I just got done IMing Peaty next door...he's got the New York Times coming over this afternoon to interview him about urban farming. They're checking out the chicken coop and whatnot. Which is awesome. So why the facepalm?

Because I just finished putting up LOTS of dark and spooky laundry on the clothesline. I have a Bauhaus t-shirt, my House of Voodoo t-shirt, one black and floaty jacket and lots of black and purple skirts. I'm representing, I tellya!!

Which means, if you pick up a New York Times in the near future and open to that interview...well, you'll see my laundry flapping in the sun, getting nice and dry, somewhere in the background...


I don't know whether to be smug or embarrassed:)

Quick, run out and put up a load of Victorian undergarments!

Awesome!

It is awesome, in a "holy crap!" sort of way:)

*chuckle*

They would be so lovely with the Bauhaus t-shirt!

No no no.... the only way to achieve true balance on the line now is to make sure there's some hole-y underpants out there too!

Oh dear...my poor neighbors...my poor, very, very VERY gay neighbors, having to look at my frillies drying on the line...

I'm just cracking up here, thinking of my Jack Skellington underpants and Bettie Page bras dangling over the porch, just in line for a picture about Peaty's urban composting.*dissolved into giggles*

Oh dear. Ms Maus's dark and spooky underthings flapping around over our lovely steaming backyard fumier... way to sell the urban chicken phenomenon, NYT!

And your inappropriate Gothic phrase du jour: Maus, niu gneidiþ þuk feina niuwa swarta undarsnaga þeins, saei ufaro smiugandai dreittaskon fliugiþ?

Is this "my fancy new black underwear is chafing me?" I can barely type, I'm laughing so hard!

[jamin.everywitchway.net (from livejournal.com)]

More accurately, I'd translate it as, "Do your fancy new black underthings, which flutter above this steaming pile of manure, chafe?"

Gothic vocab of the day:

undarsnaga (n, w.m.) underthings.

smiugands (adj.) steaming.

dreittasko (n, st.f.) dung-heap, fumier, shit-pile, etc.

(smiuganda dreittakso - steaming pile of shit)

gneidan (v, st.cl. I) to chafe, to scratch.

(ita gneidiþ - it chafes; ita gnaiþ - it chafed; ita gagnaiþ - it has chafed)

Ahahahaha!

I am learning horrible, wonderful, horrible new things!! This is even better than learning how to say chupacabra in Gothic!
