Jeweled Elf Ear Shinies

I’m a sucker for elf ears, so when I found this etsy shop a few months ago, I jumped all over it. (She’ll make them in whatever style you want and whatever stones you like. I’ve got moonstones in mine.) Custom elf ears that slide right over your regular ears…that stay put. I have NO idea where the hell I will wear them, but the nice thing is that I *can.* If I wanted to. Maybe I’m wearing them right now. Maybe.…

Sickly…
Both Lucy and I are running fevers tonight, so I suspect there’s a sick day in it for me tomorrow, or at least a day working from home if she’s not feeling any better. She’s definitely got the worst of it at the moment – my temp is running on the edge of uncomfortable with an side order of headache, but it’s manageable.

The stuff they sell is really over-the-top – shirts, dresses, jewelry – all of it done up in lovely vintage/Victorian crystals. Mr myn bought me the pictured necklace, which I’ve worn pretty much every day since then. I’m terribly hard on my jewelry, mind – I sleep in it, shower in it, pretty much never take it off. It’s one of the reasons I don’t wear much and it’s why I’m not interested in it unless it’s a bit on the hardier side. At any rate, last year one of the crystals fell off – but we found it right away and we were able to glue it back on. About two weeks ago I noticed another one had fallen off, but we couldn’t find it anywhere. This sort…
