Do you think I can still be president?

I went online recently looking for the date of a party I went to last winter. The theme was Pink vs. Orange, and I made a fabulous orange strappy thing out of velcro and ratcheting straps from Home Depot. I googled "Bass Nympho's Ball" + "2006," clicked on the second link that came up and discovered this at the bottom of the page:



There I am, in all my orange glory, faux-ging for a friend's camera (I will have to discuss his picture-posting habits before I find myself featured on www.xxxgirlznextdoor.com). The party wasn't great, but I am very proud of the outfit, even if I do have a second-tier-Russian-model-cum-sci-fi-dominatrix look about me in this picture. Ever single piece is individually attached with velcro, so the whole thing can be refashioned in any number of ways. I think I inherited a mangled version of my mother's craft gene after all.
