I don't remember saying "what's mine is yours"
I am suddenly seriously pissed off! I have just discovered that someone, some person with no respect for personal belongings, has eaten half of the cocnut-lime ice cream I had been saving! I mean yes it was in the freezer for a very long time (since June, I think), but it was mine, and there's really no way someone could have mistaken it for their own, and I was SAVING it for a day when I really needed a dessert for whatever reason (like today) but someone decided that thieving someone else's ice cream was more important. THANKS A LOT. Seriously is it so difficult stick to your own groceries? This makes me feel like I'm living with Caroline and Randy again - even putting your name on it didn't help there, and God forbid they ever pay you back or replace it like they always claimed they would. ARGH very few things anger me more than food theft. I will give you things if you ask (sometimes even all of it). But DO NOT JUST TAKE THEM. Plus I have no idea WHEN this might have happened because I assumed that it would be safe in the freezer because no one would look and go "ooh I don't remember buying that but it must have been me and not one of the 4 other people who live in this house - let's have that!" This is why we can't have nice things.
In slightly happier news, we went to the fabric shop today. We got cheap horrible fabric for mock-ups, we got a nice dark brown linen for pants, and some sheeting for shirts - the white linen I would have gotten was WAY too transparent to work properly. But no one will care too much, I think, if our shirts look like they were made from bedsheets.
I was frustrated by neither the proper fabric store nor John Lewis having anything like what I was looking for for the coats - we found something almost workable for avatar1983's, but nothing approaching usable for mine. Alas. I am resorting to the internet, where there seem to be only very few more options. I KNOW Jo-Ann's or Hancock would have this at home - why is it so difficult to get here? Bleh. We shall see what happens.
So I guess today has gone from borderline positive to extremely frustrating and really pretty crap in a very short period of time. I was going to watch something I've never seen, but both my options lined up seem wrong for this sort of mood, so I will pull out some comfort movie and go from there, I think. Bleh.
