Re: large holes in ear... (in Tattooed & Pierced Belly Dancers) Claire's has up to 10g earrings, though I wouldn't recommend them. The metal content in their gauges is somewhat questionable. But after that you can get plain tunnels at Spencer's or other such stores. You can also get them from local piercing sh... read more

Re: Sewing silk on to faux fur (in Playalicious Playwear) Also, sew everything but the wrists and bottom hem. Put the thing on a hanger and leave it for a couple of days. The faux fur is obviously not going to stretch, but the silk can. And if you sew it before hanging, then you will end up with this sac... read more

Re: Ilaniowear (in Playalicious Playwear) I love cryoflesh! I have recently discovered them independently of your recommendation. And yes, Ilanio is too small. Bastards.

Re: Sahra's 3-day Egyptian folkloric intensive coming to Iowa! (in Belly Dancing - the Shira.net Tribe) Any chance this will ever make it to the east coast?

I gauged my ears!

From a 9 to a 6! and it sucked big hair monkey testicles! Mostly because I thought I had 8s in my ears originally, not 9s. Secondly, I usually go up a size simply by applying rubbing alcohol. But people have been advising me to get in a nice toasty shower and massage my ears and then do it. Well, now my ears are KILLING ME! And not the infected ear either, the totally healthy happy ear HURTSES!!!!

But I am the awesome, one size closer.

Holy CRAP!

I thought everyone needs to know about this:

I went searching for answers as to surface piercings. All I did was type in piercings under tribe browsing, and wound up with this:
tribes.tribe.net/surgicalb...3d7d5696d0

WHY!?!?!?!? the description of the tribe is simply surgical body mods, and all they ever post about is electronic simulation, and have a few pictures of guys who have so mutilated their genitalia I imagine any woman who doesn't ... read more

On to the other stuff!

freakish anger aside, I HAVE SETTLED ON A PERSONA IN THE SCA! LET THE WORLD REJOICE!

So SCAdians are aware of the "traveling" persona, people who magically transport through space and time to keep wearing the garb they want, instead of just adopting different personas per each different era. Well not I! said the Occi, no, no, that's is of the most lame excuses.

BUT! after deciding i was going to hunker down on the internet until I settled on a persona, long as it takes. Well, I am proud... read more

Have two rants

well, one's a rant, one's an "AHA!" By-jove-i-think-she's-got-it, thing.

AT ANY RATE!
I am going to expunge on the awfulness that is "professional bellydance" take no offense, those of you who feel like flaming me, because I'll just mock you and your sensitive ego anyways.
MAJOR POINTS
1: the uneven timing and individual expressions of troupes
2: Individual non-layering, and THEN getting praise by the community as having impeccable technique
3: using bellydance as a catch-all for fusi... read more
