Everybody says it so they had to name it twice.

" Then, as I walked down Second Avenue towards St. Mark's Place,
where all those people sell used books and other junk on the street,
I saw my penis lying on a blanket
next to a broken toaster oven."

-King Missile

So yeah. Looks like rather suddenly inefficiency and I are going to NYC this weekend. Rather, Thursday through Sunday - can you say "Brooklyn, Brooklyn?"
Can't say what the dealie is yet, but if you are around and want to have fun, my cell number is available -





and also:



I will be talking to people and promoting the upcoming Etsy Green And Clean Guild trunk show that will be held at Etsy Labs in August. [which I will be DJing!]

What else has been going on? Honestly, I've been SUPER busy creating my Bath and Body domain! Not only have I been quietly working in my secret lab making amazing smelly Organic things, I've also kick started a business with my pal Melissa of Snitches Get Stitches to create a palette of *mineral* eyeshadow in crazy colours for cool people to love and wear with pride - Coffin Color! We've been having a blast creating wild shades, with more to come. Melissa and I have also been vending and causing trouble - you know that's fun stuff - and that takes up a lot of time. The rest? Well, I've been spinning straw into gold fiber into yarn, and knitting, and gardening, and cooking delicious food, and getting sunburnt at the pool. O_o

So there we are - an update into the busy yet really not that interesting life of Xiane. You can wake up any time now...

You do know that the line you quoted from "Detachable Penis" is one of my favorite song lyrics ever, right? 'Cause it is.

Well, we have impeccable really questionable taste [hee!] so this is no surprise! [and speaking of this, I've been watching a lot of VH1 Classic lately, and every time Hall and Oates comes on, I am forever thinking of you. And Miss Adina Watson, too.]

I suspect that things will be awfully whirlwind this time around anyway, so you won't miss much of me. Rob and I are actually taking a PLANE there and back - gasp!- so I won't be able to stop off in B'more this time. However, I am due up there again on Labor Day weekend, for the Trunk Show. If you're in town, I will definitely be able to stop through, as I'll be driving.

Did your packagage of Mmmmmm Brains arrive yet? :)

[xiane.livejournal.com]

Aw man, bummer. :(
However, it should be there waiting for you when she gets back! Look for extra somethin'-somethin's in there, too. ;)

You are a busy busy woman! I'm so glad that you have found a community that loves you as much as I do.

[xiane.livejournal.com]

Eeeeee. I miss you!

It's been good to turn my energy to a community that a. actually pays for me to sink energy into and b. is slightly less drama-filled. Ha! Crafters have their own drama, though - sometimes as ridiculous as any goth club fiasco. ;)
I miss DJing, but I don't miss clubs.

If you read the above reply to Wendy, I might be driving through the area on Labor Day weekend-ish. It would be after the festivities, for sure - I have a trunk show on Aug 31st and I'll probably drive back Sunday. If you're around sometime around then and I can swing it, meeting up for dinner or something would be excellent. And yes, I *am* planning that far ahead, how funny is that? :D

[crossbonesdj.livejournal.com]

I would LOVE to meet up with you! We'll be moving into our new place around that time, so if you make it all the way to DC, you can come and see it!!!

[fury-of-sunsets.livejournal.com]

hey cool, yer gonna be up in *my* neck of the woods, this time!

i'm actually going to be in the city this weekend as well, both for school-related things and because i have some old friends visiting from denver who have never taken a bite of the big apple...when do you think would be the best time to meet up with you?

[xiane.livejournal.com]

Oh! Please excuse me while I crow with happiness that I will get to see you! :D

I have two obligations only:
Friday night, the Etsy Anniversary party
Saturday day, the Renegade Craft Market

I get in on Thursday and leave on Sunday. That leaves a lot of time in between. Does any of that sync up with what you have free?
My cell # is still the same: 443 567 1046 - call anytime, before or while you're in NYC. :)

[redzshadow.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I wanna go to NYC. :( Lucky you!
Have a great time!!

[xiane.livejournal.com]

That's what I was saying, the last time YOU went! ;)
I can't think of NYC without you and Kristy. It will be weird. However, this is Rob's first time there! I get to show him things, how fun will that be?

[redzshadow.livejournal.com]

Well, he has a great person to show him around! I was so glad you were there for my first NYC trip. Now when I go I feel like a pro :)

[xiane.livejournal.com]

All it takes is a sense of adventure! :D

We will be riding the subway a lot. I had only ever done that once before the trip that we all went on!

Eeeeeee. I'm so excited. I get to go back in August, too!

[redzshadow.livejournal.com]

Really? When in August...cause I might be able to go...that is if that is ok.

[jukebox-heroine.livejournal.com]

mccarren park pool is AMAZING!!!
that's where shan & matt & i saw the secret machines & bloc party last summer. (the 4th stop on the beth stalks the secret machines tour 2006).
:D

[xiane.livejournal.com]

I've seen photos, it looks like a really cool place! Hopefully I will have photos of all my adventures, and they will be as entertaining as some of yours have been. ;)

[boadiccea.livejournal.com]

OMG, and now that song is going to be in my head all day!!! :)

[xiane.livejournal.com]

Muahahaaa. My work here is done.


:D

[stripey-girl.livejournal.com]

Oi! You have to come to Contempt! You will know several people there including anathemadevice, cxc, and dratomic. It's a friendly night and only $5 to get in if you print out the pass.

If you want more info let me know!

[xiane.livejournal.com]

If we can make it, we will! I printed out a pass from the website - it'll all depend on what goes on with the super secret mission, y'know. :)
If I can't make it this time, I *will* be back in town in August. Cha cha cha!

[stripey-girl.livejournal.com]

Cool. Have fun and hope to see ya!
