This is how you know when you're dreaming

Had a bit of lucid dreaming experience last night - I don't normally get these unless there's something in the dream so patently bizarre that I realize I'm dreaming. ( Details below )

Showing my heritage

Events of yesterday, at the craft supply store of record:

kittenpants: idly browsing a sale bin, pulls out a packet of brightly colored grommets. So biscuitgod says that people are putting rivets and grommets in invitations now, so that they look like hangtags. Not that they run any string or ribbon or anything through them, they just have grommets.

Me: I can think of occasions for which riveted and grommeted invitations would be entirely appropriate.

kittenpants: Yes, but if I were going to make grommeted invitations, I'd be doing it for some purpose, not because it was the trendy thing to do.

Me: Could be an industrial fetish party. That would require riveted invitations.

kittenpants: You'd send printed invitations to a fetish party? I think your Southern is showing.

Me: Right. Sorry.

PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS, Friday the 20th of August marks the occasion 3³rd birthday; and

WHEREAS, the universe has shown the considerable taste to allow me to be born under the sign of the Large Self-Absorbed Pettable Feline; and

WHEREAS, it has been demonstrated that the people in this general grouping do enjoy the activity known as FLAUNTING, herein defined as dressing up in strange garb and going forth into the realm of the mundanes in order to drink and pursue merriment and debauchery; and

WHEREAS, it is known that I harbor particular weakness for boys in eyeliner, and other such fetish types,

NOW, THEREFORE I, featherynscale, on behalf of myself and eyeliner-loving deviants everywhere, do hereby proclaim Friday, August 20th, 2004 as the occasion of the First Ever Eyeliner Flaunt, and do call upon all readers and other friendly folk in the Kansas City area and willing to travel hereto, to join me for the celebration, to dress in costumes of your choosing, so long as they include eyeliner, and to descend upon a major metropolitan shopping, dining, and drinking area in order to consume food and drink, sing dirty songs, accost waitstaff and pedestrians, and generally behave in a debauched manner, during which I intend to make an ass of myself, eat cake, and attempt to indulge as many of my fetishes as humanly possible within 24 hours. It is my further proclamation that cerunnos, diermuid, and other persons having a birthday in August should be especially invited to partake in the goings-on, and to indulge in as many of their respective proclivities as possible, providing that said proclivities do not interfere with the wearing of eyeliner.
