I'm feeling lazy as hell this morning, and it's been a while since I did a meme (that whole not being able to read my friends' list means that I'm missing all those deathless blog-filling memes that regularly get passed around), so here's one I stole from Shakesville:

Welcome to the 2009 edition of getting to know your Friends. Blah blah blah:

I'm home today, adjusting to new supplemental pain meds (as in, I got no sleep last night.  None), and I'm trying to tidy the place (a monumental task), pull together things for this weekend, and keep my brain in my skull (it keeps trying to sneak away from me and watch videos on YouTube).

I feel really horrible that I haven't been posting comments ( Read more... )

If you want to read about the Christmas Turtle, go back one entry. This entry is a total linky cheat and meme-alicious. The turtle story will have a couple more entries before I leave for Christmas break, don't worry.

Just like a blog should be, right? Making hay off other people's work. Speaking of which:

...But I'm freakin' busy. Now that I have my new shiny high-speed internets at home, I might post from there later. Until then, you gets da meme:

...especially the Amway.

Dammit, meme sucked me in...

I am suddenly in charge of a massive (1,000 objects) QC project, so I'm going to be super busy for the next two weeks, as that's my timeline for completion. The third week I'm going to be down at the farm, so October is not going to be a great month for LJ entries.

I had an up and down weekend, filled with goods and bads. One bad came early on; I had ordered a beautiful 100% wool tweed suiting from Fabric.com, with the intention of making a rather nice Victorian hunting outfit. what came was 8 yards of completely unuseable green knit, not suiting, not tweed, and most certainly not 100% wool. This is ( Read more... )

I apologize for the lack of posting yesterday; I had the worst day I've had in a long time, and driving, typing, and even doing laundry was pretty much out of the question.  I spent most of the day lying on the sofa with a book propped up on pillows, because holding it was too uncomfortable.
