evelyn@weirdtales.net — Wed, 14 May 2008 05:18:41 GMT

Today I was told that I do not dress like a real person.

A pal of mine told me

" I dress like I am in some indy film, Vertgo comic or anime where after the film/book comes out every one trys to cos plays it at cons to see if other people get the refrence."

is this true?

I think I dress like a real person.

I like my long red scarf.

NEW YORK TIMES BABY.........

...................You all owe me your souls!
.........................................YES you DO!

OK this was over a months worth of work and I wish that everyone who I had them talk to got in it, but still
This is not the first or the last time my efforts to get people in print have succeeded!

There will be more for the good eggs out there, that I swear.

(I put some links to people who should have been in this article on my site so you will get your nod as it is in the article)

Ruth is awesome

P.S.
I do not sell ads for Steampunk Magazine. I don't know where she got that. I gave her all four hard copies of the magazine with Magpie's email so she would write about it and help them out more... but on the bright side it got a nod in the NY Times, and that does not suck.

Oddest 1930's thing I have ever seen..

Vintage Dog Video - Queenie in Trouble

Something from my head that is very true.

evelyn@weirdtales.net — Thu, 01 May 2008 20:00:38 GMT

My friends, remember this line:

"Tis better to be a lion then a mouse."

Allways and forever never let a bully or jack ass push you around or make you fearfull of speaking the truth.

If you keep your mouth shut about things that are wrong, worse things happen and then nothing can be done.

But then again, I am the type of person who would fip off the firing squad just before they put the blindfold on me so....

My head hurts....................

That is all.

I can run 9 blocks in high heels as if they where sneakers.

evelyn@weirdtales.net — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 00:51:41 GMT

I think I might be sick ,This sucks as I just was getting better.

I will reply to email be for I sleep as I need too.

I do still feel like I am slamming my head in to a wall often and not getting any where.

I am going to need to find replacement fabric for that coat as I have no clue where the good rare Chinese silk went off to. That house ate it , would seem its not good at all.

Harvy the bunny is ok but he is starting to show that hes not a yong bunny any more.

Every one who came out for Saturday I love you all.The ones who ate sushi with us you guys rule .I am sorry I fell asleep kinda.

There is talk of my stupid steady day job closing in August or September that is not good as that's how I get health and is kinda just enough money so I can kinda keep afloat, just kinda.I would wish to quit it then have it close.

Need to get a buch of orders in the mail and the lippy swap, she is going to love what she is getting.

Lets hope things get better and I do not get kicked in the metapahoric junk by something.

(what I really wish I could do tonight )
I want large amounts of sushi ,as I watch unrated Hannibal and curl up with the huge squashy pillow of doom on my big happy day bed in my living room.That is what I wish to do the most....and drink sleazier water mixed with orange juice (don't knock that it's a kick ass drink).

I feel old today.

Random over tired ramblings of an Evelyn

evelyn@weirdtales.net — Sat, 05 Apr 2008 05:11:20 GMT

I am so tired, been up since 5 after sleeping for two hours.
Did work type things and then did a mountain of email and still have more to do.

Last weekend was good, fun and helpful to a great deal of people but did in fact kick my ass health wise. I will be fine and am not going to die but I was such an ill breathing zombie for a few days after the fact. Too much too fast but I would so do it again. But going out and physically doing things instead of just sending out emails to make things happen(Like I have been doing since sickness) will go on. Doc says I am still doing ok and no permanent damage so SCORE for me!

I will get back to you.... If you can read this it means I am just digging through all the email and you will get a reply sooner than latter. If you can't read this then, well, I am probably ignoring you due to you being someone who's odd and smells of cabbage.

Yes, I am very over tired and to that very silly point where I kinda just talk and hope it makes some sort of sense.

I had an observation when I was tired:
"Every time someone talks about "Sky Pirates" all I can think about is D&D and their Eberron setting, which is all very high fantasy (specifically a high fantasy version of the pulp fiction genre, not Victorian steampunk). But they should have fun with it....

Or Stardust, which is straight up high fantasy.

But using "steampunk" as a buzz word does sell records so its all good."

It's from this thread:
http://community.livejournal.com/steamfashion/580046.html?view=9374926#t9374926

Admit it I am hysterical and am far too much of a book worm that I know these things or think these things.

I saw copies of Deathrock Magazine in every Borders and Barnes & Noble I was in today. We were hunting for a book for a project and they sent us all over the place so I was in a grand total of like 10 book stores today. Everyone had copies. Patty and Alex should be proud: it really pops off the shelf. If my phone's battery had not died due to using it too much today I would have snapped a photo, and at the very last Borders they had the Book so this was good.

And umm if someone wished to get me these shoes in a 9, I would not cry about it at all... in fact I would wear them and dance in them for you....

You can see more of them at this link..

No fancy HTM for you tonight!
Ok thats enough babble from me... to bed I go....

There are times in life when this would work

evelyn@weirdtales.net — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 19:58:07 GMT

evelyn@weirdtales.net — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 16:58:26 GMT

Read this and say its crap or not...

Totaly work safe..

evelyn@weirdtales.net — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 17:30:34 GMT

I can go out..so we can go to this...and get to give some one a ride up.
So this should be fun and I hope the car is ok as it sits out in the parking lot..

Whooo Hoo!

still have no clue what I am going to wear

FRISKY Dingo

evelyn@weirdtales.net — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 04:27:22 GMT

Is the win!

So I should be well and healthy in time

evelyn@weirdtales.net — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 06:50:45 GMT

To go to this..

Should we go to this? My DR should give me the green light to get to go out and do stuff at that point.
It would be partly to pick up paper work from some one who's going to be there..
But would it be worth the treack?
I also see some people we know are going to be doing something with the event..If you go you guys need any help? We all know no matter what I get board unless I am doing something so ya.
