I take back everything I said about the lightning storm, it was lovely.

FYI, if UPS has a box of yours and they are being fuckups about delivering it and you have to go get it and then they are mean to you and not helpful at the distribution center and tease you and crap and you're a girl and the box is big enough -- burst into tears and tell them it's something wedding related. I dunno, sometimes I'm just inspired. Sick and wrong I know. But it worked.

So the coat. The coat is AMAZING. Beautiful work, beautiful fit and not just cool geeky, but so perfect that if I don't wear my hair up with it, it's actually intensely, intensely disturbing. I can't do it justice. I mean, you have no fucking idea. It's... an utter menace.

I am so pleased.

ETA: Also, I've written about it a hundred times, which makes coming home and actually having to fight with all those little buttons seriously bizzareo. You do, for the record, have to stop in the middle of the room and just be very nimble and efficient about it because if you try to multitask, you fail. It's exactly like I imagined.

Soon, I promise. I have to get someone with a camera to do it. But it's seriously jaw dropping. I scared myself in it.

Perhaps you can hit up some of the photographers you've worked with for a TFP shoot?

Yeah, but what's the pitch? "Um, I bought this thing, and it makes me look like Snape from Harry Potter at like age 19, and you need to take pictures of me so fan girls can drool?"

Exactly, yes.

I am DYING to see this. Because you know, coat!

By the way, that gorgeous art site seems to be gone. I am so so sad.

I am sad too. But I bed if you post somewhere conspicuous asking about the Japanese fan art where Snape is a cat, someone will have it saved on their harddrive. Because the Interent is badwrong.

Hahah, oh dear. It may come to that.
I have been percolating ideas while I watch random Al Pacino movies. I think I've settled myself into a time frame and basic idea. Now to actually start writing. Argh.

Heh. I salute you for the wedding-tears manipulativeness.

And eagerly await the coat pictures.

Bwaaah-hahahahaha! I love it.

Even without seeing pictures, I know that coat looks just incredible on you.

*grins* And I know what you mean about how odd it is to wear the clothes you've described; the first time I had the full Jedi gear on I found that, like good clothing should, it shaped the way I moved and even how I felt.

I have a (fat) friend who claims to be "expecting" when she needs to use the bathroom and a restaurant or store won't let her. Then, of course, they have no problem and bathrooms suddenly appear where once they had to simply pee in a bottle

COoooooooooooooOOOOooooOOOoooOOOoooOOooat!

COAT!

Is a button hook just for shoes, or coats also? I imagine you would be some sort of 19th century slacker if you needed a hook for your coat.

Also: disturbing how?

When you see the pictures you'll understand. Evocative is far, far too mild a word.

I put the thing on on the subway coming back from UPS and heading out to meet friends, and it so alarmed me, that I _had_ to put my hair up.
