    Hip Stitch and The Designer's Lounge
    I was asked to write an article for DiyCityMag about the two sewing lounges in Albuquerque. Thought I'd share the article in case you haven't heard about the lounges:

    Sexy Classes 8/5 and 8/19
    I am pleased to announce two classes here in Duke City next month, the evenings of August 5th and (the correct date of the) 19st.

    August 5th- BDSM / Poly / Alternative- Navigating Alternative Lifestyles
    Curious about BDSM, kink or Leather? Wanting to explore polyamoury, swinging or open relationships? Then this is the workshop for you!

    Wondering how to make your way around the alternative scene? Curious if New Mexico even really has one? In this workshop we'll talk about how to navigate the local and national "scene" safely, and ways to do so more effectively. We won't just be covering Leather, but we will at least touch on goth/industrial, punk, fetish, swinging, alternative religions/spiritualities, polyamoury, the sci-fi subculture, kink and gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgenger/queer. There is a place for everyone, and this workshop will give you the tools to find those places, and stay safer while you're there. Attendees will greatly dictate the topics that are covered in debth.

    August 19st- Fulfilling Your Partner's Fantasies
    Does your sweetie have something that really gets them going? Let's face facts- it's no coincidence those cheerleader, cop and superhero outfits sell out every Halloween. Join us for a class on how to fulfill your partner's fantasies from the simplest wardrobe change to an entire evening of fantasy fulfillment.

    Both classes are at Self Serve in beautiful Nob Hill. You will be able to reserve your spot soon!

    The Trivia Must Go On...Death Edition
    That's right it's Monday, and that means Drunk and Nerdy down at Retro's Bar.

    It's gonna be a ghastly night of fun and trivia when it's a death themed night. With celebrities dropping left and right over the week...Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, and Billy Mays, someone needs to step up and make trivia light of it all.

    Rounds for tonight include...

    -This Week in History...A dead peoples round
    -This Week in Death...on the 4 celebrities listed above
    -What Would You Pay?...an infomercials round
    -Micheal Jackson Videos without the volume
    -and audio rounds on songs about death and people who died from drug overdoses

    You're not going to get a dead trivia fix like this around town except at Retro's. Where drink specials are on, and where Retro's is now serving pizza.

    Quiz starts at 8pm
    Retro's is located at the corner of Constitution and Wyoming

    Abandoned?
    I gather that this community is abandoned by its remaining maintainer. That sucks.

    (DID ANYONE NOTICE THE FLY SURVIVED) president obama fighting a protesting fly that happened to be flying near-by...a conspiratorial assassination of the third kind before it had a chance to speak its truth.

    Looking for a fiber spinner...
    I am looking for someone who knows how to take fiber and spin it... whatever that pastime is called, lol.

    I have lots of ideas brewing and would like someone to collaborate with since I have no spinning skills at all, and I need someone to get me from raw fiber to yarn product.

    The ideas: I want to spiff up my carved antler and bone jewelery. I usually just offer the pendants on chains or deer silk. Which looks so boring! So I was thinking- why not use some of my sheep's wool. Or my dog's shed fur (next spring, was dumb and didn't think of spinning her fur until now). Or that dead coyote's fur. Or this fur from two really-bad-quality tanuki tails. Or my donkey's hair.

    Why not?

    But I need this raw material spun! If we can work out an exchange of somesort (I got 3 bags of wool, and some donkey hair to trade for services...)? I can also, of course, advertise any of your products alongside my own.

    So... email or reply here if you're interested in this. :) I'm located in the south valley if that makes a difference (though obviously, I'll have to come to you since you have the spinner).

    Hip Stitch Sewing Lounge
    Hey there - some of my clothing and accessories are being featured at Hip Stitch, 7001 San Antonio NE, Suite P. I'm their "artist of the month" for June! I have some things in their store that I usually sell online: Indiscretion and Haute Indiscretion. If you've never been there - they have a lounge and a sewing area with about 5 machines, I think, and a couple of sergers and have some fun sewing classes. They may have more machines than that, every time I go there another one seems to appear....

    They also sell fabric and they are having a big sale from June 6-13. I bought fabric from them not too long ago, but I will be going back for more! They have cool stuff like this:

    I'm doing a scavenger hunt...and I need to find in Albuquerque...

    1) A building that is more than 4 stories tall and has some kind of observatory deck on the roof.

    2) A building that has more than 13 floors, but the button for the 13th floor is not on the button panel (sometimes the 13th floor is left off because it's considered bad luck or some such thing).

    I have to take a photo on the roof and a photo of the elevator panel. Is it possible to find both of these things in Albuquerque - where I can legally access it, of course ;)
