Busy busy weekend, so much socialising!

Friday was spent trying to get the house in some sort of order, then out to a friends surprise 40th b'day party, which was much fun with lots of silly dancing about and so on. Tho, mindful of the plans for saturday, I was actually SENSIBLE and left at about half 12 when I could get a lift. Go me!

Saturday involved more cleaning, organising of costume and dressing up box, shopping for Party Food and picking up of ochthuit and his mate from train. And then dressing up!

I went as Medusa, cos I got a standard 'greek' costume thing and just added lots of green make up and made Hair Snakes with a combination of pipe cleaners and green gel. Got bored after about 20 minutes of fiddling so there weren't quite as many as originally intended, tho people seemed to get the idea!

Highlights included dressing tiquetoque up as a Laydee, _unhurt_ and her v. impressive costume, despite freaky FREAKY dead martens with their BEADY EYES that stared at me all night (getting them THROWN at me was not a highlight), musical interludes from Tique, Ochthuit and D. (who doesn't have an lj as far as I know), also some fine downloading of bizarre music, the potato lantern complete with FAKE tealight... and other stuff I may well have forgotten but I'm sure I'll remember when I see more photos.

Speaking of which -



Beastmaster (mistress?) Unhurt


tiquetoqueDaphne. So ladylike



Unhurt gets savaged by her own freaky dead animals (I SAID they were evil!)



Emo ochthuit tells his diary how much we hate him.



Fr. Jack, The Monk and West Belfast's only Jihad Warrior (alas the headband reading "Allah is Class" is not visible here), deep in theological discussion. I'm sure.



Potato lantern (specially made for Thesme!) - complete with FAKE tealight.



And finally me, at 5.33am (according to the timestamp) after managing to get the pipecleaners out. Alas I have none of them *in*, but I'm sure someone does...



Just In, more photos!
Tique, part of the through his transformation, and Me with snaky hair (kinda)


There no words really...





The rest of the photos are here - if I can get hold of other peoples' photos, I'll add them in there too!

Good night. Today, mostly very tired.

ETA more photos!

That's a good pic of you!

Is that your house - it's awfae purty. Ilike the fireplace with nearby folliage. (Is this dreadfully mature of me to comment on that?)

*shambles off sheepishly*

Yep that is Chez Moi, I did a picture post a few months back when I got the sofa of the house. Well downstairs, i didn't get round to tidying upstairs to do it. I should finish that off sometime ;p

Heh I am very impressed at not lookign completely smashed given it was 5.30 and there had been cider and quite a lot of Naughty Smoking going on ;)

Bloody hell!Monk of Satan!!


EVIL!!

Also I vole my pottytoe lantern. It's so potatoey and yet ominous.

Also MARTENS ROCK.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

He did make a particularly scary monk ;p

The potato lantern rocks. Hmm. I think the fake tealight might actually still be on too ;p

[lazy-hoor.livejournal.com]

Would it be bad of me to say your hair suits you like that?!

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Obviously i am DESTINED to wear a crown. Might get odd looks if it turned up to work in it tho. Could be worth trying...

*chuckles at mental image*

West Belfast's only Jihad Warrior

i still think tique was FAR too fond of his sexy mu-mu.

the marten leg rubbage hurt. them claws are sharp!

[thipe.livejournal.com]

Can I get the number of the hawt blonde bearded chick I was netsex0ring over the intarwebs?

[hellison.livejournal.com]

I'm sure that could be arranged

Also, note to self. Disinfect keyboard. And monitor. And webcam.

[thipe.livejournal.com]

You might want to clean under the desk too *beams helpfully*

[hellison.livejournal.com]

WOE!

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

next time, eat up all your mangravy like a good boy, please.

[thipe.livejournal.com]

Daphne produces MANGRAVY? :(

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

er, no I thought YOU DID ALL OVER POOR HELLISON'S CONFUSER!

[hellison.livejournal.com]

NONO, he was at his own computer, DAPHNE was at mine, as we can see here (http://eatin.fotopic.net/p35835740.html)

(woe)

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

Well in that case the mangravy warning still applies, for I have my suspicions about Daphne.

Woe and Woe and more woe.

[thipe.livejournal.com]

Hrm, perhaps "Daphne" is in fact the real Daphne's EVIL TWIN, given the evil twin beard!

[ochthuit.livejournal.com]

My sister is disappointed that there aren't enough pictures of emo me.

Gawd, my life sucks so bad!!!!!!

[(Anonymous)]

WOE they hate you so much they won't even take your PICTURE!

[ochthuit.livejournal.com]

I know, they all suck so much. Like my life.

WOE!

[hieronymousmosh.livejournal.com]

Hooray for living vicariously through other people's parties! We didn't do any costume parties this year, very disappointing.

The battle martens-as-hat is ingenious (unhurt! keep this in mind for the winter months though that might be more tardington's high fashion ways, than hers) . . . if a bit disturbing.

[mollydot.livejournal.com]

Fantastic costumes!
I especially like Daphne :-)

[hellison.livejournal.com]

I was so impressed at the lengths everyone went to! Well, except Daphne, we dressed him from Stuff i had Lying about. But he did look very... special once we'd done with him ;)

[mollydot.livejournal.com]

Special. That's a good word.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

i am sadly keen on dressing up. during my initial rush of trigun-love, i had a phone call with tardington that ended with these ominous words to me: "just so you know? if you ever cosplay? i will have to perfom an honour killing!"

re: martens - we are straying dangerously close to the point at which someone will make the 'wear the fox hat joke'. just to warn you!

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

actually, for a dressing-up-box costume, it is terribly professional drag artist looking, isn't it?

[hellison.livejournal.com]

um, if you check the comments on the photos on fotopic, i kinda already did. Sorry.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

The most worrying part is that, apart from the wig? Those are ALL things I have WORN OUT IN PUBLIC.

[hieronymousmosh.livejournal.com]

I fear that if tardington says it wrong, it's wrong. (though I love dressing up, too. see: "gothic-industrial clubbing phase" for more info.)
