Today was very nice--I went to see Julie & Julia (and thought it was darling and so enjoyable) with Mom and sister and Mom's sister and Angel and Angel's mom, then did a little exploring with Angel (farmer's market = disappointing) then we went to my house to make pretzels. Which were also disappointing. Pretzel dough has, what, four ingredients ( Read more... )

Today I was thinking about Arthurian legends. A few weeks ago during the writing group after-party, we were discussing wastelands because Z had a wonderful line in her most recent chapter. Her character has encountered an old man, and thinks 'He is the wasteland' (or something very similar--sorry Z! I can't remember it exactly now). It was one ( Read more... )

So, yesterday: stuff happened.

I know, shocking, right?

I nearly fell asleep at my desk, for one. I'm not sure what's going on, there--I seem to be waking up a lot during the night, and then it takes forever for me to be alert in the morning. See, when the alarm goes off, I wake up...but I don't wake up enough for things like alarms and getting ( Read more... )

And I finally managed to scan all of the Harlequin Masquerade design (I had to come to the computer lab to do it) based on merimask's Harlequin Romance Mask. Yay me!

Now I should be doing Astronomy homework but I'm....not. Imagine that. I did go and get a new ID--my very last semester and I lose my student ID. Three whole years of never losing my ( Read more... )

Children are surreal creatures. Evita didn't have anyone to watch Demetrius during a couple of performances of The Fantasticks, so she brought him along and I stayed with him in the Green Room. The first night I was tired enough to get really hyper, and we chased each other around the make-up room (when everyone was onstage--when people had to ( Read more... )

I should post more. And I should write about actual things, instead of just blathering randomly--my f-list is full of awesome people, and y'all deserve the meatiest parts of my brain in a sundae dish, instead of brain farts in a plastic bottle ( Read more... )

So Mom thinks the numbness in my right pinkie finger might be a symptom of carpal tunnel syndrome ( Read more... )

Nooooo! Charis is plagued with misfortune! First she gets distracted and misses Supernatural, then she discovers she's missed two episodes and how did that happen? then she decides that watching them online from the home computer is just not bearable, it's impossible to properly appreciate the hotness and the coolness if the video stream is going ( Read more... )

Pretty! *pets*

I'm so tired--I was only really sick-feeling for about a day, and relatively spacey for the next, and then I was all better, except for being exhausted. The past couple of days I've slept really deeply but not very long, and it has been incredibly hard to get up in the morning, which makes me cranky. Sort of. I'm very chill at ( Read more... )

First, before I do anything else: Look what I did! Now that Christmas is over I can show everyone the shiny paintings that I did for my sisters as their presents without them seeing the links! (they don't use deviantArt, but Rachel at least sees my blog sometimes)

For Melody: Melody's Dance -- watercolors and silver embossing, 5 hours sketch, 20+ ( Read more... )
