Over Obsessed

I could quite literally post an Amanda Palmer lyric for ever single problem I go through. Or for every event in my life. Or just for my feelings about certain things. I fear my obsession is a bit too strong, but I always used to envy people who had such strong feelings for something that they could let it consume a part of their life.

The last obsession I had that was this big was my obsession with Buffy the Vampire Slayer (because I totally got over that and wasn't about to splurge all my money on a big book of Buffy fandom that I saw at B&N)

I also really want a bustle-styled coat. And more striped vests like the one I got at Wet Seal. And a few more corsets and some short saloon girl styled skirts. I want to make them. Not the stockings... Maybe attach garter straps to the inside of my skirts though.

I have a vision, of a semi-cropped vest, wide and shapely V neck (I can't stand the straight ones) a little bit of a hood to protect hair from the rain, with a little ruffle along the edge. And a small bustle shape on the back. The whole thing would be black and white striped (or solid black or white or I don't even know) and it would be FABULOUS And I'd wear it fucking everywhere. I think I'm going to Sharpie up a picture of it and post it here and on dA.

I have 2 followers on Twitter. That in itself amazes me. I still only have a few blog readers though.

I suppose if I got much more than that I couldn't keep the title as "shit no one cares about" right?

I'm going to start putting tags for my entries. Maybe they'll be found.

my socks/hair/belly fat/and guitar

Sorry for the lack of pictures on my posts lately.

I have this HUGE obsession with socks. Some people have shoes issues, some just like cute clothes... but i LOVE thigh high socks. I mean... I have a shoe and cute clothes issue too, but I bargain shop for those. I just spent $6 a pair for 3 pairs of thigh highs. Free shipping though, and no tax... wasn't expecting that.

It's all from this site called Sock Dreams that I've been drooling over for AGES.

I've been wanting some O socks (which I assume the O is for Over-the-knee) and they have the most wonderful colors.

got these lovely gold ones, because I need to brighten my happy self up a bit, even if I'm gonna be wearing black.
O Basics

these are called O Brights. They're the same style as the O socks, but they have some different colors. I'm trying to stray away from basic colors or red and green and trying to get into the unique colors that I really love, like I was talking about in my other entry.
O Brights

and of course, I nearly shit myself when I saw these... Teal. fucking teal socks. This pair is the actual reason that pushed me to buy them this time. I mean, come on, TEAL!
O Basics



oh how cute, I just found these... I'd probably have bought them if I saw them earlier... maybe not though. I'm not as rainbow colored in what I wear anymore. Maybe rainbow stripes, but that's about it

in OTHER news, I dyed my bangs blue. I went on a limb and tried the Color Fiend brand, because it was on sale at Hot Topic. I'm not really impressed to be honest. It's uneven, dark in some parts, light in the others. The lighter color is kinda teal though, but I hate uneven hair color.

before and after

I've also decided that if I do end up moving into Brandon's house, I'm gonna get my ass up and work out. I have a bike there, so I can ride a bit every morning. I weighed myself, I'm 149. almost 15 pounds more than I was when school let out. I won't make excuses for myself anymore. I just gotta get out and work on it. My actual size hasn't changed much though. Hips are still 40 inches, waist still 29... I think I'm carrying the new weight on my thighs, upper arms and (fuck-it-all) my face. I can do this though. I haven't given up on myself.

Also got a guitar. Fender Starcaster. the picture doesn't do the color any justice. It's such a deep dark blue that it's almost purple. Mirror pick guard (with a little crack at the last knob) and there's a little bit taken out of the bottom, like you can see in the picture. I don't mind though. Learning has been really fun.


I named her Fendi McFenderson. original of me, right? Don't worry, it's just a temp name, even my bass has a real name. So my Guitar will too, once I think of one.

btw, here's a picture of me wearing a beany.


much love <3 style="font-weight: normal;">
