a fragment from boston

[egypturnash]

During my trip to Boston, when we went out on Saturday with Chris, we wandered through a costume shop. We were really, really tempted by a white/black/pink cat mask that really, really worked on me, but didn't quite do it. And then there was this... sparkly top hat... that made me look like a refugee from a production of Cabaret. I was in the front with Chris trying it on, and had to show it to Kin and Rik. Rik was fooling with a plastic AK-47 and a bandolier of bullets.

I stole the bandolier. It... kinda worked.



ps. the shirt is either Rik or Kin's; they both say it belongs to the other one. It used to be white, I think, but now it's this faint pink. I wore it to keep from getting more burnt by the unexpectedly heavy sunshine...

Someday I'm gonna make one of those with nitrous canisters.

Full ones.

You look like an enforcer for the glitter junta. You should get an AK-47 and put ton ton chan stickers all over it.

One of my favorite pictures of you. Insert Hakim Bey quote about taking our pistols to bed. :)

Oops. That's me up there, as you probably guessed already. <3<

I don't know the quote, unfortunately. I haven't had a chance to go digging for TAZ on the net yet.

But... zap. ♥

maybe its just me being bad, but the hat makes me think of Columbia from RHPS..

Yeah. All I need is a little hole in the right place in the shirt, and nothing beneath it...

IIRC, it wasn't so much that the cat mask didn't work on you, it just turned out to be filthy because they don't take good enough care of their stock. :p

Yeah, exactly. If every single one on the rack hadn't had weird grime stuck on it, I think we pretty much would've walked out of there with the materials for a cat-toy that night.
