Whoo... new holes! A second set of lobe holes, nothing too flash, but I'm happy with them anyway. My hopes for ever having a septum piercing were dashed though... I'd already feared this would be the case, but I asked my piercer when I was getting my lobes done. I have a slightly deviated septum, the actual cartilage bends off to one side slightly, and the skin doesn't match up completely with the cartilage either, so that piercing is completely out of the picture. A shame as I do really love the look of septum piercings, but I don't need people looking at me oddly because I have one that's off-center or angled strangely. *sigh*.
Getting into the city this morning was a bit of a trial... train was late due to track repairs, then there weren't any subway trains at Grand Central for some mysterious reason. They had cordoned off the area and were saying there was no service, and there were a bunch of firemen down there... so because I wasn't late enough already, I got to walk to Port Authority to meet up with Kit who had had a portfolio showing earlier that morning.
Walked around for a while checking for some lining fabrics and then went to pick PreZ up at work to go for lunch. Had lunch, chatted, left Kit's portfolio for safekeeping and we went to pick up the corset busk and flat steels at Greenburg and Hammer. Then down to the Lower East Side for my new piercings (thanks Tyler @ NY Adorned!). After that we headed back to the Fashion district in search of the perfect jacket lining fabric for Kit's new jacket... eventually he settled for a silver/gunmetal colour with a kind of bronzish shimmer to it, very nice.
Back uptown to pick PreZ up from work, and Home James!
Weird moment of the day: Some guy outside of Port Authority who started singing the Fruitopia jingle when he saw me drinking from a bottle of Strawberry-Passionfruit Fruitopia.
Tomorrow the apartment needs some serious Tender Loving Care, it's been very neglected recently, and being away all weekend didn't help. Also sometime in the afternoon it's off to NJ for a corsetmaking session with Kit tomorrow evening, a kind of catch-up session because we missed the past two Fridays.
