Sock Garters, My Room, and Glasses

A lot has changed since i last posted, one big thing is that im back doing costuming work. Im working on JPAS' Petite Rouge production, very fun and the costumes are pretty amazing.

fall has finally come to New Orleans. My roommates are back the a/c is off. It feels wonderful and friends are on their way back. best of all, it also means its time for socks and sock garters. how i start missing those in the summer. i made these ones tonight and i really love them! hopefully ill have better pictures up soon and you can get your own in my etsy shop as soon as i do that.





Also, I'm moving out of the Shack. It's been a good run but really i'd like to live inside a house! not on a concrete slab. It's got its perks, like being able to be really loud and play ace of base at top volume late at night, but i dont like the mold in my sewing machine oil. wtf? so here's pictures of my happy abode, soon to be a memory just like all my other rooms.






ALSO its pretty amazing how not being able to see close up makes you NEVER want to do things like sew, or read, or write at all. Thank god for these guys because now im back at what i love.


xoxo


PS. and just because i miss richie.

eyesight and mercury

Well, my eyesight is going. I used to take such pride in my eagle eyes, but now. well. since Saturday my vision has gotten incredibly worse. the headaches too. it doesn't help that I've been out of work for a couple months and once i pay rent in a couple of days i will have 20 dollars.

I found a place here in New Orleans that helps poor uninsured people like me.
St. Thomas Medical Center
529-5558

It's only 20 dollars to see the Ophthalmologist and then 20 dollars cash for a pair of glasses.

At lease the headaches will stop even though they will be butt ugly charity glasses. oh well, i guess you have to do what you have to do.
