So, laptop trouble is essentially the battery going kaput. Combine that with us not realizing that you have to turn on the outlet I had plugged into.... yeah. Scorpy is still holding on!

chocomimi is getting ready, I'm taking a quick moment to update on our excellent adventure. Friday she took me to Temple Square and I had an absolutely amazing time. It's beautiful. I honestly can't put into words how beautiful it is. It's one of those places that defies the boundaries of human adjectives. And everyone sort of just assumed I was Mormon, which was a little bit neat, actually. I'll spare everyone the religious details, as I know not everyone on my Flist is as fascinated with religion as I am. :D But we talked with Sisters from all over the world, got a tour, had dinner at an amazing little restaurant on top of the Joseph Smith Building - guh, buffalo! - and then said goodbye to Temple Square. I am forever thankful to chocomimi for taking me and allowing me to learn firsthand about the history of the place and the people who built it.
At that point, it was time to call a cab to head to our Haunted Salt Lake Ghost Tour! Which was a two hour bus tour all over the city, led by three professional story tellers. It was a great tour, the three tour guides were funny, friendly and informative. And we had some weird occurences at one of the stops that I'll delve into later, I think.
Yesterday we went out for brunch and ended up staying out until 10! We went to this awesome beauty shop where Emi talked me into splurging and treating myself. I bought a dress. A brand new dress. A Betty Paige dress. Blue with brown polka-dots and a retro cut. Then we went to an awesome thrift store where I got a down coat for 10$, a better Naomi jacket, this amazing brown leather jacket with sweater sleeves (for 10$) another suitcase to pack this stuff in (5$) and this cool handbag thing to go with my new dress. Oh, and we also grabbed quick Light and L cosplay outfits. Then we went to an amazing Japanese restaurant, I had authentic Japanese food and sake, and was very full and happy. We headed home and dressed up and baked....
DEATH NOTE CUPCAKES! We did it. :D I ended up dressed as Light and Emi dressed as Honey (Ouran) and we baked cupcakes. Pictures to be posted when they're on a computer! Then we ended up in Lolita, wandered around campus, watched some Avatar, a documentary on the history of illegal drugs, and finally crashed.
Now we're getting Lolita-ed up again for a day on the town!
I need to finish being bowed and beribboned, so I shall update again...some other time! :D :D :D
(Expect RP stuff to be posted when I return. Sorry, I just don't have the time right now!)
