your relationships, making it difficult to separate reality from fantasy. Don't try to figure it all out now; just let your dreams lead you for a while

and

The Moon is in receptive Cancer, encouraging us to respond to events with nurturing support. Hard working Saturn ends his retrograde phase today, marking the beginning of a new cycle of production. We are ready to take our plans from the past few months and apply them to what's ahead. And although Saturn is helping us to stabilize our lives, our concerns for concrete actions are dissipated somewhat by soft Venus, who is now entering imaginative Pisces. Additionally, several unusual septiles light up the heavens with the fires of inspiration and freedom.

Wednesday
Moon in Cancer
Moon square Sun
Saturn DIRECT!
Moon Void of Course
Venus into Pisces 6:21pm
If the depths of Cancer were just too much for you take heart. The Moon shifts out of Cancer and is void of course for most of the night, like the wave receding, still that washing influence of strong emotions but a time to reflect on it. Tomorrow the moon goes into passionate Leo so take this look at what's come up the last few days.

Saturn goes Direct. So the stalled projects on the physical plane, personal and public will begin to gain momentum again. The moon is close to Saturn and will move by him tomorrow so this is a highlighted arena for the week. Survey that list of things you've been trying to get up and going, check list them, as the energy gains speed you're going to want to be sure what the next step is for them. Venus changes signs into Pisces giving us a month of her energy thought he watery 12th house. An intuitive look at endings and death. The death of parts of our lives, lives in general and the inevitable part of anything that has a beginning is that it ends and sinks into the realm of rejuvenation.

It's helpful to give some energy to all planetary ingress' into new signs. What are your 12th house placements, where is Venus in your chart? It's going to be psychic and intuitive, felt through the body and heart so you don't have to get the brain to involved.
