Tales of compression

When briefly dressing a few days ago found the overbust Axfords corset. Slight smell of mould.  Oh dear.  Mould on the black material.  Was toying with getting it drycleaned but checked the Internet which said hand washing done properly was OK. Currently its on the windowsill in a towel and hopefully should dry and be as good as new.  It has been in a few of my most popular pics and would be sad to lose it.
Today in Newcastle went into Katmandu, pseudogoth shop, "We do not do piercings" said a sign or 2 on the door.  It takes itself a bit too seriously as goth shops have a habit of doing but basically looked for another corset in the sales rack.  Result.  Blue vinyl over bust, the stays feel plastic so not really a proper corset but decided for £24 to have a punt on it.  Tried it on briefly.  Lots of lacing up required but looks OK.  Paid a lot more for less so cannot complain.  Will see when actually get chance to take some pics or even wear it for real.  The pink one has not been photographed yet so could be a corset tastic time.
Got number and details for 5 K run.  Meant to do for last 2 years, will now but have moved on.  Still got to show solidarity.  friday night which is a pain but even so should be good. May even see ex counsellor which would be good. 
Three weeks to Brighton 2014.  Worried about money, as ever.  Need to get waxed, hair cut and spray tanned.  Also hopefully lose some weight or at least tone up a bit. Sandals would be nice, perhaps another pair of capri pants.  Even running ones, be good to do run in en femme. 
Support group tomorrow, will try to go. What to wear?  Would like to show a little leg, that always seems to perk up. On sunday wore compression leggings and shorts.  No longer think I look very femme, the upper half lets me down, I look tired , body hunched forward.  Did get quietly whistled but may have been ironically.  Even so perked me up a bit.
