Happy Dracula Day


Happy #WorldGothDay to everyone who is too tired to do eye makeup but who still contemplates the poetry of living here in hell together.
I’m listening to this one with my morning chores.
I am drafting a skirt (for goth day) and just caught myself marking the available fabric as 52 inches by 2.5 meters. Canada was a mistake.

An idea came to me during a conversation about World Goth Day (May 22) and now I can’t stop thinking about how fun and funny it would be to set up a little free library for goth nonsense in a secret location in a cemetery. Swap your unwanted candles, black nail polish, horror novels, goblets, etc.
Feels inappropriate to do in real life because all the local cemeteries are still active and i don’t want to intrude on the recently bereaved.
But i daydream (classic goth pastime).

Unsolicited tea recommendation for goth tea lovers, tarot readers, and people who like whiskey in their tea… This Murchie’s number is smoked black tea with roses and fruit (strawberry and black currant). Tea is usually cosy or maybe herbal– this one is moody and horny. I’m having it while weeding the garden on a Saturday afternoon and it is intensely not the right tea for this despite being very delicious 😂
