A True Webmistress!

I've been planning on posting on my blog since I woke up, but am so easily distracted, it's taken about six hours!

What have I been up to, you ask?




Well, I didn't fall asleep until 1pm yesterday - but before I dozed off, I called and invited my ungrateful boyfriend to dinner tonight, as I'd been planning this pasta recipe I invented weeks ago. We were to enjoy:

- linguine with yellow squash and arugula in a lemon-goat cheese sauce 
- heirloom tomato salad with chickpeas, Parmesan and basil
- fresh whole wheat bread

Of course, he never called back. And I woke up at 9pm. 


Whatever.


Despite this shabby treatment, I continued designing custom high-tops for his birthday. I'm an idiot. 




Although I try to refrain ranting about my deadbeat boyfriend, the unexpected upside was I polished up my Photoshop skills  - 
I then decided to do a little shopping for MYSELF on ebay, where I'm debating the purchase of this sexy little number - 




But I'm so completely broke, even $23 is a stretch! 


And then...bad news.


As I stated on this blog earlier, I put a bunch of vintage clothes and shoes that don't fit me on ebay. But, seeing as I have no common sense, I managed to end the auction on a Saturday night! This pair, brown suede go-go boots from the 60's - 


(is my gold mannequin not awesome?)

...went for a meager $10.50! This is annoying on three different fronts. a.) I bought them for $75. b.) I immediately get emails from bidders who missed out, asking to "remember them" if the buyer backs out, and c.) The winning bidder is refusing to pay the shipping cost! I stated in my auction international bidders must contact me to arrange payment. The winner is in Poland. Shipping to Poland is $45, which was a shock to me, too! Of course, I receive no contact. I kindly offer to cancel the sale. This woman writes back and calls me a "fraud," despite the cited shipping rate coming from USPS. 

And, of course, demands I ship her these boots, yet has paid nothing. 
Thankfully, I contacted ebay and if she doesn't pay the full rate by Sunday, I can cancel her order - and they'll rescind her negative feedback and report her as a non-paying bidder!

AWESOME!


For once, ebay actually comes through and does the right thing! 

Then, I continued my internet spree. I finally downloaded Dream Weaver and I'm so excited to start learning html and making my own websites!

Speaking of websites...

You'll notice I've, yet again, revamped "Adventures in Panties" - I added a bunch of "about me" lists and a long list of cool artists, musicians and writers at the bottom. My plan is to eventually link all of them to the appropriate Wikipedia/IMDB/Netflix page and let blog readers discover new faves of their own!

(I'm so altruistic.)


I checked my current auctions - my yellow thong is up to $55 with five days left to go! I can't wait to start tossing up more photos and "updates" to sweeten the final deal, because I was a little bummed that my super-fun black thong auction ended, today. Let's see what it went for - $117!!!

Earlier today, I made this "goodbye, auction" video, and posted it on YouTube - 
...and I also plan on putting a direct link to my new YouTube channel on the blog! 

Please note I've added a new "link list," specifically for lingerie and fetish related sites. I added two more sellers - "Italian Goddess" is another ebanned panty-seller (great if you're looking for someone a little more, well, buxom than myself) and Seleena K, a lovely transsexual gal offering not only her own photos, but photo-editing services! I've been chatting with Seleena on Twitter and it's great to link to someone in the fetish industry who doesn't strictly advertise fetish work!
I'm still planning my post referencing other panty/sock-lovin' girls (and maybe guys!) - just waiting to hear back from a few people! 

It's also WAY easier to contact me - I shifted the "follow Kammi" portion of the site around. Initially, I placed a "chat" gadget but removed it because it showed my whole friend list! Still working out the kinks!
Ok, back to work! I need to update the "panties of the week," toss up more photos of my yellow thong - 


...plus answer my emails, photograph and prepare this sweaty red shirt for a lucky customer - 


...AND re-do my profile on, like, 20 different websites AND, post a new auction for these white, thigh-high socks - 


Wow...just writing that tired me out! Maybe I need a nap.

Or an assistant.

And for what?!

Maybe I got my expectation too high, with the rolling thunder of last week's panties - take one last look at them, because they're gone by tomorrow - 


They're over $100 now, but I was planning on two super special add-ons, so I highly suggest you bid on them. 

