Belly paint, courtesy of Gena Schwam. We decided to paint a hamsa on my belly because I have been wearing one for my entire pregnancy. I love how it came out! Totally original and different. Thanks G.

We've become a ltitle obsessed. It started with the white tiger - Leon. We found him in the discount bin at Isis Maternity. He seemed a little frazzled, a little overcaffeinated. Soon, he let us know where his siblings had been. Larissa, the orange tiger, had been wrapped in a saran wrap fetish outfit that she had to be cut out of. Finally, several days later, the cats were reunited with Ziggy - their long-lost brother. Now, all three cats live in our house staring at us with their huge glassy eyes.

allison and I were dressed up as Ann Bonny and Mary Read (wiki it) - and Arlene was the Snow Queen for Narnia.

Just wanted to note - I made those pants! My first pair of pants and let me tell you the hardest part was the ruffles at the knees. Not easy!

I am performing in Johara's "Harvest Moon" on Nov 9th, in a piece entitled Vampire Bride. I am one of the three head vampires.

I just love our costumes and doing this piece with the lovely girls from Snakedance Theater - it was fun to wear a corset again and to be a little campy and evil. :-)

It will be even better on November 9th.
