THE TOMBSTONE TROLLOP


So.... Here i am in the debut of my tart outfit. I thought as long as i was rumored to have my boobs out at the bar... i might as well. when i was dressing for the ren faire, i always went as the wench. the wenches had so much more fun! they were allowed to do many things the proper ladies were not allowed to do. so even as a vigilette, i like to undress and go to the saloon as a tart. in fact, i had just been at the bordello at a vigilette function. we had a big party with the intention of recruiting new members. i wore my maroon dress which i haven't worn in a while. after the party, i stripped down to my victorian underwear, donned a blue silk robe, and headed down allen st escorted by my good friend the reverend D. of course we met people we knew along the journey, the first being our oldest vigilette, J. She chastised rev D for being seen on the sunny side of the street with a "shady lady," but then told me i looked fantastic. later we saw the high vigilette, who chastised me for being out in public in my undergarments, but also told me how stunning i looked. after about thirty minutes of being very uncomfortable, i loosened my corset in the ladies' - which also had the effect of bringing the twins down to a less vulgar altitude.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT...
speaking of the twins- i read a statistic that 80% of women are wearing the wrong bra size. so i did a little research and found this website. a couple of measurments and you will instantly know your bra size in several countries. mr. k quipped that mine would not register on the japanese size chart. he was wrong.... I am a 75E in Japan. i'm sure that's good to know.
SOAPBOX OFF....

so... i am a mechanic. well, ok, a lovely assistant. while i cannot pull a rabbit out of a hat, i do have the ability to help mr. k replace the head gaskets on a diesel truck. oh no, there is nothing wrong with the redneck truck- the one we just fixed is the one that he bought for a parts truck just last week. oh yes. being that we live 11 hours from the nearest pick your parts place, mr.k bought a parts truck- the same exact truck- but with a 5 speed tranny. well, after an interesting ride home from huachuca city (didn't anyone ever tell mr.k that it's not easy to pull a slightly heavier truck with a slightly lighter truck? well anyway, the new truck jumped off the dolly and we spent a good two hours at the intersection jacking it back into place. well, he did anyway along with two tombstone cops and two high school kids...) anyway, mr. k looked at the new truck and decided he could fix that. so even though the cylider heads to a diesel truck weigh 103 lbs, mr.k decided to lift them out. not a problem until he found out he couldn't balance them on the edge of the truck and at the same time get out of the engine compartment. good thing i came home then, being a good balancer! it was touch and go getting them back in, we even borrowed an engine hoist from the neighbor! anyway, we did it without damaging the head gasket. you have no idea how much it means to me that i know how all those stupid moving parts work now. and why a diesel head is so much larger than the piston in a gas engine. and why diesels don't have spark plugs.
enough nerdy... enjoy the following beer ad:

I love your outfit! How much fun. I'm glad that you're having fun. I'm sure that Tombstone is buzzing about the great Rev and you, now.

Thanks for the bra link. I hope that I am wearing the right bra. I'd be in a lot of trouble if I weren't.
