sorcyressBecause I do love me some random stupid postings.
Thoughts while packing for NEFFA:
I don't...need...*all* my skirts, do I? But do I need pants? I mean, besides for working tech. No, not really, since I pretty much exclusively wear skirts for dancing, and that's sorta what NEFFA is about and All That. So, I need skirts, and lots of them, in case I get bored in the middle of the day and need to spontaneously change1, right?
Nonono, I don't need *all* of them. Gods, I own...what, nineteen skirts? I mean, even removing all the skirts that I wouldn't dance in leaves me with...eight.
...five is a nice compromise from eight, right?
***
Bandanas2! Hippies wear bandanas, right? And I'm kinda a bit of a hippie, only without any of the drugs or sex (meaning: not actually a hippie ;D) And NEFFA is kinda like a hippie festival. So THEREFORE, I should totally wear a bandana all weekend.
Hmm, I wonder what my bandana options are? I also wonder why I don't wear them more often, since they keep my hair out of my face, and look bitchin', and I enjoy them. *gatheres bandana's.
...I own eleven bandanas. Wait, where's my Team Greykell one? I own twelve bandanas. Why the *hell* don't I wear these every damn day?
*insert a dialogue re: bandanas that sounds rather like the dialogue I just had arguing about how many skirts to bring. Settle on the arbitrary number of four. Try to decide which four. Debate for a while about which of the brightasfuck orange, the tye-dyed sublime green, and the really nice comfy brown one with my moms maiden name sewn in the corner to not bring. (The other two are my Nigel Sade pirate bandana, which is pretty much always a given, and I totally feel in the mood for bringing my Shadowposse bandana, because dude, you can't go wrong with basic black.) Eventually decide that the orange one is not as comfortable as the other two, even if it's brightasfuck orange.*

Soyeah. I have skirts, I have some shirts that will probably look good with the shirts, and I have about three plain black tank tops, which is probably the most universally crucial article of clothing in my entire damn wardrobe, because they look good with everything. Shit man, I am totally packed!
Alis: [without even looking up from her magazine] Tights.
...
I hate you all. *goes rooting around in her top draw of delicate underthings, also, socks*
Alis: Yeah, you need some of those delicate underthings too.
Gabriel: Can we laugh at her for calling them delicate underthings?
Alis: Considering that she owns maybe half a dozen articles of clothing total that I would dare to describe as delicate...yes.
Gabriel: *points, laughs*
Yeah, see above note about hating you all.

Right! A couple pairs of tights, and some socks for when I'm not wearing tights, and underwear, and bras, and a swimsuit for hottubbing! I am totally set!
...I have too much clothing and must work on decreasing those numbers.
>.> <.<
*adds W/IFS to the packing list when no one is looking*
RIGHT! I have class in...*counts* eight hours. Time for sleepings.

MOOP!
1: I had pretty much my entire wardrobe of clothing I regularly wear at Arisia, because I was going back to collage as well as conning. I think I wore something like a dozen different outfits over four days of con. I am kinda a clothes horse sometimes.
2: Keira, I hope you appreciate that I kept trying to write 'bandana's' and kept going back and fixing it.

on 2008-04-23 08:57 pm (UTC)I once pissed off some chick in an online forum by pointing out that some people think of hippies as more than innocent, natural types. She freaked and told me that painting all hippies with the same drug doing, sex having, violent protesting brush was the same as blaming all germans for the holocaust. I was like, no, saying that hippies are often thought of that way is more like blaming all nazis for the holocaust even if they never set foot in a camp. (Not that it's really like either since I was just pointing out a fact, not trying to create a similie involving germans and hippies.)
Anyhow, don't worry, I won't sic the crazy lady on you or anything. It'll be our secret. ;)
