Man, I would have worn something different to work today if someone had bothered to tell me it was freaking WORLD GOTH DAY. Luckily there is still time to stop home for something black/antique/lacy, pancake makeup, and a blood red lip before bellying up at Lovecraft, my very favorite goth bar, and possibly the only goth bar, in the whoooooole city, where according to their schedule, the night's festivities will be celebrated with a set from DJ iPod—what... dude, that's hella not... oh, whatever.
