420 Needle Project/Performance

There's been a lot of hassle and difficulty in getting a location and date that everyone necessary can come, but it finally got all worked out:

This Saturday, Nov 27th Redeye42011 and I will be attempting our largest needle project to date: 420 needles, taking about 4 hours, in a design down his back, arms and buttocks.

We're going to be doing it at the local club on NEAAL night now that we've MsDawn's a-ok. I double-checked and the lady she has hosting it that night is aware of what we're planning and is also fine with it.

We are taking up a corner of the front dungeon and setting up my own lights, table, etc. and will be both videoing it and taking pictures.

I'm nervous for how pretty the design will hopefully come out and that it's going to be hard on both Redeye42011 and I (though in different ways). I've planned at least a break in the middle for us each to catch our breath and we're to each have an assistant (Lily for him, Chael for me) to keep us hydrated and to help me work as quickly and easily as possible.

Then, next day, I am working the vendor's fair at the same location doing permanent piercings and small temporary piercings at 25c/needle or cheaper with negotiation of large numbers. Miss Lilly and I are trying to figure out a way to pierce her for charity donations later that night at the play party. She's not sure if she might chicken out so we've no workable solution yet.

Tiring two days for me, upcoming. Phwoo.

Before then is Chael's and my Fall Anniversary on Wednesday (I train down tomorrow and then we'll come back up either Wednesday night or Thursday morning) and then Thursday we're having Thanksgiving with PSOGirl, her master and another friend of theirs. Just a small get together for the holiday.
