platform Pumps with a wide (Flared) heel and at least a 2 1/2 lift
More Velvet anything

Wish List:
The nerve to buy that "Special Toy"
At least one more Bringin to bring to the fire.

I took a close look at the picture again and carefully read your comments. I thought it was like a belt-apron over a manskirt. Umm, now I understand the 'tan' part :oops: Oh my again! I dunno if I have the balls to do that :)

Sunblock for your heinie. You most certainly have the balls for it, they'll be shaded.

Oh honey. You don't wear undies under boy shorts, you wear 'em rough and raw.

MyLarry has PVC shiny black booty shorts, he's slim enough to wear the girl sizes from Hot Topic clearance rack.

If you take a 34 trouser, then yeah I have some that might fit :lol: in colors I don't like that have never been worn, so, no disrespect to your lovely wife.


Just FYI, underwear is supposed to peek out the waistband these days, in fact some of mine have a cute lil ribbon at the center back which is meant to be seen. But I am keeping those!

Picked up a red crushed-velour-on-the-outside-shiney-satiny-on-the-inside-scalloped-collared-overlay cape at a garage sale - $2

I think it may have been part of a pretty elaborate devil costume - now to find appropriate horns/trident.

Also, a baby snuggie replete with a stuffed-toy-doggie-hood, faux collar and mechanism in one paw that goes "woof! woof!" when pressed -$2 @ Tues Morn

The hood fits on my head so that the dog face hovers right over my own, the "collar", pulled over the head makes a perfect chin strap, the rest or it lays down my back sort of like one of the desert things that keep the sun off the back of your neck.

I think I may have to keep my eyes peeled for on-the-make furries, though.

I also picked up an awesome huge distressed leather satchel type bag at a garage sale last week (coincidently also $2). My original intent was to use this as a stylish tool bag for my deep-playa placed installation but after a conversation with ARTery this week, I'm leaning towards making this an in camp installation rather than deal with mitigating some significant moop/safety issues if left unattended. I'll still use the bag though.... hey the tools aren't going to walk themselves from the vehicle to the in-camp location, now are they?

Nice coat.

I just ordered mitten clips for mine. I've had it four years now, but I'm hoping the clips will hold it up when I'm on my bike.

I Spit Lentils on my key board! fer real.

I was out shopping for Skanky-Spankies today. all the "girl" sizes were way to tight in the nads. (duh)

then I got online and started looking for "Full figure lingerie"
All I can say is what a bunch of shit! I saw so many pictures of models that were obviously stretched so the picture was narrow and tall.

really ! why do we tolerate this? Fuck sexism and the money grubbing cunt he rode in on!

Still looking for Skanky-Spankies... pink no frills

In the continuing search for a decent thrift store, visited a Goodwill in Delaware yesterday. Overall dissapointing, but I did find a nice paisley skirt and purple crushed velvet dress.

Plus a bunch of interesting books.
