Well, at the moment, after trying calculated weirdness, non-calculated
weirdness, a brief flirtation with Gothic and a rather longer one with
anonymoty I am currently toying with 1930s glamour queen - stately aloof
jetsetting know-it-all from one of Evelyn Waugh's non-comic novels, fluent
in art, literature and cocktail recipies. Seems to do the trick. I am the
kind of girl who makes it absolutely who's in control so this seems to fit
in quite well.
How about the rest of you then ???
