O!

(a not-secret for you lovebugs?)

This entry would have been ever so slightly gloomy&doomy-toned, just a little, but really, Betsy-shaped gloom is so two weeks ago, isn't it? Instead, let's have a bit of fun! & some pink hearts simply because I'm in the mood for pink things.


♥♥♥ I finished Secret Diary of A Call Girl last night!! O, Billie Piper! HOT & TALENTED & SO.VERY.UNDERDRESSED.WHEEEEE. I MUST picspam for all of you soon! & also, there was so much Amy Winehouse played! SQUEE!

♥♥♥ Am plugging away at uploading all of the music for all of the mixes you peaches asked for! Uploading music - so tedious! But since I DO do it out of doors, perhaps I shall partake in more people watching.

♥♥♥ I discovered today, whilst cleaning our my clothes chest, that I have finally reached my goal of owning more skirts & dresses than pants! I've two pairs of pants & at least five skirts & seven or more dresses. Yay, finally! (now I just to stop wearing those pants all the time & spend the rest of the time in skirts & dresses!)

♥♥♥ Miss Penelope of Cocoa continues to be the newest source of inspiration in Betsyland. Look for yourself!

How To Be Mysterious. This article is just such a gem!

My favourite?

Sharpen up your Wit
Always stay on your toes and never be afraid to flash your dazzling wit. If you don't feel comfortable answering a question, throw out a sneaky smile and ask your company a question of your own or divert their attention to some other menial fact. The monologue?

Them: So, what's your name anyway?
You: Well, I do suppose it depends on who you ask. You know how people are these days, going by so many titles. There are names and nicknames and professional titles and pen names. My own grandfather has four different names! And I don't mean semantics like "grandpa" or "grandad" - real, legalized names!


♥♥♥ !! (& because I cannot let it slip by without saying it - how very Doctor-esque, no?)

♥ Miss Penelope's Weekly Wishes are just lovely. They make me feel utterly wistful - especially the first one! (o, I miss Ferris wheels!)

♥♥♥ I do feel as though I've linked this article here before, but nonetheless, if I have, well, it's just so amazing that I shall do it twice! An Idea, Perfectly Illustrated by the amazing miss [livejournal.com profile] galadarling! (I should really print this out twice & keep it by my vanity & in my pocket when I pick out new clothes, shouldn't I?)

♥♥♥ My dear [livejournal.com profile] velvet_midnight, this bloggie made me think immediately of you! Leaving Shangri-L.A.

♥♥♥ I SIMPLY MUST OWN THIS BOOK. I MUST.

THEY IS. They're not lacy & lovely & they don't PUFF OUT when you twirl in them! Therefore, pants = FAILTASTIC. Unless David Tennant's in them. Or John Simm. Then MAYBE, just MAYBE, pants redeem themselves just a bit.

::snuggles:: I MISS YOOOOOU LIKE ZOMG BAAAADLY. ::ish a bad friend::

::giggles:: I haven't had a chance to use it yet! SAM TYLER DOUBTS YOUR SANITY & GETS AWAY WITH IT. He can do that you know. ::nods::

Pink hearts make everything better. Pink hearts and Hello Kitty. Seriously. This is a proven fact of life. *smile giggle wink*

Pants. Feh. I live in them basically 24/7 but I'll be the first person to say that skirts and dresses are more comfortable, more fun, and more expressive.

And oooh, what a cool book!

::clings to lovely pink things & Hello Kitty:: YES THEY DO. Or at least they do in little Betsyland. ::giggles::

& eep, that's me as well - most often found in dungarees & Converse, but o, how I prefer the swirlysoft confection of skirts & dresses.

I WANT IT! ::bouncy & grabby hands::

Hey! I popped in here via a Google Alert; thank you for linking LSL!

P.S. The Alice book is worth it for eye candy alone. The writing's a little cutesy, but I generally stick to the pictures.
