So, it's that time again. Costume College is right around the corner, and once again, I find myself strangely dreading it. It's been an absolutely ridiculous year and I've had almost no time for personal sewing (or much sewing at all), so I don't really have anything to wear, certainly nothing appropriate for the 18th Century theme, and not even ( Read more... )

I was trying not to dwell on all the life craziness last year, so I don't think I said much about it after the first occasion when Amy caught me thinking about it. Here's hoping there's less to hide from this time around. But since my grandmother is in excellent health and I already had my epic break-up for the year - the odds seem good.

Thanks for the kind words, and I assure you that I will track you down and possibly glom onto you unreasonably. But I respond well to being shooed, so it is possible to escape. =)
