I know it is totally the wrong season (for most of us), but do you like/have space to garden? If so, what do you like to grow?i have a little garden plot out front as well as a shit ton of houseplants, but i'm fairly limited on what i can grow- for indoors, it needs to be something that can handle low-to-medium light, and for outdoors it needs to be able to handle a TON of light- also, if it's gonna be alive more than a season, it's gonna have to deal with austin heat. succulents are always awesome, and i can sometimes get wildflowers and the like to do well in the early spring before they die out. would love some 'useful' herbs that can be grown inside

WHAT MAKES YOU LAUGH YOUR ASS OFF!!! the show 30 rock. katt williams. emo phillips.

 

You are meeting up with someone on a casual lunch/early afternoon thing. This person is someone you want to impress/look good for (for whatever reason, not necessarily romantic, and not necessarily for business either). What would you look like, given the contents of your wardrobe/etc? going by what's currently in my closet and pretending its early spring- i've got this gorgeous flowy white dress with a gold and blue rose print with and asymmetrical, short-in-front and long-in-back hem. simple black sandals, leafy roman headband.

 

You are to be let loose in a clothing store of your choice, to pick a full outfit, down to the shoes, the accessories, etc. and things would be altered to fit you if needed. What store would that be, and what would you look like? oh man. free people, maybe, or a really cute vintage boutique we have called Feathers. or By George. Somewhere with really unique, high-quality, usa-made or vintage or hand-made clothing. (i guess it doesn't absolutely have to be usa, but i prefer to know my stuff comes from people earning a fair wage and all that.) it's a slightly sexy but very sophisticated mini dress, not SO mini that i'd be embarrassed for my grandmother to see me in it. thick, soft, COMFORTABLE leggings and some really, really kick ass leather lace-up boots. or the perfect jeans- the 'cigarette pant' cut is by far the best thing i have ever seen on my body, and i don't find them often. i like em skinny/snug to the calf and then straight down.

 

You open a box from the post office to reveal the 3 things you want most right now. What are they? (caveats: size doesn't matter, but they have to be tangible/buyable). a blender!! a french press, single serving size. a gift certificate to amazon or half price books.

 

The end of this month I'm going to Scarefest, the big horror and paranormal con in Kentucky. (www.scarefest.com) If I were your witch, is there anything you would like from there (skull jewelry, art prints from an artist that catch your eye, etc), or anyone whose autograph or photo or such you would dig? YEAH!! i love ghosty paranormal things, AND i'm majorly homesick for kentucky. art prints would be fantastic, especially smallish things. jewelry is awesome too! i do like skulls and skeletons but i tend to like non-human ones- i have a bird skull necklace that's my favorite thing in the world.

 

What is your holy grail "I'd kill to just have one drop in an imp" bpal scent? orange, or antique lace. but honestly i'm the type to try to avoid falling in love with things i'll NEVER be able to get a bottle of for under a million dollars.

 

Are there any existing Weenies that you have your eye on, but haven't gotten around to getting? i'm going to order evening stock before it goes down, but i'm waffling on boo. i need some opinions in the recc thread first.

 

if you wear earrings, do you have pierced ears? Yes! i have stretched ears, 00g, but i love to wear dangly earrings through my tunnels- the kind on hooks/wires.

 

love you witch!
