Cassie's Meme and other things
So I need to be continuing to work on this article, but instead I'm writing a journal entry.
Lailiane's dress gets finished tonight, which is good - because I got my copy of The Tudor Tailor in the mail just now, and I am really excited to take some time to look at it.
Guilt also because I ended up buying that black salwar I posted here when the seller relisted it - the one trimmed in pink. Got that today too. It' a nice light cotton, and I think I can take it in enough to fit me right. The pants are actually pretty small for that Indian stuff, but the dress is obviously made for a girl with real clevage. If I can't take it in, I have many friends that it will fit, so no loss of a ridiculous $10. I like bargains.
Good news for Seth - his employer in Baton Rouge loves him, and is trying to provide some opportunities for free lance stuff up here. Hopefully that will work out while he's doing the bigger job search. Also looks like at least he wil get to Lillies, and maybe me too.
I think I'm about a decade too old for this meme, when all the school questions make me think of grad school, and I can't get through it without a few smart ass comments added to the ends.
