Monday questions...

[shadesong]

What are you wearing?

I'm wearing this outfit: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=959630934&rd=1
With these earrings: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=959024629&rd=1

I love eBay. I highly recommend the seller of those earrings, by the way; she's evilari on LJ, and she does fantastic work with jewelry and is an all-around fabulous person. So buy from her.

Reading: Here, "The Penultimate Truth" by Philip K. Dick. At home, "Kodocha" by Miho Obana (it's a shoujo manga, translated by Sarah Dyer of Action Girl!).

You?

Wearing: Black tshirt with a image of a dragon wrapped around the hilt of a sword on the front, blue jeans, matching socks, New Rock boots, and when I'm outside, the Huge Leather Coat of Doom (was asked by a guy who was repairing it once, "How many cows?" - probably bullet proof at anything over forty feet, and makes me look well 'ard).

Reading: Lavondyss, by Robert Holdstock on the bus and train, and Engineering in the Ancient World at bedtime. Recently got hold of Culpeper's Complete Herbal, and should have a copy of the D&D Epic Level Handbook arriving this week from Greenwood Games.

I'm wearing my jammies right now ;-) thanks for the recommendation! You're too sweet. ::grins:: so you like the earrings? I'm going to be taking photos and writing ads today for more, lots more hopefully!

I'm reading Perdido Street Station by China Mieville, it's slow going, but good. Next on the pile is Ill Met by Moonlight by Sarah A. Hoyt, which I just bought.

[shadesong.livejournal.com]

[eudaimonia.livejournal.com]

Will do! :-) Thank ye kindly, dear lady.

Wearing:
Hunter green silk buttondown & khacki slacks. Was going to wear khacki Disney shirt but my husband made faces and said I looked like a tan wall. Also wearing tan slip-ons.

No jewelry :( No time to put any on this morning. It wasn't a good morning for taking care of me.

Reading: Peter David, Sir Apropos of Nothing and Selected Letters of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings

Yeah, these earrings don't exactly match... just grabbed them because they were on top of the jewelry armoire and not within it, and hey, they are lovely. :)

[ex-arakiel820.livejournal.com]

I like Ebay too much as well.

Today's attire

[butterflydezi.livejournal.com]

plum satin button down shirt with hidden buttons, black skirt that falls just above my knees with a slit to the left to show of a bit of leg. . .black silk stalkings, black 3" heels, and matching black satin undies and bra. Jewelry is my usual that never comes off: One left hand, wedding ring of two interlocking bands that form a yin/yang, gold band that has a "d" on it that was my mother in laws, right hand a trio of silver banks on my thumb, garnet ring on my middle finger, and a ring with diamonds in it that my husband gave to me when he asked me to marry him on my ring finger, necklace that has my pentacle on it.

As for reading am reading "The Street Lawyer" by John Grisham, and when this is done will be re~reading the Anita Blake series by Laurell K. Hamilton.

[suibhne-geilt.livejournal.com]

OK.

What I'm wearing, from the inside out...

Contact lenses, white comfy undies, khaki socks, one necklace with an oak leaf and acorn pendant and a raven pendant. A second necklance with a pentagram pendant, and a sheila na gig pendant (obviously, this one never comes out at work), wristwatch, plain silver pinkie ring, white gold wedding ring, silver and laboradorite ring, three silver earrings in my left ear (one plain, one with black onyx bead, one with an oak leaf), one silver and onyx tragus piercing in my right ear, jump boots, black EMS pants, khaki "Solas" t-shirt, one necklace with a pendant that is obsidian on one face and amber on the other.

What I'm reading - at work "We Were Soldiers Once... And Young" by James Galloway & LTG Harold G. Moore. At home, "Disappearances", by Kristine Kathryn Rusch for fun, and "Dying for the Gods: Human Sacrifice and Ritual Murder in Iron Age and Pre-Roman Europe", by Miranda Green as research for a workshop I'm presenting at a Pagan festival.

Dying for the Gods: Human Sacrifice and Ritual Murder in Iron Age and Pre-Roman Europe - is it worth reading for interest as well as research? I kind-of, sort-of have access to one of the Copyright Libraries here, so I can probably get hold of it...

Re:

[suibhne-geilt.livejournal.com]

Yes, it's quite well written.

It's a serious study of the evidence for human sacrifice in Europe. Like all of Green's works, it's pretty in-depth, but also accessible to lay people. This one was written more for a scholarly crowd, than for the mass market, but is still very readable.

Also, it neither sugar-coats, nor apologizes for the subject matter. She lays out what she's aware of, and how she interprets the evidence.

Black jeans, black boots, purply-red vneck top, beige fluffy zip-up jacket thing.

Reading: more Diana Gabaldon (as a counter to recently-relieved wall stress), plus Evgeny Popov 'Merry-Making in Old Russia', which is only good in small doses (I think I'm missing a lot due to lack of knowledge of Soviet-era Russia)

Wearing: bright red satin blouse, black velvet broomstick-style skirt, beige thigh high stockings (I hate pantyhose, it's a bitch), black heels. Hidden underneath, royal blue bra and bright red satin panties. Jewelry: silver wedding band worked in Celtic knots, silver chain holding a pentacle made to look like a wreath of leafy sticks with a malachite in the center. I call it the Stealth Pentacle because nobody at work seems to notice it. Or at least, nobody's said anything about it. If I can find pics, I'll post 'em.

Reading: A Game of Thrones, by George R. R. Martin. A loaner from skydancer. In my reader queue, I have some Robert Jordan (also from skydancer), the entire Sword-Dancer series by Jennifer Roberson, and Q-Squared, a Peter David ST:TNG novel, all borrowed from kendaer and tabbifli. Oh, and three romance novels tabbifli suggested would be of interest to me (see pentacle above, wink wink).
