Overworked

Sorry for the lack of updates - I've been on a Rota of Doom so have been mostly at work (and with the added stress of having to learn how to use new software.)

Still I did have a night out last Saturday, we had planned to go to the Alternative 80's night, but the venue had decided to squeeze a party in aswell. So we left for the White Hart in search of space and seating.

I'm currently trying to work out what to wear come the summer - so far most of my girlmode stuff is wintery (warm and snuggly) so I think I'm going to have to find some more summery stuff

Some Glamour Goals

This is really for my reference and I hope to tick them off as time goes by... Most of these I want to do in time for October's WGW. If not sooner :)
  • Get rid of my boi hair - now I'm more willing to show more flesh my arms are a little embarrassing
  • Get my brows done so they look more feminine, I'm a bit too skittish to do my own!
  • Work more on the makeup skills so I don't end up looking overdone.
  • Work on a daytime look that isn't wrapped up in many coats/hats & scarves.
Thinking a bit more, I'm less worried about being read then I was in the past. I might get some glances, but are they of admiration or fear? Hopefully the former, if its the latter then its their problem!

A Busy Weekend

I've had a fantastic weekend :)

Saturday I had to forgo the Pride workshop (probably a good thing) to pick my Gran up from the station and do family stuff

In the evening I glammed up in a short skirt, flame print pvc corset, new knee high boots* and a skinny top for Black Catz in Plymouth with Miss Dru. The club was very busy and I ended up dancing a lot with very pretty people. So much Egoboo! Finally got home about 5:15 :)

Its interesting to compare Plymouth clubbing with Exeter, In Plymouth the night has lots of publicity, is in a proper (albeit small) club in the city centre and is open up to 6am. The Exeter equivalent is a general metal night, in a Pub function room, a mile from the city centre, with limited promotion and it kicks out at midnight. I know Plymouth is bigger, but Catz is a niche Goth night - the Metal night is in C103 - using all of the huge three room club! I've seen smaller places do similar standards, even Truro (a fifth of the size of Exeter) had a monthly metal night in a proper club (till the venue went tits up)

Talking to a nice Transsexual lady on Saturday also yielding a very amusing piece of information. There is a monthly Tranny Club (not nightclub I hasten to add) at Clyst St George Village Hall. How Random!

On Sunday night I had a night of Wine and Wii. I'm starting to get a liking for Kirby…

 *The boots arn't that new, but I've not had a chance to wear them out until now
