It was a lot of fun but COLD. There were 3 garrisons represented: New England, Ct and one trooper from Carida (PA) who is a Boston native. I'm the one in gray. DAMN is a 7 lb helmet over a 4 mile walk heavy!

We did see V for Vendetta on Saturday at the Imax - GO SEE IT! It was excellent. :)

The Art of the Teese

Brian and I picked up the new Dita Von Teese book this weekend. They had a few copies at Barnes and Noble in the "Relationships" section (sna?) right next to the "Sexuality" section. ( Read more... )

I've definitely enjoyed reading the book for its insights into where Dita is coming from, the overview of burlesque and fetish scene history, and I have some things to take away for later (books to read, movies to see, interesting fasion items to seek out). It also leaves me curious to read Mr. Warner's autobiography that's been on our shelf for years (Brian read it when it first came out, but I still haven't). I can truly see how the couple may be two peas in a pod, each having something inside them that the outside mainstream world may find odd. Quite the cute, schmoopy, freaky couple! :)
