the thing about wearing Victorian “feminine” summer clothing in the heat is that it feels like one of those Gothic posts
you are wearing six layers and long sleeves. you are aware of this. every inch of skin from neck to floor is covered.
you are no hotter than you would be wearing your usual sleeveless modern sundress
you ARE hot, to be clear. you’re sweating. you know this to be true. “my chemise probably smells pretty bad,” you think. “I should wash it later.” you ply your fan and idly twirl your parasol. you move into the shade
you are no hotter than you would be wearing your usual sleeveless modern sundress
an event guest comes up to you, sweating profusely in shorts and a t-shirt. “Aren’t you so hot in that?” he says, fanning himself. 
“well, yes, I’m hot,” you say, “but-”
“I can’t believe our ancestors dressed like that!” he says. he walks away
you open your water bottle and sip slowly. you really should feel hotter, you think. it seems fake. layers = heat, after all. that just makes sense. you are wearing six layers and long sleeves
you are no hotter than you would be wearing your usual sleeveless modern sundress

So my family and I decided to go out to eat at a restaurant which was coincidentally across from the venue. So we were walking down the street and I see this huge tour bus right outside the restaurant. My heart starts racing and i thought “how cool would it be if I bumped into someone from the group” well lo and behold as we are coming closer to the bus, Christofer Drew turns the corner and walks towards the bus. So I stop in my tracks and just say “Christofer Drew?” And he stops and he says hi! He asked if I was going to the show and I said no and he goes “well you gotta promise you’ll come to the next one!” Of course I made the promise and I didn’t break it! He came back that summer and I got to see him ❤️ I also met two groups called Breathe Carolina and Crown The Empire. I also met Evan Peters and Sebastian Stan at Comic Con a couple years ago.
