blaquewraith's PhotoBlog

Experimenting with photo blogging at the moment. Set up an account with Yahoo's Flickr which allows you to have an RSS feed of your photos. From that I've created a LiveJournal syndicated account.

Flickr has a very convenient Web Publishing wizard for Windows XP so I can rapidly upload photos to the blog.

Waiting for first refresh but should hit soon.

Bedroom etcetera

Nearly done with bedroom. Had a lot of stuff to sort out. Some to go over to Finglas, some for charity shop & some for attic.

Very happy that lady_bastet got her promotion, of course. Now onwards to me getting permanancy in work.

DJ'd on the weekend which went well. Jumped a bit quickly from trad to industrial but no technical hiccups. The flyers from Unscene magazine went down well. Think people picked them up rather than them being thrown out. Will inquire with Forbidden Plant & Tower Records if they'll stock it.

More Decor

Still working on Tasha's bedroom. Have 2 walls fully done in cream & 1 in purple requiring a second coat & another wall to finish.

The new bed should be with us tonight or tomorrow evening so all in all nearly done. Yay!

It's taken a while but I like to do a good job on prepping & painting the walls.

In other news, I've got Tasha's Xmas digital camera working as a webcam so we can use it on MSN Messenger & such.

Pierced Again

Got my ear pierced again over the weekend. lady_bastet was getting hers done so I figured what the hell.

Got another along the top of my ear. According to the bloke, my last one wasn't done very well & has settled badly :(

Spirit of Burlesque

Myself, pearcider & purple_beast went to the Spirit of Burlesque show last night in Crawdaddy.

When we first arrived, we were concerned if there'd be enough people to cover costs but it filled up well before the show. Crawdaddy is a nice venue as the bar is modern & quite spacious. Not quite the theme of the event but a good venue in general & they had a DJ playing swing, rock n' roll, etc. anyway. The stage area inside did seem a little small though.

Enough of that, onto the eye candy :P There was a 4 cute usherette girls & another few girls in corsets & bustles wandering about. One girl was going around with the albino python again which is always cool. Just before the show they had an Indian dancer who did one dance.

We moved inside to the stage area & grabbed a table near the front. After a bit, Urban Voodoo Machine came on. They were excellent, really bringing up the mood. After a few songs, they broke for a bit & The Kittie Kittie Kan Kan girls came on & did the can can (bit cramped on the stage). The band came back on for some more songs then Cherri Shakewell did her thing. There was a bit of swing dancing to follow while the band took another break. Finally the band finished up with 3 or 4 more songs.

Bought a 5 track CD of the band & took about 90 photos. Great night & will make sure I catch more of the burlesque nights from now on.
