doing stuffs that are totally wild and obscene

-
Coming up next Sat, Nov. 20 from 3-5 is the last Pretty Pretty (Look at You!) of the year!

I'm taking December off and I suggest you do, too.   Pretty Pretty will be back in January--the 29th, to be exact AND, since there's no "Pearls" for me in January, I was thinking that I might do a drag king tutorial. How dashing!! It won't be the first drag king tutorial that Retro Fit has seen. I believe that the fantastic Leigh Crow did one once.

In other fun news, this past weekend I had the pleasure of doing a makeup collaboration with artist, Alissa Polan for a photographic piece.  It's a continuation of a project that involves gender and artificiality/realness--so obviously I'm interested in seeing the final pieces.  (I also love her for giving me very nice yelp review.)


What else, what else?  Oh!  This is the last week to catch Shocktoberfest 2010, "Kiss of Blood."  It's only playing this Thursday and Friday and it is a bloody good time, so if you can prevent yourself from missing it--please do!





At this point, you may be wondering where the title of this post came from.  Why, my favorite review of "Pearls Over Shanghai" ever, that's where.  From Goldstar:

"This show is X-rated !! Cast members were showing their 'private parts' on stage, and doing stuffs that are totally wild and obscene, e.g masturbating on stage?!! Kudos for the interesting costume and beautiful make up on all the cast. Overall, I think if they remove all the x-rated scenes, this show will be a great show, as they are great singers and actors. "


When I read this review, I try to imagine the kind of person who could wind up at "Pearls" without having any knowledge of what the show is about. Also I guess it's indeering to think that somewhere--in the bay area--there's a grown-up so pure, that they don't know what pornography is. Ah, so nice...

See you next Saturday, Pretty Pretty!

XOXO

Hey y'all. Magnetic false eyelashes...I had so many questions about these--mainly "how" and "why?" Special thanks to Niki, who found these online and gave them to me as a gift! I'm a few days late of my goal of posting a video every week, but I hope people enjoy! I still haven't had a chance to really post any Easter pics yet, but I will get to that soon!  (Nobody is putting any pressure on me to do so, but myself.  The main significance of posting this blog is just for my own sake--to keep record of what all I'm getting myself into!) Love, Kate

Single for a year

Today I’ve met a personal goal—to be single for at least a year.  I'd like to share about this. (Mind you, for the last 365 days, nobody has been banging down my door to date me—though I did have my “Sorry. I am not available,” speech prepared!) Since I was 15, I’ve been in one romantic relationship or another, with the longest time between relationships being around 3 months.  I’ve been in 2 relationships that were over 5 years long and 5 relationships that were over 2 years long.  I've had some really wonderful partners, but it was often the luck of the draw. I was casting a pretty wide net. A year ago, I had to end a relationship that was not healthy.  I was scared of a lot of things, including being alone. I had been finding my value through romantic love, which meant my value always fluctuated. I felt that I needed to change myself to become whatever the other person wanted me to be.  I now know that had the relationship not been so extreme, I pro...
