WELL, I did the same thing this year that I did last year AT the same time mind you- I said I wouldn’t torture myself with so much fun in one day but I couldn’t help myself. Last year I did a theme park for 6 hours before heading to a 5 hr evening vending event at obscure. Oopsie I did it again. I did the same thing in the same day but with less help and buffer time because I’m a die hard masochist.
Welcome back to my fun jewelry blog where I talk about the business, events, and all silliness surrounding it. Lemme say how grateful I am to the Queens (Lilith, Cherry, LYDIA) for hosting such a fun time. The balance of music, dance, art and performance is set just right . Liliths Ursula number from the little mermaid was fucking incredible and stole my heart. The drag here is extra weird and that’s how it should be. Little mermaid was my #1 movie as a kid and now at 38 I feel deeply see and validated in my tastes in art and theater.
I was not in my best form that evening as I was literally straight back from a day at STORY BOOK FORREST with 2 sets of 4 yr old twins. Truly. Why do I do this I do not know but I have a hard time saying “No” to anything and everything I love in the name of “fun”. I also turn into a literal potato past 9:30pm. Its terrifying to be in public when that starts to happen with no support friend. Werewolf would be cooler but im just a werevegetable.
It was quieter that night since 1 million events were happening simultaneously around the city but I we still had a decent turn out. I love the scene here and want to support whenever I can. Vending is the only way I get out past 5pm anymore without kids. Sold a few trinkets and the charm bracelets seem to be going over nicely.
I came home at 3am completely dead. I wasn’t in my body the following day whatsoever. And the day after. I forget I’m not 21 and that most women in my position don’t generally torture themselves by trying to do both full time mom and job/ party. I love it so much though. I can suffer myself one night a year to be late night fabulous.
