Poltergeist?

Straaaaange things happened today.
I have a small plastic Count Dracula in a necklace, and he starts to play a "scary" song when you push him...well, last night he started playing without anyone being near him - in the middle of the night *ihhhh* - several times!!!

Okay, bit *thumbs up for the nice use of word* scary, but I could handle it.
But just now my talking beer opener (now it seems like I drink beer all of the time - I'm no beer person, but I use beer in food and baking bread sometimes *okay, we get it, you only drink beer when you HAVE to and nothing else is available*) started to talk!
"-Oh, YEAH!!! Time for a beer!" it says. Like 10 times in a row now...

Don't like this..

What's next? My battery operated things in my bed table going off by themselves? (I'm of course talking about the remote controls and alarm watches...)

I used a slightly bigger brush today since my thin brush is a total mess and I need to order a new one.

Since I use the Kryolan cake eye liner together with my Kryolan CEL sealer it is important what brush you have. Synthetic hairs can't carry as much water and color as real hair, and that makes it difficult to draw my swirls otherwise since the color won't last all the way.

My Music Mondays: Front 242

*Synthare is the swedish term for an electro goth (I think that's the closest).
At the same time as Alphaville, Depeche Mode and Nitzer Ebb were trying their best to kill my Ferguson speakers there was another bidder for my ears love: Front 242.

Headhunter by Front 242

This cool Belgium band also came with a whole package, just likeNitzer Ebb and Depeche Mode they had a certain dress- and hair style.

Dressed in quasi-military attire and having some very graphic and odd band pictures, as well as a pacey live performance they stood out and was just what cool, fake-angry teen girls needed.

Me and my friends even came up with this (rediculous) dance rountine to the song Headhunter. As we were no professional dancers the routine was VERY simple and we danced it as a group (we were a gang of 8-14 girls that always hang out together) so we stood in a long line doing the moves simultaneously.

Still to this day I can't hear the song without taking a few of the moves!

I arranged a bus trip to them playing in Gothenburg when I was 16, 1989 (I think it was the 19'th of March?). I belive I managed to fill a bus with 64 people for that trip.

The fun/sad part was that several of the guys had cut their wonderful synth-hairdo just as Richard 23. If not misstken it was a kind of a mohawk, but 5 centimeters wide and 9 mm high.
I felt so sad that they had cut off that supercute synth-hair.

Classic swedish synth hairdo (apart from the sideburns).

And about 90% of the concert goers had "Front-outfits"; military thingies, 10 eye doc's, black body armour looking vests and linen. Not my favorite synth outfit, but totally okay.

Not that much make up either, so I prefered the Depeche Mode fans more since they had more arty hair and embraced the androgynous look of a New Romantic that has always been my kind of guy!

I love Front 242 so much that I even have their logo for one of the maxi singles "Tyranni for you" tattooed on my arm. I LOVE that tattoo!

Here is another very famous song by the lovely Front242:

No shuffle

And one of my favs:

Music Monday, I promise!

I have been a tired Adora lately and missed out on my duty's as a respectful blogger. I just put a needle in my hand to make me snap out of it - and hell, it might just have worked! I stood up straight, gazed to the sun and declared "never more". So, yes, there will be a Music Monday today! And also: today's make up.

Picture 1,

Even though I was going to an adventure bath today I see no reason not to have pretty make up, at least to begin with...and I figure since I wear so much make up it will only look like a normal Goth day of my life even if it smudges.

Picture 2

After beeing drenched by TeeBee like 45 times, got under the water several times and been splashed on 62 times the make up still were perfect! I'm in shock! Kryolan foundation and IsaDora powder really stood the test today!

And oh yeah -I have the Senior Goth body of the year as you can tell  :)

And the fiercest swim wear in the Goth history. Uhhm , perhaps not..

I'm not Esther Williams!

Contrary to what my family seems to think I am not the reincarnation of swim art princess Esther W.

Okay,so I have probably seen all her movies but that doesn't make me wanna dip my toes in water below 30 degrees Celsius more often.

But once again the pale Goth of the family got voted down and is forced to put on a fake happy smile and travel by car 1 hour to go to a water park (Kaskad in Tingsryd) and laugh in pain as the make up slowly gets ruined and the fun breaks through my wall of cynicism and what a horror - I might just have fun for real!

I will never get my mopy goth respect back if anyone sees this.

Good thing I paint my eyebrows "angry", this way it will look as if I'm laughing with an evil grin. "-Mo ha ha haaa!

BatBrat transfered to CatBrat

TeeBee s final 5'the Birthday party is over. The 3d Halloween party he had!

