& if I may, I'd like to wave hello & give lots of hugs to my new friend
::twirls around:: So! Today was the monthly SF Browncoats meetup, i.e, what I look forward to every month, so YAY! & a good time was had by all.
I'm currently looking on Etsy.com at all of the corsets & such for sale - I think I'm going to eventually buy myself a real corset, since I've wanted one for a while now. I just need to find one that fits & that I can kind of afford. Here are some of the ones I was looking at.
Blue satin corset with feathers - O THIS ONE IS SO PRETTY! It's very can-can dancer-esque & I love the shade of blue! & possibly, I could afford it.
Custom Civil War corset - this one is the one I may cave & get, because it's the most practical (eeeek, that awful word!) & because it reminds me of one I've seen Melora Creager of Rasputina in. (Melora's corsets are so pretty!) This one I could wear with my jeans or under a coat & the price is quite nice. My only quibble is that it's so plain looking! But I could be satisfied if I got it in black, I think.
Deep red silk embroidered Strumpet wearable art corset - I think I'm in love with this one! I WANT. BAD. If I wore that I don't think I'd feel ugly for a second!
Black floral corset - O my god. If I saved my money for a few weeks, I could easily buy this one! It is possibly the sexiest article of fashion I have ever seen & I seriously think I may buy it. It's so. beautiful. I think even I could pull it off!
Steel Boned Corset Grey Cotton w/Black PVC trim - This one I like, but I'm not too sure about - it looks a little too fetish-y for this girl! It is pretty though & the price is very reasonable for me, but I'm not sure if I'd be comfortable wearing it outside! ::giggles::
Plastic Boned Lavender Brocade Corset - This one is really nice & a very good price too! Though I'm not sure if it would fit me - it says it can be made for 32A-36C sizes & I'm, well, I'm a bit bigger than that, but I might be able to wriggle into it!
Sweet Corset - That is just the CUTEST thing ever! It's so sweet & adorable, it's almost Sweet Lolita-style, in a way.
White Corset - this one's simple, but I do like it.
Sparkle Corset - I like this one! It's sexy but not too over the top, I think.
& though this isn't a corset, I WANT IT ANYWAY OMG: Vintage black slip - okay, that would make a PERFECT dress. I don't know how it would look with wings though - I think it may look kind of silly, but maybe I'm wrong?
& this one's silly & cute & I thought

Comment and I'll pick seven of your icons, and then you will explain why you love/are using the icon (who doesn't love talking about their icons, seriously) and then post your explanation/this meme in your journal for other people to squee about their icons, and basically it will be a huge squeefest of love and 100x100 square pixels.
I am SO down with that!
So, she picked these beauties out!

This is my icon for moments when I'm so pissed off I can barely speak. (YES, IT HAPPENS!) It's also one of my favourite Daniel scenes from one of my favourite episodes, namely One False Step - I ♥ watching Jack & Daniel bitch at each other! ::giggles::
Keywords: miscellaneous ;; kitty's rockin' out!
HEE! I love this icon - it's sort of an in-joke for me &

Ah, I like this icon. It's the one I use in moments of extreme Sam-related flail. Isn't she pretty?
Keywords: lya ;; beautiful peace ;; spacefae
I ♥ this icon because I ♥ Lya so much. The Nox are one of my favourite alien races on SG-1 & Lya is just so pretty & peaceful & dreamy - she's true spacefae! I'm actually using this as my MSN icon right now. Lya♥♥♥♥

FOR THE MOMENTS WHEN THE WRITERS ON ANY OF MY SHOWS FAIL BEYOND ALL COMPREHENSIBLE LEVELS.
& those were my icons!
I found out last night that Emilie Autumn's Opheliac - the double disc version & several of her other albums - are available on iTunes. Whee! Lucky for me I haven't spent all of my gift cards yet!
& now I think I'm going to return to corset/crinoline/tutulike skirt hunting, buy some music on iTunes, drool over that fucking beautiful goddess-worthy corset some more & maybe comment & read some Jack/Daniel! ::spins all around & makes little bubbly hearts a la Delirium::
& if I do get around to making my Daniel mix? This song will most likely be on it.

McShep. Cause true love is poking him in the head when you think you're suffering from a replicant induced hallucination. :D
VALA IS FRIGGIN AWESOME. And I heart Claudia Black to death, she is one GORGEOUS woman! :D
DANIEL IN HIS 'O RLY?' FACE.
DAVID HEWLETT AND HIS INFLATABLE DALEK. DAVID, HOW ARE YOU SO AWESOME?!
THE WORD THAT MADE FANGIRLS EVERYWHERE BURST WITH GLEE!
Dean, the reson why everyone always assumes you're gay is cause you ARE. Srsly.
Also, you are welcome to gank my Daniel/Jack icon! :D I've made it as part of a HUGE SG-1 icon post that I started when S10 ended (so yeah, more than six months ago) and never finished. :/ I really *should* finish that, come to think about it.

Date: 2007-10-19 03:06 am (UTC)(wait, what season does she come in during? Is it seven or beyond? Or does she come as sort of a 'package deal' with Cameron Mitchell? [the OTHER one I know nothing about but am oddly kind of drooling over anyway!])

Date: 2007-10-19 05:12 pm (UTC)(she made a guest appearance in S8, and did about half of the S9 episodes, but really only comes on as a regular in S10. :D Cameron came on at the beginning of S9)