Anyway, I'm still high on the freight train of my black thong auction, so I decide to take a gamble and put up panties I've been saving for a while - my HOT HOT yellow thong - 








Plus, I drew all over myself for the photo shoot (you know, the spur of the moment photo shoot as described in my previous post) -




People are always complimenting my nipples - I thought this would go over well...


And then I post what I honestly believe to be the sexiest photo of me ever - 

 (I know I just fouled up the blog format - it was worth it)

And a few other nudes, of course, with my signature star to avoid Flickr's filter - here they are, in their original state:


(really hoping this doesn't get taken down, merely for being sheer!)

 

I have a whole arsenal of shots I didn't use - waiting in the wings. As usual, I like to post more images as I up the ante.

But what really sucks, is Amaya ends up taking a couple of stunning portraits of my face, particularly - 


And...


And this...which turned out to be my favorite...


I love this photo and immediately used it as a thumbnail...and ended up looking insane. This photo is beautiful when large, but in a smaller version, I have this evil look in my eye like I'm going to potentially murder the panty buyer! I had taken an alternate, my usual thumbnail, where I do an "eye-pop" - 

 
...that's where I open my eyes real wide and make them pop out of my skull a little...yeah, real sexy description. Obviously, it didn't work this time around. 

"Shit," I thought! I'll have bids in second and then  the thumbnail is forever horrifying! I raced through photoshop -

(don't get the wrong idea, here - I've been using photoshop lately to adjust the lighting and color in images. Not to, like, remove extra appendages, add extra decolletage, or slim myself)
I was desperately trying to adjust the color enough to catcha viewers attention. Eventually, I went with this - 


I let out a sigh or relief - it's bright, it shows my face, and it's eye-catching.

Yet I have no bids.

I usually have bids within the minutes!
And here's the other thing...it took hours to create that auction...hours!

And to think I was planning on adding a sock auction tonight, too! And finished going through my emails! And working on a huge video piece I'm making on cimmision!

And designing custom converse sneakers for my horrible, horrible boyfriend who seriously BLOWS - he's on his last straw!
AND I LOST THE BOOTS I WANTED ON EBAY!

Sometimes, nothing works. Regardless of how good you look in your panties!

Passing out, now - Oh, yeah - this is the link to seethe auction for my yellow thong -


I'll update the rest of the blog, tomorrow! And maybe a video "hello!"

Falling asleep,

-Kammi

NEED NEW PHOTOGRAPHER!

I originally started composing this post a few hours ago - ranting about my insomnia...

(I have to take meds to fall asleep a few nights a week - yes, they are prescribed to me! - I took my meds yesterday and thought they weren't working, so I took a few more - and passed out at my computer...witness my bizarre tags at the bottom of last night's post! ANYWAY, I woke up at 3pm, still in a daze, and attempted to get work done, but fell asleep again! I re-woke at 6pm, naked with my computer on my stomach, hand in a box of triscuits, bottle of now-boiling-hot pineapple juice nearby. Ugh.)

...I took a few shots this morning when I woke up, wearing this yellow thong I've been touting for the past week - 



(first, before I figured out the cam...)



I even recorded a "Good morning/Good evening" video:



(sorry if the quality sucks - I'd prefer to upload on YouTube, but fear flagging - much like whoever decided to "alert" the Photobucket/Flickr about my completely harmless photos!)

These super cute BRIGHT YELLOW PANTIES are, frankly, some of the nicest I've ever offered and I've been DYING to post an auction for them!

But have been pretty screwed in the photography department, with Amaya returning to school, and all.
Imagine my excitement when she came out of her room and suggested we do a photoshoot! 

She took a shower, I took a shower.
She went in her room while I dolled up - 

 




 

Yikes, what a weird expression! My best friend calls that the "I'm not hungry" face!



That time it worked...aside from the central screenshot resembling Norma Desmond.

Back to my (boring) story.

I am now in the living room. Dolled up. On the couch. I've got an amazing idea for a photo shoot.


Amaya fell asleep.


Oh. Good.

WAIT! SHE WOKE UP! 

Let's roll!
