..and I made something for who_secrets I'm quite proud of. This is the non-PC version. I made a nicer version for the comm.

NuWho fans on F'list, the cut here is for you. I adore you and advise you not to look, lest you hate and detest me forever..

.. StL Pridefest was this weekend :D I had a blast as usual. Worked at the Vital Voice table with Pamela and Hannah Saturday afternoon, ran into Jason and, surprisingly, Derek G. -- a kid I haven't seen since graduation. This is the kid who acted as my beard through junior high and I acted as his. The only person I ever knew who came out at 12.

Last year, I was still working at the Minoriteam McDonald's (six crew members, two managers, half of the staff was LGBT or allies). So many of us asked for the entire Pride weekend off, the *supervisor* was forced to spread the word that *no one* would be allowed the entire weekend off. We all had to work either Saturday or Sunday. We then fucked those plans by all asking for Sunday off so we could go to the parade (I think eventually Billy relented and worked Sunday so Caroline, Mack, Melissa and I could have it off).

On our way to the parade ground, I passed a woman who was wearing a t-shirt of her own design that featured the "Peanuts" characters Marcie and Peppermint Patty -- Marcie was giving Patty a flower. I got the idea to do a Rick/Vyvyan t-shirt to wear at the 2007 Pride celebration, played around with some pics on Photoshop, captions like "Gay British Pride, wankers!" etc. I'm not the most artistic talented person and the idea got back-burnered.

Last week, sinful_teddy posted a request for fan-art ideas on tyo_slash and I posted my idea as a reply. Saturday morning this -- sinful_teddy's Rick/Vyvyan design -- landed in my e-mail inbox :) I put the transfer together after I got home yesterday and had the shirt made by Sunday morning at the parade :)
