... sauce and the GWO's redoubtable cherry clafoutis). And then after that , I was planning on hitting Bear Night and had invited a few fellow attendees for drinks. Most bagged, sadly, but aadroma compensated by bringing along a whole freakin' entourage; monshu 's ex-roommate showed his class by taking the impromptu drinking party in stride. When the rest of us left for the bar ...
... vs. Bears. I haven't read the editorial, and unless someone has a printed or scanned copy of it online they can email to me, I doubt that I will ever read it. I caught wind of it through aadroma 's LJ, and I understand what the article was about. What's interesting to me is that I look at the Bear magazine website and it talks about what's in the issue. Here's the blurb that makes me ...
So this is the outfit I wore -- with modifications -- to orious ' birthday party, which was a "purple themed party". musikub told me I should post these here too. And yeah, I've gotten an unusual amount of mileage from that monocle! My dressertop, scattered with random items. The Polaroid is of Gary, my first BF. You have to love the bacon & judaica fusion going on here...
Marc, AKA bootglove , passed away earlier today. He had a series of health issues and was awaiting a transplant, but this didn't come in time. It's so surreal for me to think of Marc being gone, for Marc had been one of the most consistent faces in my post-coming out life, and it was always a pleasure to see him at a variety of functions. He was one of the first people I met who ...
Last night was just insane, meaning Multilingual Monday got skipped. Boo me, I know. But hey, what better way to make up for it, than posting pictures of men I find hot? ^_- BRYANT REEVES. Yes, he was at one time well-known for being a professional basketball player, but hasn't been playing the game for quite a while now. And apparently, in that period of time that he hasn't been playing...
...way. The true surprise highlight to the weekend, however, was having aadroma crash chez nous for a few hours. We had no idea... (as well anyone might). Figuring there was an off chance aadroma would know our brunch guests, I told him their names....remarking, "You'll never guess who we had over yesterday. aadroma !" Pause, flash of recognition. "I guess the the two of you...
Being a linguaphile can be downright lonely at times. I saw the game above, Kobun Kanbun DS , for the Nintendo DS, which teaches and drills on use of older/obsolete characters and Classical Chinese marked with kanbun , which indicated how to reorder a Chinese sentence and pronunciation of more obscure characters, for Japanese readers/speakers. Works were written in kanbun were fairly ...
One of my biggest complaints about the Rosetta Stone series was that it was very cookie-cutter, and more unique aspects of a language were ignored when a cookie cutter format was decided upon, and thus focus on things that might help people learn Romance languages, didn't help anyone learning a language like Korean, and that hurt the effectiveness of the software. Sadly, that's just ...
So I've been looking at other places to procure Victorian style clothing, and found a place called River Junction which has some nice stuff, and I noticed that they're just a state away in Iowa. On top of that, the area has a historical district with a period-style bed and bath and saloon AND an event called Traders Jubilee , which looks like a Ren Faire for those into the late 1800s. I'd...
