I've sat down to write an actual life-update several time over the last month and just keep failing at really getting anything down. I'm either too tired or my computer just frustrates the hell out of me and I give up, or I just can't get my thought out properly. As it is, I'm sure this post will be more disjointed than I would like.

Finally felt motivated to work on my project tonight. Sewed very slowly and with much precision. Results so far are good. Crappy web cam photos behind the cut. Hopefully by tomorrow night my batteries will be charged and I can take nicer progress photos.