I borrowed the kids catwoman mask and tried to do a Michelle.  We'll, she did it better, but I think I did it okay.

I have licked all of the cream of the cake and will now lick myself on my secret place (behind my ear). Mmmiauu...

I just can't help it, but I love my swirls!

But it seems like I have to buy a new brush. Last time I had to buy one with synthetic fibre, and they only last a couple of months so I need to buy a new with real hair.

I used to have one made of one of the squirrels Elvis ate, but after some years it ran away with it's fur in a sorry state.

This time they only have "mård " (it's a bit like a wolverine) so I'll try it.

Can't be worse than it already is!

Today's look.

I'm at the veterinarian office (from this morning) to leave off Porsche (my siames cat) who had a small biopsy of his heel done.

Nothing serious, just as a precaution since he had a bit of a rash. He's home now and been sleeping in my lap since  <3

Facebook back!

Just now I got my Facebook account back. Feels great to be part of the world again :)

On my way out for a business meeting.

The clever little hair clip is a picture of an old medicine bottle printed and glued to a wooden cut out  board and a hair clip glued on the back.

Easy and striking!

Unfortunately I can't take credit for making it as I bought it at a stall at the new "Space market" in Camden, London.

But belive me, I will use this knowledge for my own privilege to somehow make this help me rule the world!

M'era Luna festival 2011 - Day 2

Here is a picture of me and my sister Iva Insane by Andreas Metzner from this years M'era Luna:

Aww, we are so cute together!!! I miss my super pretty sister :(  ...and M'era Luna....and all the fab and sweet friends we have there... Miss you all!

Reader Recommendation: Nordlicht

I just LOVE when my fellow bats sees something adorable and send the tips straigh to me!

Lovely Nordlicht got the "subtile" message that I have a flair for princess crowns and as she was out hunting for whatever scary thing on Etsy.com she saw this scary sweet crown and immediately thought of me!
Isn't that just the sweetest?!

Crown by Etsy designer Noxhyde $59.99. Made of leather.

Are to be fastened by bobby pins.

Of course I love it! It's so EVIL!

The designer of this creation is Noxhyde.

She's got these lovely cat ears as well. $39.99.

Really brings shame to my old DIY ones! *bit embarassed now*

They have long stitches underneath that you put the bobby pins in.

But since I'm a crafting person myself I will try to make my own. I love this idea! But I will probably add hair clips to them. Just don't have the time to fuck round with bobby pins in the morning...

Panic!!! Facebook account disactivated!

WTF!
Someone, now on top of my dead list (and will turn up dead tomorrow), reported to Facebook that Adora BatBrat wasn't my real name (you know who you are S!).
Now...that's not nice..
Especially since I AM Adora BatBrat! Just as much as Norma Jean was Marilyn Monroe.

Worst thing is I can't even get access to my linked accounts; like my official Adora BatBrat page, Asperger Synthdrome and BatBrat.com Facebook pages...
But since I'm the luckiest person alive I will turn out on top of this anyway ;)

Sunday ice capades!

In my attempt to stay true to my Sunday Goth coolness I tried out a new activity since last Sundays theater was fun - and that's not cool.

Digged out my old ice skates that'd been in hiding since the last decade (more like 15 years).
Ice is cool so it might just done the trick!
But it was a pure BatBambi on ice I can tell you!

I fell on my pretty behind ONCE and of course my husband caught it on video!

But once again I had fun, so this won't quality as a cool Sunday Goth activity either.
But I will not rest until I've discovered the perfect cool Goth thing to do on a Sunday!

Adora, the interior designer

I had a blast putting up new wallpaper and a new floor this week.
I had an accident with the old ones that included blood splatter by some reason.

The checker floor and the shocking pink wallpaper is a classic.
Actually my pretty sister Iva Insane 's teen room looked/looks exactly like this.

But this is not a room I'd like to live in - especially if you consider the hight of the roof!

I have put up wallpapers in the livingroom as well, but there is an ugly floor in there so far so it will take some time before I have decorated the whole house..

I'm shocked how fun this was! Gonna do a total remake of the house.

Busy with birthday baking

Phuh, this week is Autumn holiday week for school kids so I've had the kids at home almost every day this week <3
Been a good mum and made them bake, watched Lego StarWars movie, painted and play games with them all week. It's been very nice, but GOD it left me drained. I can't wait until Monday when they start school again!
Tomorrow is TeeBee's Birthday party for the relatives so I have a LOT to do.
I've done a few things so far...(but the stupid video didn't want to be uploaded...)

V-log: Blood pressure

Am I really alive?
